Have had these boots for a year and a half, they've been resoled twice, saddle soaped twice, and are wonderfully broken in.  My only complaint is that when they get wet from walking around in the rain, the leather shrinks and the boots feel tight for a couple days afterward.  Regardless, I love my boots.  I love that I feel good in them.  I did put gel inserts into the boots since I walk about 5 miles a day, makes a difference!
