I bought these boots because the zipper on my old Teva boots, which I've had for 5 years, broke.  I needed something to arrive quickly that I could wear under dress pants as I was traveling on city streets on foot in winter.  these fit the bill.  and they were only 40 dollars.  I don't love the color of the sole, but the top is a nice suede and they feel good on.  they're not my favorite Tevas that I've ever had, but they are good quality and definitely wearable and comfortable.
