Very comfortable and light. Much more comfortable and much less goofy looking than the 6” ones.

Great for Daily Use!
Please Note: I am not a member of any armed forces, but I have been wearing these boots virtually daily for 10 months.I bought these to replace the Belleville brand boots I took from my dad (the Bellevile boots are very old and don't fit right). I very much like military style boots, and I wanted to find a pair to use daily. Reebok appealed to me because of their amazon prime status, price, and most importantly color/size/insulation/safety-toe options. I wanted a pair I could use year 'round so I opted for the non-insulated pair. At the time, I spent several days of the week in a machine shop, so I selected the safety toe option. If available, I would have opted for a waterproof and safety toe version.These are my observations:-The boots took one day of standing/ walking for 8 hours to break in. My feet were sore, but after that I had no problems. They are very comfortable and the athletic insert provides good cushioning for standing/ walking/ trail hiking. I have not done any regular running in these boots, so I cannot comment on that subject. Combined with wool socks, they have kept my feet warm for short excursions into Missouri winter weather. These are not insulated, so extended stays in the cold may become uncomfortable. In the summer, they are breathable enough to be comfortable but are obviously warmer than sneakers.-The tread is very deep on these, deeper than any other shoe I've seen. I am sure it helps with traction on loose dirt or snow.-I very much enjoy the black smooth leather. Most boots now days seem to be moving toward the suede desert or olive. This is a personal preference, but I am glad that Reebok still offers smooth black.-These boots are not supposed to be waterproof, and they are not. They have protected my feet from heavy rain, but if you step in deep water that reaches the boot's tongue, your feet will soak.-At first I was reluctant to get boots with a side zipper (another feature apparently becoming standard), but they ended up being very convenient. These boots will not come off unless they are untied or unzipped, and the zipper is a way quicker option. There is a small velcro flap to restrict the zipper from becoming accidentally moved during use. In addition, the zipper seems to be of great quality and has not faulted once.-The composite safety toe seems to work well. Thankfully, nothing serious has tested their quality, but no flexing or cracking has resulted from my friends jumping/ stomping on them to see if they work (not very scientific- I know).-The boots are 100% metal free, which will be a plus if I have to go through a metal detector often. However, I have still had to take them off for airport security.-The leather is at least good quality, but the color has been scuffed on lumber and other hard things I bump my feet into. Black leather polish covers the scuffs nicely though.-Overall, the boots seem to be of good quality, but some of the stitching has frayed and had to be cut off. This doesn't affect performance and hasn't become a problem, but it worries me that these boots may not last as many years as the Belleville boots have.Final thoughts: These boots have performed slightly better than expected for the cost. I would recommend these for someone looking for a military style, safety toe boot. My only regret for this review is that I did not have a pair of new "Made in the USA" boots to compare with. Again, I am not part of the US military so I can't comment on adherence to regulations or performance while on duty and whatnot.

Good boot, Terrible customer service.
These are decent boots they get the job done and aren't crazy expensive. my only issue is the tread wears out faster than I would expect. I'm not in a job that would be hard on a boot I mostly walk on concrete and gravel.If you have an issue with them don't expect customer service to care. My latest pair came with a defective boot lace and after emailing them I haven't heard anything.

First pair! Feels good out of the box but it's going to take a month or two to really decide
The media could not be loaded. So far I like the boot has a really grippy Soul on the bottom which is kind of aggravating for a lot of boots but it feels like it would grip most surfaces well it's the first composite boot that I bought so it's a little wide in the toe but nothing a thicker pair of socks can't fix.The dog likes them that's always good because the dog has good senses about things.Like all boots I usually put a better insole in them a thicker gel type and I think these could probably benefit from the same.It's hard to beat that old pair of Timberlands for Comfort all day so have a lot of Faith In Those Old boots but we'll see if these Reeboks can live up to the same standard.

Horrible boot
Reebok missed the mark on comfort here these are the worst choice of boots I’ve made. I thought after breaking them in they would be alright but even after almost three weeks they kill my feet even after changing the insoles.They are water resistant but the fit is horrible if you like blisters on your ankles then this is the boot for you the good thing is they are composite toe and lighter than steel toes also the side zip is great I give it a 3 out of 10Now it’s time to go back to my previous boot as these will just sit in the closet because they aren’t even worth a garage sale in good conscience

Best boots ever
I've been wearing these boots since converse originally made them and I've never been disappointed in them since Rebok bought the design over 20 years ago. It's just like wearing a pair of tennis shoes, very comfortable. I especially like the model 8894
