This pair of boots is decent for the great price.
While the rubber soles don’t quite give the boots an authentic look, they make them VERY comfortable. I’ve no doubt that these soles will hold up just fine. The slight treads are also a good touch.
The laces are raw-edged strips of leather, so be careful when tugging on your knots. I’ve already snapped a lace, but it’s a simple fix so not really an issue.
If you are between sizes, go bigger! When paired with some thick wool socks, these fit snugly.
