This are decent for the price.  I have a 12 year old that is very hard on things.  She wanted uggs but I couldn't see spending that much on shoes she would destroy in a month.  She loved these.  They lasted they entire Ohio winter.  She played in the snow in them and she never complained that her feet were wet even though they aren't water proof.  (I did spray them with a sealant that I use on leather sorry not sure the name it's pretty standard though)  I ordered her the same size she always wears and they were a little big on her and the more she wore them the bigger they got.  But other then that they are still wearable......that is u usual for this kid.  She is so rough on things.....she said they were comfortable and warm.
