This is the second pair of boots I ordered...the others were not Clarks and had to be sent back because they did not fit around the ankles and they were more expensive!...these I am sooo glad I ordered...they are the most comfortable boots imaginable!!  I have received numerous compliments on the looks also but my bottom line is comfort and with the cushiony sole,unlike some other boots,these are definitely a keeper!!  Keep up the good work Clarks...from now on I will always order your boots!!
