Have to agree these boots are worth the price, they are one of the oldest pairs of shoes, in my closet - the oldest is my Doc Martens 3 holes Which I have resoled once in the 20 + years I have owned them. I can not part with either. I love them for comfort and style. And Also the durability. I do not own another pair of shows that have been through the abuse that these shoes have been through and lasted the way they have. They look the same as whem I had bought them, I keep the polished and for the 14 holed I keep them speeded-laced it makes it easier to get them on and off.

I would not trade these...
