These are the first boots I've ever tried that actually felt GOOD. In the past I've had to find the most acceptably comfortable boot. And as someone with knee troubles that flare up when I wear shoes with bad support, and who has had plantar fasciitis in the past, these boots also have great support. What's more, they look awesome, functionally stylish. Wear some striped designer socks, roll your pants up into a short cuff and you'll stick out in a good way. Get 'em.
