These are Kenneth Cole "n-different" boots. My brother wanted me to wear "dressier" boots if I couldn't wear shoes (which I just can't) so I got these as his gift. Read about the gift process here.I have tried to wear them several times. Unfortunately, the boots are very uncomfortable. Every time I have worn them, I have developed blisters on my heels.
I have tried a number of things to fix the problem, such as installing gel insoles, wearing moleskin on my heels, and thick socks. Nothing worked. After trying to wear them once more and getting blisters again, I finally admitted that these boots are crap and have to go.
My brother convinced me to donate them to charity. So they're gone! Good riddance. High-end style name-brand does not guarantee quality or comfort.
Life is short: wear real boots!

J, sorry to hear that your attempt to get BHD to dress to the nines did not go as well.
However, I must admit that BHD is right on all counts. I've paid for, and trashed, about 3 to 4 pairs of "dress" boots.
While they were definitely a pain to my wallet, the pain they cause my feet is immeasurable. I should have learnt my lesson after a pair but no, I'd try the brands and then end up wearing them out. In less than an hour, my legs will be literally cut open and I'll be in pain and regretting my purchase for days! The blisters take a long time to heal too.
I now stick to the "real" stuff. Of course, I still admire those who can suit up with dress boots. Admirable! But not for me.
