Beautiful boot.  Well made, thick, sturdy, yet supple leather and strong design details.  Heel fits perfectly on the pegs of a bike.  My only complaint is that the leather is so thick that it's difficult to stretch.  I have a very high arch and small foot.  I've taken these 2 times to the shoe store to be stretched and they seem to shrink right back after a few months.  I've had them a few years and I expected them to feel broken in by now, but every time I wear them, it's like they're brand new.  If these boots don't feel right when you first get them, don't expect them to change over time.
