Air Force 1 GORE-TEX Vibram

I've really enjoyed wearing the Nike Air Force 1 GTX. They keep the classic AF1 look that I love, but the GORE-TEX upper and Vibram outsole make them much more practical for rainy/cold weather. They feel sturdy and supportive underfoot, with better grip than regular AF1s, and the waterproof protection is great. They are a bit firmer and more structured than a standard AF1, but for everyday fall and winter wear, arr a great addition to my rotation.

Would give 5 stars but a crack formed on the vibram part of the sole on the right shoe after about 6 months of use as a work shoe and sounds like it's leaking air especially when it's wet out. Have to say though the grip is amazing for a Nike shoe, it's almost on par with actual slip resistant shoes. Water proofing works well. Also love that they left the vent holes as a template on the toe cause I opened up a few to make them wearable in the summer.

It looks very nice, but in the front where the shoe bends on top, it is uncomfortable for the feet. Shoelaces are far too long; no idea why they would do this.
