Hi i got these the New TK Boots for TKboots.com yesterday they have been improved quite a bit , from the old ones , still not the origanal boots , still looking for those , but these new tk boots have higher ankle section plus they are more rounded at the front and the soles are slightly thicker , so iam preety pleased they are looking a bit more like the origanl boots and these babys are wicked for trooping , just need to weather them up some , below are some comparison pics againt last years TK Boots . both pairs are size 8's .
