These are very nice boots to wear either casually or professionally. I have received multiple compliments when wearing them.  They are stylish enough to wear with jeans, but tailored enough to also wear with slacks or a business suit.

Before ordering these, I returned another boot that cost more, but was made of faux leather.  That boot was not nearly as comfortable as this one, nor was it a good value compared to this boot.

The leather on these is soft and supple. The boot has a nice, supportive rubber sole with platform, and is extremely comfortable.

I have a prior fractured metatarsal, which makes it very difficult for me to wear a boot with a 3" heel.  However, this boot is so comfortable, I can wear these all day, and remain pain-free.
