I’ve had these boots for about five years now. I don’t just wear them for riding as they are comfortable enough for everyday use. The zippered side makes them easy to get on and off plus easy to air out if they get wet. About twice a year I’ll break out the polish and give them some attention and in doing so they have held up very well. I hope this particular boot stays in your lineup because if I ever decide to get another pair of boots I’d buy these again without hesitation.
