These boots that i paid half the retail for will be purchased again at full price gladly


I had it repaired for a couple of dollars and they have been great since


I got these on clearance for less than half of what they go for at the retail price


They are a little expensive but i think they are worth it

Shipping


They arrived in just a couple days

Competitiveness


Spend wisely these are the best brand going


I enjoy them more than my previous boots which were vasque sundowners
