I love OTBT & these boots didn't disappoint. The soles are really nicely cushioned and have a fair amount of arch support. The leather looks high quality and very smooth, and the heel is low enough for anyone to handle.
However - if you don't want to look like a pirate then these boots are not for you. I don't really want to look like a pirate, so sadly the boots are going back. If you don't mind some pirate action then these boots are for you!
