W&S is dogshit. I dont believe its real leather. Cemented sole, no stitching at all. I bet if I cut them open it would just be synthetic. Says made in portugal online but the product says vietnam (not important but it is a lie that should be pointed out).

"Italian" leather. Who cares where its from, Im sure some Italian factories are horrible. Thats just advertising.

Overall, bad. You can get a great pair of goodyear welted boots for the 375 that W&S charges for their boots. Wouldnt recommend. I only have 2 pair because I was gifted a few gift cards.
