I love these boots, I am always getting complemented on them. Plus they are extremely warm and don't let your feet get soaked if you are walking in thick snow or puddles. They are also very comfortable to walk in, I have walked the streets of NYC in them and my feet were not complaining. They are pricey but I think it is worth it, they are made to last and are the prefect winter boots for me. I also find it a big plus that they have the vibram soles.
