This year's winter made me invest in these boots because I spend a lot of time outdoors and really needed something waterproof, and this model lived up to that perfectly. I tested the footwear during heavy snowfall, walked through deep drifts, and the boots didn't let any water in. They are very sturdy—at the construction site they were exposed to dust and debris, yet the material shows no damage. After the first wash and waterproofing, I want to maintain their properties. The only downside is that the suede became a bit stiff, but it doesn't affect wearing comfort—I'll see how it holds up over time. The sole is very soft, and even at -12°C and spending time outside in thick socks, my feet didn’t get cold and I always felt comfortable.
