I am now going into my fourth season with these boots.  They remain my everyday backcountry touring boots.  I am putting over 1200kms per season on them.  They still perform as well as they did the first season.  The leather is still in excellent shape- this is likely due to the excellent full-rubber rand, and the fact that I meticulously maintain them.  Treating the flex point every time you take them off, makes a huge difference.
