User Reviews
These fit great and are very comfortable! One negative was these where purchased for on duty with my department and the very first day got a brush fire and put a significant rip in the toe leather, didn't effect anything other than appearance. The rip was just on the surface of the leather from clambering around on rocks during the call. Overall I would absolutely buy again for duty wear as I can quickly get these off when needing to put on bunker pants.
Four stars for now. I've only worn them for two weeks but so far they are my favorite. Far better than Rocky's.
Fits true to size. Best part is how lightweight this boot is. I ordered the regular boot with no steel toe. Sole has a good grip and all the materials feel good but it’s still very light. I normally use insole inserts on all my shoes so not sure how to rate the arch support.
Fit good still going strong
Great work boots. Best I've had.
Seam ripped after three times of wearing them
