Durability of the sole support in the shoe (genuine sheepskin boots always barefoot wearing!), Here is the unusual color ("raisin") and the Wahnsinnspreis - just perfect !!! To glue smell I can not say much, yes ... it smelled a little glue, but that's gone really fast.
I also impregnate the boots with a special spray (there are of EMU a Care Kit, which the "Stain and water repellent" includes) with GoreTex NEVER spray impregnation! Then no longer works the natural "air conditioning" and you get barefoot Schweissfuesse ...
