I like these boots.  I ordered the acid black color and I expected them to be more black, but it's actually more like a silver color.  The boot leather is worn/roughed up a little, but it doesn't look bad.  I have arthritis (but I'm in my 20's) so really depend on comfortable shoes, but I like to be stylish.  These boots are comfortable.  They aren't warm at all, but that's what socks are for.  I'm not sure if they're waterproof but I wouldn't risk wearing these in a downpour or a snowstorm.  Overall, I'm pleased.  I also like that I can tuck in my pants or wear my pants over the boot.  They're the perfect height.  Also, my 3 year old likes that they make noise when I walk :)
