I have a pair and use them every day for commuting. For $69, you can't beat the value. They are lightweight, breathe well, offer decent protection and I find them very comfortable. The protection isn't enough for the track, but they still compare favorably to other boots I've had, with toe, ankle and shin protection that I think would do well in a street getoff.
At first, I wasn't a fan of walking in them, but put in a pair of new insoles to good effect. The stretch panel on the back of the boot is showing some signs of wear after a few months -- there is no way they are going to make it to the end of their 5 year warranty. But in the meantime, they are doing their job very well in the hot weather I ride in.
