THE BOOT IS LIGHTWEIGHT, READY TO USE BUT MINES CAME WITH A DEFECT IN THE FRONT OF THE FOOT WHEN I duck THE LEATHER TOUCH MY ANKLE AND CAUSE LITTLE PAIN ON MY LEG. THE INSOLE IS NOT AS COMFORTABLE AS I THOUGHT SO CAN RESULT A BIT HARD WHEN YOU ARE STANDING UP  FOR A LONG TIME BUT WALKING FEELS GOOD...... WORKS GOOD ON THE TERRAIN.
