The shoes have a terrible defect, they completely missed the sewing station on one of the shoes causing the sole to fall off. They didn't even last 30 days. I tried to contact the globe to inquire about the manufacturer's warranty against defects but received no response. I guess I have to switch brands after 7 years in the world. the picture shows the left boot with seams and the right boot without seams. It was not a discount item, I paid full price for these shoes.
