If you get the "Times" model, the upper will separate from the soul pretty quick. I took some super glue to it and they held up fine.
It wasn't till the coating started to peel on the upper when I replaced them.
I guess when the shoes were made in South America they were veru durable, but they started making the in China and that's when the separation issue started I believe.
The shoe is very comfortable (for me at least) and won't set off the x-ray at non KCM airports.
I got a pair about 2 months ago, paid about $45 for them at Famous Footwear.

I've got nearly 2 years on them now. The uppers are still in great condition, the tread is starting to show a bit of wear, but I do walk the terminals on long sits so they get a lot of mileage. They are very comfortable and metal free. Plus, they look good and won't break the bank.

I wear polished Black Ariat ropers, most comfortable footwear I own and they hold up to de-ice fluid much better than your average dress shoe. Purchased them 3 years ago now and still haven't had to have the soles done which I was told was simple and cheap...
