Dave,
The uppers are actually a bit stiffer with the unfinished leather. I have a pair of the 10″ and a pair of the anniversary boots and after waterproofing 3 times the uppers soften up very well especially in the high movement areas, but, they don’t seem so sag at all. Once the uppers were broken in I have noticed I actually prefer to wear these over the 10″ for a long day of pheasants or deer hunting, I can’t seem to figure out why that is. Maybe it’s just that I used them on my back country elk hunt and just like to wear the gear I used for that hunt.
Luck
