I'm giving these boots 3 starts because they look attractive! They really do look better in person than online. On the other hand the comfort is not that great. After an 8 hour shift, I couldn't wait to take these off my feet. Maybe they need more time to get broken in? I don't know, but I really don't want to risk spending money on a shoe that hurts my feet. Also the side zipper is useless, You have to unzip it to actually comfortably put the boot on and off. They still look good though
