When it comes to long-lasting work boots, the Justin 11" Tasha Waterproof Round Toe stands out in several key areas. The waterproof capabilities are a game changer, especially for those who work in wet conditions or outdoor setups. The heavy-duty leather not only adds to its durability but also provides a stylish edge, allowing them to transition well into casual settings.
The steel toe feature ensures compliance with safety regulations, making them an excellent choice for professions requiring protective footwear. The oil and slip-resistant outsole gives you the confidence to tackle any surface without worrying about slips or falls.
Despite their many advantages, it's important to note that these boots are heavier compared to other models on the market. This can lead to fatigue if worn for extended periods without breaks. Moreover, some users have reported needing a break-in period before achieving optimal comfort, which is common in sturdy leather footwear.

I bought these boots to replace a pair of soft toe Justin Gypsy boots that I have owned for the past four years. The decision to switch to steel toe did not derive from my work environment. I use my Justin boots as "everyday boots". I have other pretty and fancy boots that I wear when I dress up. I chose to go with steel toe for the toe protection. I wear my boots everywhere. I wear them hunting, hiking, fishing, and horseback riding. I ordered the same size steel toe boots as I wore in the soft toe and they fit perfect. I like the 11" gypsy boots because I find that it helps with the heat. I live in Texas and it is hot and humid and when you sweat all day the longer boots are less comfortable. People have mentioned that the steel toe boots are more hot in the summer and cold in the winter. To be honest it has been in the 90s this week and they feel no different from my soft toe boots. Boots are hot, end of story. I wear my boots with thin ankle socks. I shave my legs so I do not have to deal with men's issues with their leg hair being pulled or rubbed off. The shaft of the boot (part that goes up your leg) is pretty loose on these boots and the interior of the shaft is a padded high weave nylon cloth. This makes the boot more comfortable for wear because you do not have the backside of leather rubbing against your legs. When I first took them out of the box I noticed the leather looked a little dry so I rubbed the entire leather exterior of the boot with mink oil. This helped to soften up the boot and make it easier to wear in. This is also the reason why my pictures of the boots look a bit darker than the advertisement pictures. I also burned all of the loose strings hanging from the boots. The boots were a tight fit at first but loosened up within an hour of wearing them. The heel is a little bit roomy compared to my soft toe boots but so far it has not been a bother. Overall I am happy with my experience with the boots. If you have any questions feel free to ask and I will answer as quickly as I can get to my phone.
My granddaughter loved them and they looked great on her.
Exactly what I needed for work! Very happy with the arch support
Boots are comfortable and look good, but one had some mud on the bottom and a scuff on the toe. It is clear this boit has been worn some. Also the tags were taken off which is fine, just would like to have known and maybe paid a little less.
Only pair of boots I can find with steel toe and rounded for a woman. I love these boots and this is my second pair. The first pair lasted me just over 2 years.
Great but as with all boots need to be worn in a year and will be my new best friend.
Fit perfectly! On10 hrs/day won't hurt your fit! Just got another one b4 it's sold out!
I have worn this style (non steel toe) for over 4 years year round. They are all I wear. Warm in winter and cool in summer. Great traction in mud, snow, ice. I renew water proofing with mink oil or Huberds water as necessary.
