I always walk my dog by the pond, she always finds some new piece of trash to play with, and we always end the walk with her walking said trash to the garbage.
Prefect fit in the heel cup and where my arch lands. Snug but not tight in the toes. I have skinny ankles so I need to cinch the top 5 holes/speed hooks all the way, but it does work and feels dug and supportive.
Arrived with a lot of “natural character” as you should expect with most Meermin boots. The waxy shell has a slight nap, which is the most prominent on the vamp and almost non existent on the heel counter and toe cap. The tongue is incredibly pliable and unlined.
