Lori, I asked this question last year and had a lot of helpful replies.
I looked at boots and prices all over the world and in the end bought
these (Uluru model) in Australia. I have since worn them and can
recommend them for comfort, strength and the service from Bunyip Boots
is great. I did it all via e-mail and their site. Diane was the person
who advised me.
