At first these shoes were good in looks and comfort. However the crease at the top of the left boot became painful after only 6 weeks of wear as it hit the instep in the wrong place and the soles were already quite worn - very disappointing when I wore them. only for 6 weeks and then only to work an 8 hour shift, 5 nights a week. I've returned to my off-brand shoes for comfort and durability, and I'm annoyed that I can't return them due to the ridiculously short amount of time. Nunn Bush has produced a lemon in them, so DON'T BUY THEM!
