I absolutely love these boots! At first I was hesitant to purchace them because I thought that the vegan leather wouldn't hold up as well as real leather. I am glad that I took the chance on them because I was definitely wrong! I have had these boots for almost 2 years now and they are still in excellent shape. I wear them all the time and they have been through everything, from every day wear and tear to dozens of heavy metal shows. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a fashionable, durable and crulety free boot.
