Quality stiff mo fo boots - Vans Infuse Shoes

I always wear a size 9 shoe and I ordered these in a size 9 and they fit great. The quality seems top notch. I got them at the end of the season so I only got four days on them so I do not know about long term durability yet. I tried them first without the plastic stiffeners and they were a tad too flexible for my poor ankle but with the stiffeners in these boots are some stiff doggers! They are fantastic and I am happy with the whole package. They are comfortable right out of the box and I did not have to do the heat insole forming task to find them fantastic. Good work Vans! And by the way they look good too! Stoked on my purchase.
