User Reviews
If you are on your feet all day you'll like this boot. The composite toe keeps the weight down and the light weight and comfortable foot bed makes it feel like a pair of sneakers. The best part is how durable and affordable these boots are, I bought a pair in July 2014 and just bought a new pair to replace them today January 2017, I wore the tread off my first pair over the 2.5 years I had them.... I wear them 8 to 16 hours a day 6 days a week and do not have aching feet at the end of the day.They were a bit tight when I first put them on but after a week or so they loosened up and formed around my foot.
I got an 8.5 and it fits as a 8.5 should. Nice and soft, easy break in. Very comfortable sole. Was 185.00 plus tax at boot barn, got them here for 140.00 plus tax. So far I am vary happy with the boots at the price.
Maybe I'm spoiled with my Timberland's, but these boots are extremely uncomfortable. Hopefully they break in because they are tearing my feet up after one day. I guess you get what you pay for.
As with most boots I get one size less and it fit perfectly. My only complaint I have for whatever reason ever pair of Wolverines that I have owned the inner padding starts to come off after a few times of wearing requiring you to but one that goes inside the boot. Besides that you will never own a pair of boots that last as long as the Wolverines last pair I have had for 7 years and still use them for working outside.
They were comfortable but will not buy a boot that only lasts 4 months.
Great boots.
I’ve had 6 pairs of them I get about 14 months out of them just love them
“Loved” these boots. After a short break in they’re very comfortable. My only complaint is after just a short two months of owning them I’ve noticed the rubber on the heel in beginning to peel off on the inner part of boot. Started out as a little spot and has grown to be 2” of the heel are peeling.Update. Bottom rubber on the boot almost completely ripped off. Why didn’t rip off wore through and the boot was useless. Wouldn’t buy them again
