Bearpaw is an excellent, very high quality brand suede winter boot. My last pair held up for 2 winters but the shaft is crumpled and is rubbing against my shins, so I bought this pair of shorter ones this year. The lining is thick, the soles are non slip. It's difficult to imagine buying a different brand after having had, now 3 pairs if I count the 2 I wore out, in this wonderful brand. Be SURE to spray waterproofing on them. If you wear out a certain part of the bottom of your shoes, or more than one spot, like the left side of the heal on one...get a shoe repair guy to put reinforcement pieces on those spots, it's cheap to do and worth it, I needed 2 on each boot, I think the whole deal was $7 2 years ago.

My daughter loves the bearpaw product...whether it's cold or hot she lives in these boots...I love the price too..cheaper than any other place
