These are great fitting boots. They are incredibly light. They are also very cool in the 100+ degree South Carolina summers. That said, they aren't worth the money being charged for them. Within a few months of daily outdoor law enforcement use, the stitching started to come loose and the individual parts of the shoe started separating. The mesh webbing started to fray. I realized that I had been duped into paying $120 for $40 Wal-Mart boots. In fact, I've gotten 2 years of service ON A BEAT from Wal-Mart boots. These didn't last 4 months without superglue. Speaking of Wal-Mart, I have a $25 pair of Avia sneakers there. When these completely ripped on me, I had to go back to my car and put them on. And by the way, those sneakers are 3 years old and also are worn daily, hiked in, and used in martial arts training. These boots have terrible quality control.
