Ordered these boots for a ten day plains game hunting safari in Namibia. Just got back. Wore the boots from the time I got up to in the morning until I took them off to sleep. My feet loved them. When I first received them I thought there must have been a mistake. They seemed so tight. I almost sent them back, I started wearing them and I realized they fit well except at the first joint of each big toe. Mine are thick. Stretched that part of the leather with rubbing alcohol and problem solved. I am so glad I did not send them back. These are light weight boots. Walked many kilometers in them stalking game. No blisters or hot spots. Soles very quiet. Particulars: 7 inch. Canvas inserts. Turtle skin and Poron inserts. 1/4 inch heel lift. Sized for a very thin wool sock.

I have two pairs of these boots that I rotate through as my daily work boots. I work in high tech but own a farm and just got back from a 14 day mule deer hung in Sonora, Mexico where I wore these all day, every day on VERY long tracking journeys. LOVE them. I have the short thula thula in all leather. Best shoe I have ever owned.
