I love the boots. My right was crushed in 1978 with a lot of skin grafting. The boots are the best substitute for orthopedic shoes, they never tear my skin graft and give fantastic support to my right side. They fit like slippers, these boots should not be ignored, the quality is the best that you will ever find. Trust me on this one, I cant use any other boots with out damaging my graft. 10 STARS........

I wore both of these boots in the Yakutsk region of Siberia for three weeks on a sheep hunt and later on in the Kamchatka penninsula. They have incredible strength and ankle support if you're high and climbing in shale. They are the finest boots I have ever worn and I've worn most of them including military issue in the USMC.
