I was looking for a good American made boot. These boots certainly fill that need. The leather is top shelf and the stitching is of high quality.  I have had these boots for a few weeks and they are worn in well. The comfort level is great. It would have been better to provide a thicker set of laces. Also, even though I got the EE wide, they are rather narrow. Overall, I would readily recommend these boots to anyone looking for excellent quality and performance in a fairly moderate price range. Well worth the cost.
