Nothing against the good folks over there at El Dorado boots, however, till I made this particular purchase, I had not heard of them. After returning the more expensive Mahogany Caiman boots by Tecovas for lackluster color, I decided to try these out. Not only was the color more vibrant, but the boot was very comfortable as well. I really can't say enough about these boots, for I would much rather wear these than any Tecovas and/or Tony Lama boot and I wish they had more styles to choose from, because they are now to me considered a trusted brand! Great job El Dorado for great looking and comfortable boot!
