Men's Tailgate Ankle Deck Boot

I've worn them a couple times and so far they're okay. I can already tell they won't last more than a season or two with regular wear and tear. As previous reviewers have stated, the construction on the seams and ankle loops don't seem to be too strong and I can see wear already. Xtratuf quality has gone down in recent years but I wonder if the regular deck boot would be tougher than these fashion ones (I got them because they're orange and easy to spot rather than brown or black). I am a women's 8.5/9 in shoes and I bought the men's 7 and they fit well enough. I would say if you have a tall foot, there isn't a lot of space less so than the regular tufs so it'll be snug there.
