Gorgeous pair! i have proof of purchase so thats always good.. had them for years and their still going strrong ! took them to timpsons last year for the backbone of the heel as it was peeling off. they had amended it as seen in the pics (slightly messing job, but no one gets to see the inside of them anyway). leather is in perfect condition as seen! its been in all seasons which shows how excellent the quality of these boots are. however, as I am moving, id like to declutter what i own.
