Well these are comfortable, sized well, and look great under my desk at work. As a word of warning these are probably not going to be great farm boots. The leather is thin and these will get battered pretty easily. I bought these for urban use and they are certainly great for that. I've walked the dog in these, stomped around on plenty of rainy Oregon days, powered right through puddles and wet grass with no issue and the additional ankle support, for those of you who stand a lot, is very welcome. There was a brief 2 day break in, then I only wanted to wear these boots. I alternate between these and my Doc Martins for business casual work wear and they are fantastic for that and are a great value for the money.
