To make a long story short - the shoes are sturdy, comfortable and serve their purpose. But what really annoys me and I yet with any other shoe had is that the eyes begin to rust and therefore the shoe straps are inked slowly russet. In addition, the tightening of the belt often very difficult through the rusty and thus rough eyelets.
Especially with such a winter boots, the nature at a wet and snow, it is completely incomprehensible to me why no rustproof eyelets are used here. This cents you save in the production definitely an on the wrong end. Or should about do not keep as long as the shoes?
