yes ankle and shin protection are not as strong but nothing beats leather for longevityTrue I've never even laid eyes on a pair. Wasn't saying they weren't any good .. I was referring to the dual-sport looking white boots.
I have a pair of Ian Harold boots that look similar to yours , were made in Melbourne until a couple of years ago (Malaysia nowadays ) they are really comfortable walking/work boots but don't have the built-in ankle and shin protection.
