I loved everything about these boots except for the quality.  The leather around the bottom part, (the part that covers the foot) is so thin that you can actually see through it in  few spots, and it looks stretchy and almost flakey.  It is also a visibly different color than the rest of the boot.  I wonder if this was just the boots that I got, because no one else seemed to have this issue.  I wanted to keep them, but I wore them around the house and my guy asked me why the bottom color was different than the rest of the boot...  :(
