I love how they look, great little rain boots, thought they were sneakers when I bought them, but they are rubber, the laces are much eider apart on one shoe and you have to be careful and tighten one by one if you want it tighter or loose, the top metal thing that the lace goes threw busted busted out of the shoe the first time I tightened them with no efforts, I just skip the first set and you cant really tell..
