I purchased these this year and haven't umpired very many games at all in these shoes. I will say that after only a couple games there were a few wrinkles around the toe on one of my shoes. I think these wrinkles have some bearing on the comfort of the shoe. They are great shoes, and look great! They are kind of heavy, though.
Something else that I'll add - it appeared that when packaged, they were squished into a box. This pushed the toe plates to one side and they naturally slightly bend to one side. Again, this is mainly only on one of the shoes.
