Processing: the flower front is only glued on. This was done not very accurately the first pair, safely dissolves the time. But that was not really disturbing. On top of the stem is indeed the range control and fold for greater distance. That was the first pair bonded in a boot and did not let dissolve. The second pair is read to solve, but it was by a few ugly mistakes in rubber.
Conclusion: if you do not need the stem extension, because you have not soo strong calves, the boots for the price are great. Stylish and comfortable. But the shaft extension is only an ornament and not to be used in practice.
