The combat boots for the gray walk to the bus stop

These are combat ankle boots with a lug sole, laces and a zipper for getting them on. The upper is faux buffalo grain leather with a faux leather lining, and the heel is 1.25 inches. Below is what the listing states about these boots, and what it leaves out.

The upper is faux buffalo grain leather and the lining is faux leather too, so the listing describes no real leather. It calls the materials high quality alternative leather, which is the brand’s own wording. The boots close with laces and metal eyelets, with a zipper on the inside for easy entry and a pull tab at the back. Heavy weight stitching runs throughout, and the listing counts all of this as part of the style.

The heel is 1.25 inches, a low lift rather than a tall one. The sole is a lug sole that the listing calls flexible and non slip. The shaft measures 6 inches from where your heel sits to the top of the shaft. Inside, the insole is padded with memory foam, which the listing names as the comfort feature.

The listing does not say whether the boots are waterproof, how they run in size, how wide the fit is, or what they weigh, so those are worth checking before you order. Whether a lug sole suits your wardrobe is a matter of taste, not something a measurement can settle. The boots are imported, and the listing gives no country of origin. The listing also gives no care instructions for the faux leather.
