No nonsense product. It dwells with your feet really well and rest is just up to your game. Dont worry about the white color, it wont stay white for long :) Easy to clean though. The tongue of this boot serves the purpose, kind if wraps your feet perfectly. On casual shoes my size is 9 and this boot also i ordered 9 due to lack of 8.5. So now i wear the crepe bandage and then the boot so thats its not loose. 8 size was just too tight for my legs.
