These boots are amazing! The quality is great, it doesnt Take much to break them in and they are water proof and durable!!  One of the best hiking boots Ive ever owned. I give o 4 out of 5 because the siding is a bit off. I read the reviews and bought a half size up and it was still too small so I returned and bought a full size up. Im normally a size 9.5 and I ended up with a 10.5 in this boot. Besides the size being off they are great!!
