Edit: Early March 2025. I am putting the correction first so that it is the first thing anyone searching for the shoe will see. Unfortunately, the big issue is the cheap glue. While at first it did not let water in, now both shoes have come unglued at the same time. I should mention that I did not dip them in water, I walked like I do with all my winter shoes on wet roads, but nothing crazy in terms of use, and I always wiped them. Initially, the glue on the side deteriorated—came apart, resulting in both soles taking in water and eventually being completely destroyed by moisture. While the leather is soft and the outer soles have been durable so far and generally held up, this issue is tragic in just a few months. Let me clarify once again that I did not wear them as if they were completely waterproof. It is tragic that with simple walking in a little rainwater, after a day, the shoe comes apart. And in fact, both at the same time, but one much worse than the other. I am lowering the rating because, over time, the soft leather and beautiful style with comfort last very little since the shoe was destroyed in a short period. Also, on closer inspection, it seems that at the front, for the shape of the toe area, they seem to have used cardboard inside between the lining and the leather.

Initially, let me say that for the price I paid: €70, the impression was excellent. Soft leather, they break in quickly after two or three walks, and they are the expected size. The leather feels a bit oily to the touch, the oils also help with water repellency. In the first light drizzles, they did not do badly, but they are definitely not for much more. Warm, with an internal fabric lining. Glued sole, comfortable walking. After some time, I will return to comment on durability.
