This is my third pair and are by far one of the most comfortable boots I own (again) the price tag is a bit on the expensive side for some including myself but its worth the sacrifice. I regretted getting stingy and going with model brand type and was always disappointed. Some where comfortable but came apart after some use maybe 3 or 4 months. These great boots last a year or more with daily heavy use and if you them to chill they last for ever. Im so glad I went back to these. Fantastic comfort and quality is what you get with these bad boys. Ive seen some reviews on here that say the fall apart but Ive never had that problem. Sometimes people get defective boots or sometimes even imitations. Never an issue with mine. I love them and never plan to go back to cheaper boots. You really do get what you pay for. I get about 2 years of normal use.
