“First time getting the flat ‘open/roomy’ toed shoes, won't be the last. Lighter and more flexible than regular boots, thought the lack of extra cushion and rigidity could be a problem, thankfully wrong. Wore these boots hunting, and to work (lots concrete inside and large rocks outside). No problems, back doesn't hurt on concrete, the woods and rocks haven't been any more uncomfortable than usual and have gotten compliments on how they look (never happens). The sizing ordered was to their specs and at first thought they were to tight but after a week, they were correct, the leather formed and are the most comfortable pair of boots I have owned. … Handmade in the USA is the icing on the cake. Hope my other shoes will wear out so I can replace them soon. Thanks for the great craftsmanship.”
