I have had this boot for just over a month now and I wear it daily. It is very comfortable and easy to break in. I need a wide toe block but have narrow heels so the laces keep the boot nice and snug on my feet. They are waterproof enough for hosing horses and walking in wet grass, but water will come in through the tongue area if submerged. They have plenty of flexibility to accommodate heavy winter socks. I haven't had them long enough to know how well they will wear, but my other Kerrit's boots have worn well so I expect these will too. I like them so much I am planning to purchase a second pair to wear "outside of the barn".
