The boots that I received were great a first, but have started to fall apart rather quickly. I've only had them 5 months and stiches are coming loose, the outer part of the left toe has come apart from the sole of the shoe. Not sure what the deal is, most reviewers have their shoes for YEARS before they show ware and tear like these ones have. Not super impressed... You'd think for the price paid they would at least hold up a year.
