I forget how to tie laces...

Ranked #110 - Men's Trail Run Shoes

These a super sneaks. They are fairly durable and have survived a lot of backpacking for me. I have hauled 40 pound loads for 40 odd miles and these have dutifully supported my knees and back. The GTX is not that breathable, so I wouldn't recommend these for casual wearing. I find they run a bit narrow. I've not had a lace break (yet) and I love not having to tie laces - especially wet, muddy, or frozen laces! Great sneaker.
