What a great way to order these boots which are dang near impossible to find in Erie, PA!  Oh, you can order them from Macy's or whatever but it's about $10 more expensive that way.  I was soooo pleased that I could find the boots on amazon.com and that they were cheaper...and the order came in about 5 days!
Boots are super warm but my suggestion would be to of course treat them with a protectant if you live where there is bound to be lots of salt on the road in the winter.  Yes, there are many generic brands of this boot but if you have the money and your kid has been good, then invest in them!  Very sturdy!
