Purchased with drachmas in 1999. They still hold up. The seams have not suffered at all. The laces are in the same condition. Only the soles have been a bit worn. After so many years. Worn in very tough conditions and work! Incredible

It is a timeless shoe. My husband has been buying them for years! Just know that they have a very comfortable fit. We buy one size smaller than what we wear!

Sturdy and expectedly thick-boot, inspires confidence on the motorcycle. It does not slip and does not show significant wear after 2 years or more.

Negatives:
It is too big, fortunately the store informed us to buy a smaller size than usual.
It has the most idiotic lacing system I have encountered, after 2 rows of hooks the lacing ends up in a hole again. When you untie the laces, they obviously come out of the hooks and to tie them properly, they have to come out of the last (top) hole and start again from the beginning. I tightened the hooks a bit with my hand, the problem improved (if someone uses pliers, be very careful not to break them). Cat boots are described as safety boots for the city, but for this to be true, they need to be tied properly.

Overall, very satisfied, but one star minus for the lacing.

Beautiful but not durable boots.
As a construction, they are very sturdy on their own.
But.
The black collar that hugs the foot is not leather but some kind of paint applied on fabric.
After about a year, the paint started to chip off and the fabric underneath became visible.
The suede wore off very quickly on top of the shoe, now it's just suede-like material...
Wherever it hits, it creates superficial tears.
The interior also wore off quickly.
They are not particularly comfortable and do not provide arch support.

Nevertheless, they are very beautiful boots, I have had them for 5 years and have enjoyed them a lot.
For my next purchase, I will look for a boot with a more comfortable sole, arch support, and durability.

It is a good boot. Compared to the money you pay for other boots, it's okay. It is a very heavy shoe and not suitable for walking in the city for many hours. However, it is very stylish and can be worn for a more formal outfit. It can also be worn on rainy and snowy days as it is very difficult for water to get inside. Finally, the sizes are larger than usual, so consult the CAT size guide.
