Wet Conditions

I wore these boots mostly for work but also whenever I was traveling. I’ve been to NYC and Barcelona as well as hikes and some heavy rain. This boot took it all in stride

Patina Process
Break-In
Durability

Leather patina’d really quickly the first two months. Super easy to break in too, like a pair of sneakers. After that, it really held onto that look and did not need extensive maintenance

Satisfied with the Fit

The last is pretty comfortable, not super wide but I have narrow feet and they fit really well. Not much support for a boot but enough to be on your feet all day. Toe box is a little long but other than that it’s a great fit

Craftsmanship

Stitching

I really like the sleek look of the boots, Meermins QC leaves something to be desired however. A couple of wonky stitches and a slightly wavey midsole at the base of the heel were the issues I noticed but didn’t care too much about for the price

Sole & heel

Traction

Sole is fine in most cases but not the grippiest in the wet or adverse conditions. It’s a minor step down from dainite but close enough

Final thoughts

Good Value
Would Recommend

I would definitely rescind this pair for the price. I have other boots that are more built up but these are great for kicking around and amazingly durable low maintenance leather
