Iman Water Repellent Boot (Women)

I was on a hunt for water resistant shoes that look like regular boots rather than typical “rain boots.” These were the winner due to being light weight for packing, soft enough that I suspected it would be quick to break them in, and general appearance. My usual size fit as expected in length and width. I like that they have a zip plus laces for easy on/off and fit adjustments. The laces are no good though. I pull as tight as possible and they come untied every time I wear them. For the price of these shoes I don’t want to have to buy new laces but I am because I like them otherwise. No break in period - I wore them to walk a mile to and from work and they fit great. Also wore in heavy rain and my socks stayed dry.
