Made in Portugal these boots are like butter, the leather is grade A and I've tried to keep them nice. Super snug like a moccasin with a rubber sole. Had them for three years now. The only issue would be there is actually beach tar from my feet inside on the insole....the tar is long gone but there is a stain on both insoles (see pic) Adds to the character of the boots in my salty opinion. these things are dope
