I've had these boots for a few weeks and love them. On the few cold days we've had so far here in Charleston, they've held up great - even against oyster beds. There aren't any seams or gaskets on the inside to rub my feet raw. There are very few nooks and crannies on the outside which makes for easy clean-up. The adjustable strap keeps them from constantly slipping down. They could have went with a little less material around the ankle area. But I must say, as much as I love summer, I might shed a little tear when the cold weather subsides and I have to part ways with my Mukluks for awhile. I'll be keeping an eye out for more footwear from these guys.
