text: The leather is not the same quality as the last pairs I have purchased. It is not soft and supple, it is like very stiff and hard cardboard and cuts into my skin. The length is perfect, the placement of the straps is off. Since I am diabetic I will not be able to risk even attempting to break them in. They don't appear to even be made by the same company! Besides the quality of the leather the bed and souls have different markings than the first pairs that I purchased! I plan to send them back! Amazon service was excellent as usual. One star is for the decline in an excellent product!
