U.S Divers 5mm Booties?

I found a great deal on these and I am wondering if anyone has any experience with them..
I would be ordering them on-line, and first and foremost- I am wondering if they run true to size...
They seem to be really good quality... They have a good sole with vulcanized rubber reinforcement "panels" on the top of the foot/ lower shin, and behind the heel/ ankle.
Can anyone give any input on how they hold up?
I rented a pair of Tilos boots this weekend and it was my opinion that they were junk... Sole was coming off of them in several places and the neoprene was wearing pretty badly at the point where the top of the foot pocket of the fin meets your ankle/ top of your foot.
That is why I like the design of the U.S. Divers boot- because they have re-inforcements there.
Thanks...

Well, I got mine in the mail this weekend, and they are VERY nice!!
I heard they run big. I normally wear a size 11, so I ordered size 10, and they fit perfect. The sole is nice n thick, and they are very good construction. I am very happy with these booties.
