When I received this boot, it seemed old. Like it had been sitting in a warehouse for a long time. But that wasn't the bigger problem. The boot was a small fit. I wear a size 9 and I literally could not even get it on my foot. I would recommend going a size up. I really thought this was going to be a nice quality boot and unfortunately it was far from it. I didn't like the feel. It felt like plastic and things were just not right about it, like out of place, the straps moved awkwardly and the buttons were not even all on. Disappointed. Had to return them.
