Durability
Care Routine

They just evolved slowly. No huge creases, just molding to my foot. Care is basically nothing. My favorite pair of boots.

Satisfied with the Fit

Best fitting boot I’ve ever had.

Craftsmanship

Construction
Design

Classic design. One quirk I found is that water can get in at the base of the laces through a gap in the leather. Construction is flawless. Inside has a patch of rough out in the heel cup that keeps your heel locked in.

Final thoughts

Would Recommend

Always apprehensive when buy boots at this price point over the internet. They showed up and I was quickly put at ease. The box and packaging is impeccable. I pulled them out of the gorgeous bag and slid it on my foot. I was giddy. Never had a boot fit me so well and looked so sharp. They are a piece of art.
