Okay, so they're not the "nicest" pair of boots on the market. But you know, they're GREAT! Love the price. I use them when watering in a plant nursery, and found they're not so great (breathability-wise) if you plan to wear them all day. They're the perfect boot to change into or to keep on for a few hours as needed. Also, the lining started to peel loose on one boot after the second wearing, but it only peeled down a quarter of an inch, and has stayed put for several wearings since. And they look great spray-painted freeway-cone orange!
