These boots are just what I have been looking for. I like the stability (and look) of a low, squared-off heel which provides stability and the leather is very good quality.  These are semi dressy to casual boots that look equally nice with dress trousers or jeans.  The toe is not too pointy and this design looks classic, not clunky or too trendy.  This is a classic boot that is quite lightweight.  The zipper was a bit stiff but I lubricated it and now it works smoothly. They broke in quite quickly and I can wear them all day without pain with my small insoles that I use in every pair of boots I own.  I have owned them for many months now and they are showing no noticeable wear on the sole.  These were worth every penny I paid for them and I also have a pair in the brown color.
