Received these as a birthday gift because my old boots wore out. Normally I do not use this brand; however, they were a gift so I figured sure why not and if they were nicer than maybe I'd continue to buy these instead; well not going to happen now. Not as comfortable as my other boots but they were decent, until the second wear.  Second wear and the top left clasp snapped off, the hook to lace up the shoe laces with.  Now obviously they can still tie lower but it's not as supportive and you can feel the difference! After only 2 wears that shouldn't happen.  Disappointed and I will never personally purchase a pair of these boots.

-- The only 2 times I wore them was very MINOR flat walking trails around a lake where we walked maybe 5-10 minutes to a fishing spot and back. So it's not like they were put to abuse by any means.
