Few thing says "Success" like being well-heeled, even when you're not a big success. I wanted to wait a full season to review these Giorgio Brutini Men's 66014 Boots, so that I could comment on how well they hold up. I'm glad to say that my heels, even after nearly a year, are still square and neat. The leather is fine enough to hold a good polish; looks killer with a military spit-shine. I can wear my rattiest T-shirt and jeans, but when I sport these Giorgio Brutini Boot, I appear to people as a sophisticated hipster. These are the classic boots you've been looking for--with a modern, economical price!
