User Reviews
Even though this is not what I was looking to buy they ended up being a mistake that worked out. My son loves them and says there are comfortable and great work boots. I would definitely recommend.
This is my second pair. I bought my first pair in November of 2021, (from a brick and mortar store) they fit so good and are comfortable, so when I seen these on Amazon for less money and delivered to my door, I bought them. I still can probably get another year out of my old ones, but I have this pair, when the old ones wear out. Awesome shoes
love how high that are

Great boot, but, I sent them back because they weren’t quite wide enough for my duck feet! Irish Setter boots are the bomb though as I have had several pair. Bummed out because they just weren’t wide enough.
Sent these half leather half plastic bs boot back.

I did not purchase these boots on Amazon but after 15 months of use on these boots from Cabela's I know what size I need so no need to try them on, I will buy it from Amazon. I am an electrician and put close to 20,000 steps on every single day and sometimes the weekend. I have bad feet and plantar fasciitis. Before I bought these boots I could barely walk without limping in pain. I'm mostly on concrete but I did wear them outside alot this winter and kept my feet warm surprisingly in 10 degree weather. Thinking about it my feet are a little sweaty everyday after work. They are not an insulated boot but are warm in the winter. My feet have gotten wet once and that is because I stepped in a sludge pool of water in the winter that went almost to the middle of my calf. Surprisingly my feet were not soaked, just a little moist. Wow what a great pair of boots!! The only reason I am buying a new pair after 15 months is because the the insole has a hole in it (which I could just buy a pair of new ones) from my callast up big toe and the discoloration. Ohhh yeah and getting a little stibky. Still a little tread on them left. I never had a boot last this long. Not the best looking boot around and they get scuffed up very quick but no holes and stitching is still holding up. I will still wear these around the house but buying new for work. I recommend these to every construction worker. Also same shoelaces!!
