Waterproof Leather Boots for Men & Women - Oxford Merton Style | Durable & Comfortable for Hiking, Work, and Outdoor Adventures

I almost didn't buy these after reading a lot of the reviews but I'm glad I did. Usually, you get a good sense of the product from the reviews, but for these, the reviews are all over the place. I'm giving them 5 stars and think they're good boots. They are comfortable and require no break-in for hours of use right out of the box.Other reviews kind of questioned the validity of the seller and there were a couple of odd things about the order, but nothing that would force me to lower the review or return the product.I ordered Brown and they came in a box labeled Black. The boots were kind of a very dark brown/almost black. After a day of riding the shifter spot looked very brown so I checked the boot more closely and it looked like someone took a brown boot and applied black polish to it. So I wiped them down with alcohol, a lot of black came off the boots, and now they are just regular dark brown - which is what I wanted.Sizing: I regularly wear size 9.5, so I ordered size 9.5 and they fit perfectly. Several reviews said the sizing was off but I didn't find that to be the case. I only have one other brand of shoes/boots that are Euro-sized and I am consistently a size 42 in that brand. These boots were listed as 9.5 US/43 Euro - but they fit well anyway. Your experience may vary.The boots themselves appear well made - the stitching, zippers, laces and gusset all work well and appear to be very good quality. I like the overlaid leather strap on the toe to prevent or slow down shifter wear on the boot.All in all, I have no complaints, I'm happy with the boots and I hope they last.
