The Tour Ultras are very comfortable and light weight.  The toe cap on the pushoff foot is replaceable, so if you drag that foot, you don't have to worry about the sole separating from the upper shoe.

the only negative i have found in all of my research is that they are narrower than most of the other top brands, & ive heard from 1 or 2 people that they couldnt find a slide combo they liked.  

Both people that couldnt find a slide combo REALLY liked a certain slide combo from dexter & couldnt find an exact match on the tour ultras.

Other than that, ive never heard anything bad about them

I have both the Tour Ultras and Sport Ultras - the difference is the addition of sole with circular cleats that come standard with the Tour Ultras.  They both are very light and comfortable shoes.  If you can't find a sole/heel combination, you can also buy the adjust-a-heel.  This particular heel comes with replaceable strips that are attached with velcro on the front of the heel.  These strips are the same as what you can purchase for your dynothane sole replacements, so excess material can be used to both the sole and heel - a very nice feature.

I've got the Tour Ultras.  I switched from Dexter.

I love these shoes.  With dexter I had problems with the velcro loosening up plus I never found a slide/sole combo I liked.

With dynothane, I've actually found a slide / sole combo with the regular pads they offer as well a cleated combo

They are very comfortable and I would recommend them to everyone.

If I had to choose a "dislike"-I suppose it would be the shoelaces.  The silver metallic on them makes it look a little too flashy-not that it matters..but thats about the only thing "wrong" with them.
