UPDATE: tape didnt work. Added a picture as well. Updated yet again. I switch out to my old steel toe boots half way through the day and am now concerned that I will never wear these again unless I can figure out a way to soften the back of these chukka boots up so they dont run as bad. They are cute and reminded me of Kate Spade heels, but for a lot less money. The only negative is that it?s thick. My husband LOVED it! These were perfect and they are wide also so very comfy. And the headset is expensive . Seems to be ok.
