This is my 3rd pair so obviously I like them. They are perfect for my job but they only last 2 winters. On the 2 pair I've had all 4 boots crack on the same place, on the side just behind my big toe. All 4 boots. No coincidence, that's where they crease when I walk. Too bad because the rest of the boot is 100% "as new". They have replaced one pair within the warranty period so actually I've had 3 pair and this will be my 4th.
