The leather is thin but they look great and HD list them around $128.00 and I got these for $49.00 off ebay. I wore them today and they are not that comfortable walking in.
What are the most poplar boots you guys use that are real comfortable ?

Unfortunately...those boots probably aren't counterfeit. Harley has a LOT of paraphanilia (including boots) made in china. The mine I work at has 2 boot trucks that come around selling work boots. One of them has Harley boots, and they are made in china. To be honest it's hard (but not impossible) to find an American made boot. Most brands are made overseas (including Caterpillar), and some brand (like Georgia boot company) sell some boots made in USA...& some made over seas. In my opinion the best boots your money can buy are Red Wings (USA made), and Thorogood. The links to these are below. Happy hunting & congratulations for thinking about supporting American workers!
