text: I was so excited to get these: they're cute and surprisingly comfortable. I got them in November, didn't wear them too much over the winter (California drought), but in early spring I took them to London and in the very first rain, my heels felt wet. I thought I was crazy--surely my feet would be dry because these boots were new and hadn't been through anything tough. I finally looked at the bottoms, and they were worn down to the fibers of the footbed, as you can see in the picture. Really disappointing. Hopefully the replacements last longer, but it's very frustrating!
