I have purchased these boots twice. I am overall satisfied with the comfort, weight, and features provided by these boots. The only thing that I feel could be improved upon is the quality. This is not to say that they are of poor quality, because like I said, I've purchased them twice.
I work twelve our days in an industrial environment and these boots definitely allowed my feet to be not just protected, but remain comfortable throughout the day. I was surprised to find that they had many of the features that are usually only received in boots that are much higher in price.
The reason I stated that the quality could be improved upon is simply for the fact that I have had this last pair for almost a year, to the day, and the waterproof feature, that I thought was their best attribute, has run its course. The part of the boot where the sole meets the side of the boot, right where the ball of my foot is, has failed and is allowing water to get in. Since it is deep in the boot it also prevents it from drying quickly.
Now, I understand that this is something that can be attributed to normal wear and tear, which is why I have said that the boot is overall the best bang for your buck. If you're looking for a good boot that you won't have to worry about breaking in for an extended amount of time, or a boot that is on the less expensive side while still providing the characteristics of a higher end boot, then this is a great boot to pull the trigger on.
