Hello, I wore dexters for years, from the original SST1's all the way up to the SST5's. I then decided to change to ABS because I had talked to several people and they were really talking up how comfortable they were. I purchased a pair of the tour ultras and I have to say as far as comfort they beat my SST5's hands down. I am sure the LX6's are cofortable also but I don't care for solid black shoes. I always have had good luck with dexters and would reccomend them to anyone but from a comfort stand point the ABS are hard to beat IMO anyway.

Good luck, cooksey

I wore a pair of Dexter SST1's for 8 years, great comfort/durability.

I wore a pair of Dexter SST5's for 2.5 years, good comfort/much less durable than my previous SSTs.  Inside lining ripped out, gold coloring flaked off (maroon/gold) model.

I had seen other odd durability issues with SST5's and the first run of SST6's.  So, I bought my Tour Ultras thinking they would be more durable and just as comfy as the Dexters.  After 1.5 years, they look like new and are amazingly comfortable (like a pair of slippers).  I love 'em.

Nizzo, I have already chnged to ABS and I did it because the only way to know if they are really good is wear them and verify the conditions for these shoes, I really glade and satisfy with those gems. The design, the materials and confort are better than Dexter, at least for me. So I decided to be wearing with ABS shoes for long time.
