These were described as new. They are NOT new.  Came laced but untied, no cardboard or paper in boot, noticeable crease as if worn, and a scuff on the toe of right boot. No wear on the inside of boot so I think they were a return, relisted as new. They were a great sale price but still 60.00. I will keep them cause its a pain in the ass to return them. I love the boot but even at 60.00 had I known I would not have bought them. 60.00 is alot to pay for scuffed boots.
