Only worn for a few hours, and with my own custom insoles so the original insoles are like new! The color is just not warm enough for me and looks weird with my daily purse, so I'm letting these go. They were a mottled color out of the box but I applied leather salve and now they are a much nicer and even color. They are brown but look slightly olive in daylight. Gorgeous boots, Australian 4.5 which feels true to size to me at 7.5 women's. Sold from a low-scent, cat-friendly home.
