These boots are EVERYTHING!!! I traveled thru 6 countries in Europe, in the winter time, for an entire month, wearing NOTHING but these boots. Before I left, I add Dr. Scholl's gel soles for extra comfort (and the boots were a little big for my narrow feet.) I walked 6+ miles a day, and was out all day long. Kept my feet warm, dry, and comfortable for the majority of my day. Towards the end of each day, my feet did get tired, but it was more due to the amount of walking, than the boots.
