FEL YNI brand boots

[msm007]

Hi! Anyone familiar with FEL-YNI brand boots (made in Mexico)? I was wondering how well made they are, etc. Any information is helpful.
Thanks

I bought a pair of their western boots (do they make any other?) in Mexico City many moons ago. Quality was somewhere between Justin and Lucchese , closer to the latter, but for dirt cheap.

Hi, thanks for the info. Do you still have the boots? How was the wearing in period?

I gave them to my nephew a few years ago as I've moved on to rounder toes and lower heels in boots. I don't recall there being a particularly problematic break in but then I've always had good luck with shoe/boot fit.

Is that brand of boot pretty common where you live?
