Comfort: This boot shines in the comfort department. With dynamic cushioning and a removable cushioned footbed, you will feel like you're wearing sneakers instead of traditional work boots. The midsole effectively resists compression, making it ideal for those extended shifts.

Style: Unlike many work boots that prioritize function over form, the Wolverine Shiftplus doesn’t compromise on style. Its sleek design allows you to transition seamlessly from job site to casual outings.
Fit: The fit can be slightly snug, especially for those with wider feet. It’s advisable to try the boots on or consult sizing guides before purchasing to avoid any discomfort.

Good comfortable boot have a good price
It takes about 40 hrs ware to break in. But very comfortable.
thick sneaker sole is clean and comfortable, just too narrow for me, very very nice boots though on first impression
I've owned 3 pairs of Wolverine boots for work over the last 5 years and have always been very happy. These boots required a break-in of about 2 weeks, during that time my feet were hurting. But thats actually a good thing. Everyone who has owned really high quality boots, like Red Wings, knows they are going to hurt for at least the first few weeks, if not months. But after that they are spectacular and can last years. I work as a boiler technician and have been wearing these boots for almost 9 months now. There is no sign of damage or even serious wear. They even still look good. I'm very happy with these, they were worth the money.
They are really comfortable to wear at work, not so much for rough construction but finish work or interior surfaces.I did find they ran a bit big , almost like they stretch from wear during the day. I wish the laces were shorter , maybe a zipper rather than laces .Over all, if you do a lot of walking on a project then these will be great for you.
I ordered these after doing a good amount of research of comfortable, light weight but yet durable and waterproof boots and decided on these "high end name brand" boots payed top dollar for them as well. I own a body shop and we use water alot and my feet stay soaking wet. They are absolutely not water proof not even water resistant. I just use a water hose it's not like I'm walking around in ankle high water all day, they simply get water splashed onto them. I would expect this from a $50 pair of boots but I payed $130+ for these and they didn't last the first day!
Love the look so far like everything about them but need to know how long they last thank you well he has had a bit now already look bad the white on bottom hasn’t been white since day one should have known the leather pard looks worn out to me I don’t think I will order again ! Even when I clean them up not a good look !
I like the look of the boot and weight! Ordered extra wide and they definitely are not extra wide and I do not like the fact the tongue is attached making it more difficult to get your foot in there! Too bad if those two issues would’ve been addressed, I would’ve kept the boots, but I returned them! Why is it so difficult to find an extra wide shoe? I’m sure there’s many people out there that have a wider than average foot third attempt at a wide boot.!
