These boots are VERY difficult for me to put on. For one thing, there is a cloth bunch inside the back of the boot (similar to a pull tab), that serves abosolutely no purpose, and every time I try to put them on this "thing" goes downward & it is a struggle to get it back up. Also, the eyelets where the laces go are WAY to tight, and it's impossilbe to pull them through to make the laces pull tight to tie them. I paid good money for these boots, and I struggle with them EVERY time I need to put them on. I noticed they are actually made in Korea, and perhaps SOMEONE should try them on and test them before sending them for shipment. Roger

Incredibly comfortable. I wore them for a three mile hike in the woods on a very cold day the first day I used them and my feet were very warm all day. And that is very unusual for me. I think the shoes are great so far. I have only owned them for a few weeks so I did not check all the positive boxes but I am very happy.
