Made of quality leather, inside is also leather and it does not cause doubt, you can look at the slice in the zipper area or on the tongue. The skin is soft, textured, pleasant to the touch. Nothing does not rub anywhere, it sits on the leg just perfect. The platform is black, thick, corrugated on the sole against sliding. The shoe is conveniently designed. I have a wide leg and it's convenient for me to even dance in them. Everything is done perfectly-no traces of glue, shortcomings on the skin, etc. The shoes themselves smell like natural leather, but the platform has a sharp chemical smell. I kept a couple on the balcony a few days before I walked. I chose the usual model, without insulation. For the size of the foot 36 order 37 size. It came perfectly, you can wear a woolen sock and usual.
