I agree with Jim Civielloon's comments about the rear lining in his June 6, 2015 review.  I managed to work around it. My right foot fit fine, my left got hung up with the loose lining.  I managed to work my heel past the lining bunched at the bottom rear and then with much pulling on the back of the boot and much toe wiggling the boot is on for the day. I was willing to live with this issue.<br />My current problem is gaping holes in the tread under the balls of my feet.  I can handle wear and tear and I didn't expect the soles to last forever. I am usually on grass or dirt, not much time on concrete and the tread is still good except for the holes under the balls of my feet.  Am I expecting to much?  These boots are about 10 months old and I was planning on at least a year of use. As I said I still have decent tread expect for the holes in the sole at the ball of the foot.
