I wore these boots for everything. Simplicity is my favorite part of the dome. Traveling, no need to pack shoes, already wearing the boots. Getting ready, boots are sitting where I took them off, it's great. I traveled and hiked on three continents, in rain shine and snow. I wore them for basically everything from dancing on NYE to conductingairborne OPs.

Breathability

It has help up great, it is surprisingly supple and less stiff than other waxed flesh boots I have had. Break in was easy and fast, the boots were comfortable from day one and keep getting better. I didn't really have a break in process other than wearing the boots every day, but had no problems doing that. I cleaned the boots as necessary, usually just a quick brushing. When salt stains developed I would clean them with saddle soap and condition with Nick's conditioner.

Spokane Honey

It's a soft supple leather, I enjoyed the color change.

Sole & heel

Traction
Durability
Comfort

Very comfortable soles, traction and flexibility is great. I usually wear crepe soles in a day to day boot, these picked up dirt and mud much more than I am used to but that's to be expected.
