I felt like a traitor ordering these. I've been a 'Georgia Boot' and 'Belleville' boot man all my life. I even assumed, incorrectly, that these were just rebranded 'Georgia Boots'.
These are better than the 'Georgia Boot' Romeo's hands down.
I put these on the morning they arrived and headed to work (Blue Collar American here...) and ordered a second pair the minute I got home.
DO GO a half size larger... you'll be glad you did.
