SUSTAINABILITY: The vegan leather is derived from grape waste, which contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional leather. The waterproof membrane is built from castor bean oil, a renewable resource that cuts down on fossil fuel dependence. Production takes place in our own factories in Vietnam, which uphold ethical and environmental standards under BSCI certification. The shoe also carries several sustainability certifications, including the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), and OEKO-TEX 100.

Very uncomfortable. I didn't like it
I wear between 8 and 8.5 in any shoe or boot ive owned. Went with 8.5 and it is too big. I can cinch the lases right and make it work but its not an 8.5 in any other brand ive owned. The boots are quality and comfy beyond that important part. Would buy again just sizing seems to run big on this style or maybe its the brand itself being my first try.
Nice-looking, sturdy, and the best-fitting shoes I've bought from SAOLA. (My 9th pair). It's also refreshing to have a shoe with a pull-on loop that is actually large enough to accommodate my finger.
Unfortunately these are beautiful but require half size higher than other saolas. So I will be exchanging them.
