What a shoe!
I admit I am a nerd about leather moccasins. I already have the Lodge Moc and 2 pairs of Quoddy loafers which I love and I thought it would be nice to have a boot as well. These were a bit of a “stretch” for me since they were a 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear, but since they were in the Quoddy Closet and knowing how leather can stretch I went for them. What I didn’t realize is that the whole boot is made of ChromePak leather. OMG this stuff is so sturdy the stretching is arduous. It still is a work in progress, but even now after less than 2 weeks I love these boots. I wear them inside and outside. Quoddy isn’t making this style for women anymore, but the Ring Boot is basically the same so buy your correct size and skip the stretching process I am going through and you will be glad you did.
