Love these boots! I already had a pair in a different color for over a year now and Ive loved them as well but theyve started to take on wear and tear so I wanted a nice new pair for next winter, I wear my other boots all the time so Im sure Ill wear these all the time as well. These boots are made to last, with my last pair I was able to walk through a river in Yosemite and my feet stayed dry!
