These boots still have good life in them, I never wore them for too long when I did wear them. Just because they’ve just always been a little too small for me to wear for more than an hour or so and I finally just got new ones in a size 8. So If you are a 7.5 I suggest going up to a 8 in xtratufs not down to a size 7. Learn from my mistake. Lol They have a design on the inside lining so they are set up with a logo to show when you fold down just a little on the top. They can be worn like normal, or with the slight fold. Here in Alaska a lot of people do the double fold all the way down like I show in the first pictures. And that’s how I kept these most of the time. So when they are unfolded they show a little wear at the spots the folds were. But nothing too bad, I tried to take as many pictures as I could to show what they look like.
