Other reviewer's don't lie, the opening is so tight it takes some force to fit your foot in.  On the flip side, they don't have that floppy feeling that other laceless boots or shoes have.  Getting them off isn't as bad as I expected although there is no heal to lever against so I'm sure that the sole will begin peeling loose in short order, especially since it is glued on and not sewn.<br /><br />Two big gripes with this boot:  Unless you are Captain Hook, good luck getting a digit in the pull strap.  I mean really, who checks this stuff at the factory?  It's all I can do to get the tip of my finger in, I'm going to have to fab up a metal hook to aid in putting these on.  The absence of a front strap is a major oversight.<br /><br />Gripe number two is there is zero arch support in this shoe.  Did they use retired NYPD flat foots to design this thing?  They are decent to wear for a couple hours and there is so little room inside I don't think you could get away with adding an insert or arch support.<br /><br />So to sum it up, for $50 it's a pretty decent boot that would work well for short stints of light wear.  You will probably spend more time writhing on the floor trying to don and doff them than you will actually wearing the darn things.  FYI I'm from the city of Eugene of which the boot is named so I am eminently qualified to review it I think!
