I needed no time to break into the shoes at all. They're very comfortable and the color is beautiful (I ordered brown). I highly recommend them.
I bought these as an alternative to the "other" brand. I find them quite comfortable now that they are broken in, which took several wears. My only complaint is that with only a loop at the back of the boot, these are very difficult to put on. Otherwise, great looking boot – I hope they last me a few years!
