Review on Western Chief Toddler Little Charcoal Boys' Shoes by Jerry Anderson

My son started wearing these boots in October. He didn't wear them every day, maybe once or twice a week because they were a bit too big for him. Last month he came home in wet socks and I thought he was splashing in puddles. Now it's December and today I noticed that there are holes, tears in the sides and seams at the bottom. I was hoping for more durability from the Western Chief but these are like all other patterned rain boots - cute but short lived. For reference, I live where it rains a lot. He also has Western Chief short boots and they hold up better.
