These may look a bit rough around the edges but that’s because I’m a painter. In truth I’ve worn these boots 9or10 times and they were bought brand new a year ago. There are no odors , no rips or tears in the leather or the inner leather cuff. There are no dings on the toes and I never got them wet or sweat in them. I’m cutting a great deal because they aren’t aesthetically what they used to be but don’t be fooled …they are the best work boots you can buy because of anti fatigue and they are fully functional as well as gently worn.
