"The boots seem to be a solid boot. After looking for several days I finally found a nice fitting boot. I was looking forward to wearing and I've have worn now for a week or so.

My big complaint is the made in China on the box. After the green feet and membership for REI they tipped the scale at $231 for a boot made in China."
