I still have not received the boots, so I'm not sure why I am asked to give a review yet. Perhaps according to the seller's tracking info the parcel has reached me? It has not! I'm still waiting. As soon as I have it, I will give you a more adequate review. Apart from that, the process of buying from the store is good. Maybe it would be a good idea to clarify what this 290 is... I hope it's millimetres (for the length of the foot). It would be useful to have a table with the sizes showing which size corresponds to which standard.

Hi Stanslav Sometimes the delivery to European destinations does take longer than the week it takes for the Feedback request to be issued. Sorry about that, but please do let us know when you receive them. The website does have additional information about shoe sizing, and this appears next to the price on each product.

Promptly dispatched. I received my order two days after placing it online. Great boots. I first wore them on a familiar walk on the downs which has a couple of very steep hills. All good. I do wear thick socks but the boots were very comfortable. I'm really pleased. The condition of these boots was excellent, better than I expected and I'm sure would have cost three times the price had I got them from an "outdoor" shop.

This is the second pair of these that I have bought for my son. They had very little sign of wear - almost new looking. My son says that they are very comfortable. Delivery was very swift. Highly recommended!
