“The positive: they look great.
The not so positive: had to replace the laces in the first week. They are not a work shoe, strictly for style. I made the mistake of buying these to be work boots after I worked for years in my slip ons. The soles are different than my slip ons - they are slippery and feel a bit cheap. The fabric liner inside is less comfortable than the leather lined boots.
Basically, if you only care about looks go for it. If you want to hike or work or do any amount of extended walking in these then go for a different boot as these KILLLL your Achilles and heel.
Although, they’re painful to work in I’ll continue to wear them bc they were expensive. Hopefully, the “oh those are cute” comments keep me strong.”
