Men's Leather 6 in Ankle Deck Boot Size 10.5(M)

I bought these boots a couple of weeks ago and have been wearing them occasionally in pretty normal Alaskan fall conditions (walking in the woods, on muddy gravel roads, in rain, in snow, etc). I have noticed some cosmetic wear/distressing, especially around the toe, but the upper appears to be holding strong. The seal between the sole and the upper might be peeling up a little bit, but it's too early to tell if that's just normal breaking in or if it's a product failure. These boots are surprisingly grippy on ice. Comfortable, waterproof, easy to put on & take off, look good. Still happy with my purchase - will write an updated review in a few months if necessary.
