The boots are from last year dillard sale in corpus christi Texas i wore them maybe 3 times took them out for the 1st time this year and they were all crumbling apart at the bottom where the ankle goes...they said they were leather but I don't think they are. I have another pair.of born that have lasted 12 years and still look brand new...I know items don't last forever but just a few wears and they look like they came from a thrift store. The company should take some pride in their product for the price they charge
