Best riding boots ever! I got these of riding (motorcycle) in the summer, because my feet would get really hot in regular boots. As aerosols, they are really comfy and I can walk in them for a long time. Plus they cover my feet and prevent it from being burned on the muffler.  Very sturdy, with no tearing or wearing so far. The zipper in the back does NOT rub on my heel, which I was worried about.
