Adept kickers, some have a very soft leather and other harder. The Banjo tend to fall into this latter category. Leather is particularly steep at the kick (above the shoe). The width is sufficient but I have known larger kickers who donned as slippers and are forgotten from the first meters. In length no problem (rather long way) If you buy these ankle boots for the winter season, know that a warmer there (no padding / insulator inside). Update: I just noticed tonight that zips seams were being let go !!! gosh, this is yet kickers 135! (Fortunately they had resulted in 60%) I said that have brought them only four days to break everything ... I will plan a visit to the shoemaker. I hope the rest will hold good I have other models of hyper beefy brand with more than 2 years and have not moved.
