Seller feedback (3,284)
- a***a (357)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseMostly as described. The item details said the material was leather, though I suspected otherwise, and the print inside the boots does indeed say man-made. I did anticipate that, though the price with shipping was a little high for man-made materials with this much wear. Either way the shipping was prompt and the boots are as pictured, and were carefully packaged.
