These boots just arrived today and I've had them on for 6 hours now. I don't know how they will hold up but I can tell you it"s an amazing boot. Got mine in Burnished Tan. I first put them on and thought oh no wrong size! Then they began to stretch and they fit perfectly now. These are like tanned skin versus the leather I've always worn. This is a whole other breed of boot. I'm not sure how but they breathe unlike other shoes, boots i've worn. I suggest ordering an extra wide size anyway. They do run true to size. They are definately head turners, and everyone will be wondering what you are wearing.
