These are the best boots I have ever owned! So comfortable and completely waterproof. They’ve been worn a lot, but have held up so well. They could stand to be cleaned on the outside, but they’re in amazing condition! The leather isn’t scuffed or scratched and there are no rips or tears in the fabric. Premium waterproof leather, rugged craftsmanship, a compression EVA midsole, and Peak-to-Pavement® traction elevate the Patch Mid from classic Tyrolean lace up to durable all-terrain adventurer. Leather sourced from a tannery with a Gold rating for environmental responsibility by the independent auditing group, the Leather Working Group. Waterproof and breathable membrane Full grain leather, suede, and heathered textile Gusseted tongue Taped seams to prevent moisture leaks Wicking mesh linings with anti-odor treatment Dual-density TPE footbed for support and cushioning Compression EVA midsole optimized for shock absorption Composite shank supplies torsional rigidity Peak-to-Pavement® rubber outsole designed to maximize traction and support
