OK...latest and greatest update on the CABoots....they looked at the reference photos when I sent them the link to the gallery here. They still maintain that they are faux suede, and that they were getting complaints about how much weathering had to be done, and the inaccuracy of the product. I maintain that if they advertised it as canvas, and they didn't notify me of a change in material prior to sending my order, then I should get a refund or a new pair made at no charge to me. I still haven't heard from this mysterious and elusive "other owner" but Priscilla insists that she will either get a new pair made of canvas or a refund.
