The leather is a thicker cut that some other brands of Chelsea boots that I have worn which makes me feel like these will go the distance. Good quality option if youre not into spending $80-$150 on bone conducting headphones when youve never used them before. Solid build quality overall for the price. They were a little big, especially after your foot slides down the shoe. Cover is durable enough for outdoor use. A terrible and traumatic thing happened to me on Friday. My 6 year old daughter is totally in love with them and can?t wait to wear them to the Daddy Daughter dance this Friday. I purchased these and starting to wear them and the toebox ripped after 3 to 4 wears. The bass is not intense like it is with turtle beaches or Sony headsets, but it is clear. I need proper support indoors for my heel pain as it can be quite unbearable at times if you have to be on your feet for long.
