Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this for my work shoes because the previous pair I owned wore out after about 8 months. I thought it was a fluke because I had a pair from a year earlier that are still wearable, and super comfortable. They just don't look as nice as they used to for wearing them at work. This pair is terrible, the laces wore out first, the freaking laces wore out?!? I had to buy new laces and a shortly after replacing them both soles under the front of the shoe cracked and now water gets in them. I can't wear them anymore. I wrote this review because I'm back on amazon looking for a replacement pair but I honestly don't know what to do. Are there honestly any shoe manufacturers left that make a decent pair of comfortable shoes? I'm not buying another pair of rockports, for this price the shoe should last at least a year, I'm walking around an office not playing rugby all day.
