This new line of Ammo boots are a little bit different from the earlier line. The leather is a tiny bit softer so that breaking them in might be quicker. I think I can put foot inserts inside and my heel would not get rubbed raw. I would still recommend buying one size larger. I think the manufacture puts on the liquid shine, which of course needs to be stripped an black dye reapplied. It still a very well made boot, and these new ones will be my walking out pair.
