For the price, these boots (the black combat style with the grey and black cloth at the tops) are a great value. You could certainly get a better boot by paying more, but I doubt you'll find a better one for a comparable price - and you can certainly find a LOT worse. Fit is comfortable and roomy, no squished toes even with my inserts. Can't speak to durability yet, but they're comfortable and cute. Only caveat is to not get too excited about the lovely zipper pockets, as they will not unzip on either boot, even with pliers. Overall, I'd buy them again. (In fact, I will, if they ever get the wine ones in my size!)
