Good quality, especially for the price. Leather seems like it will get a distressed look and become softer with wear. Good looking, classic lines, rugged sole and comfortable footbed. Rounded toe box seems a slight bit too long and narrow for my slightly-wider-than-medium-width foot, but hoping that once they're worn in a bit that they will fit even better. The buckle straps at the heel and top of the shaft add a riding boot quality and allow for customization in sizing. I hope that skinny jeans will fit to tuck in, but I don't think that there will be room for both them and my 14" calves. I'm also 5'3" with shorter legs and these are not too tall for me.
