The shoe were ok but not leather
I have had these boots for a little over a month so far, and they are very comfortable. It only took a day or 2 to break them in. I did replace the laces they came with and put black leather laces on instead. The laces it came with are pretty stiff.So far I have worn these in the rain and snow and they keep my feet dry and warm. But have not stepped in and big puddles yet.The only sort of downside is the soles do squeak a bit if they are wet and only while walking on the tile floor at work. Not sure if that will go away once the tread wears down a bit. But it doesn't squeak on other hard surfaces like hardwood floors or smooth concrete like in my garage.
