User Reviews
I just got the. And did a quick try on and walk around and first thing I noticed was that they are very comfortable without even breaking them in. I stood on the carbon toe and it feels very strong and the boots overall feel durable. Have not tested how well they are waterproof but if they stay comfortable and hold up well I will buy them again when the time comes.
I use this mostly on concrete surface, barely wore this it for 2 months before it lost all shock absorption. I would say it's comparable to a safety boot in the 50-70 dollar range.
Can't go wrong with these.
