A misunderstood boot. If I wanted Red ....
A misunderstood boot for sure. If I wanted to splurge for Red Wings or other name brand boots in the $300-350 range, that is what I would have purchased. This is a semi-serious work boot in the $150 range. If you are a destroyer of boots these are not for you. To wear around the house and to go shopping in, to have good ankle support at age 66 makes these nigh on perfect.Recently I retired and no longer need anything more durable than these. I only purchased these for two reasons. Better support than sneakers and the hipster look that seems so popular. If I get 3-4 years of good comfortable service from these, wearing them an average of 3-4 hours daily, then these boots are money well spent. If they disappoint or exceed my expectations I'll mention it here in a update. Can't maintain Red Wings or other, often resoled premium brand boots for $40 a year. Their crepe type soles don't last any longer IME.The pros of the boots:Extremely comfortable. The leather is soft but not limp, and is easy to get on and off because the leather gives a little. Fits well across the upper side of the arch. Width is spot on, no pinching or slipping. The heel cup and arch are becoming comfortable after wearing about 5 times. There is plenty of room in the toe box without being sloppy.Cons:The size 13 is just a bit too large. I'm close though, a thicker sock makes them just right.Summary is simple, these boots fit great, are comfortable within a couple weeks and now that I'm retired look great at a fair price. Just as important as toughness in my new life.Update 5/23/2021:Have worn these now for 6 months and for approx. 150 hours. Still my go to choice for wearing for an day out and about. These are very comfortable boots. Soles show just a bit of wear and still have not had to polish these. Small scuffs rub out nicely with my Kiwi horsehair brush. Leather is still soft and supple but supports itself nicely.These boots get lots of compliments . Go figure.UPDATE: 03/11/2022Wore these over the winter quite a bit. Still Comfortable, Have Been Durable, Still getting lots of compliments.UPDATE: 10/15/2022Wore a few times over the summer, they still what I wear when I know I will be walking a lot. Very comfortable on long days running around. Winter is about here and I have worn them on cool days. My feet stay warm with Gold Toe boot socks. Update again next spring.UPDATE 10/15/2023It was a hot summer and rarely wore these. Got them out the other day and brushed off the leather. Still looking good but could use some conditioning. Still very comfortable. Still get compliments. Here's to warm feet this winter.

Best boots
I get so excited twice a year when I buy these boots. I have worn this same boot for the last 8 years. I work in the HVAC/R field. These boots hold up for about six months. They keep my feet dry in the winter from the rain and cool in the summer because of the light color. They are soft and comfortable from the time you pull them out of the box. The weight is perfect for not getting me tired throughout the day. And I seem to just ware them around the house sometimes when doing my honey do list. Great boots

My new favorite boot
I ordered, tried on and returned three other boots before landing on this one.They are the perfect color brown and are made extremely well. The insole and foot bed are very comfortable and fit my feet like a nice pair of sneakers.They flex in the right places and the toe height is low enough that I can ride my motorcycle and feel the shifter. They are very stylish and feel great after walking job sites all day. They are very waterproof and that checks all boxes for me. Highly recommend

Working out well
I got these boots after getting another pair from another manufacturer that were supposed to be better boots that didn’t fit my heel at all.These are much more comfortable you don’t slip in the heel like the other ones did. My coworker and friend has several pairs of these that he has worn in the past and seems to get some pretty good life out of them. Some of the reviews will talk about the souls wearing out, which I can’t speak to personally, but something should be kept in mind…These are anti-slip boots. So the rubber is not going to be a very hard rubber. Still, my friend got two years or more out of his working every day on the job so I’m not gonna complain. These things are very comfortable and take almost 0 break In.The lacing is pretty straightforward. There’s only one of those hook things on the very top and it is very nicely shaped so that it doesn’t wear out your laces like many of them do. I personally don’t cinch it up very tightly around the ankle because it does add a bit of pressure to that area for me at least.These are way more comfortable than all of the Red Wings I tried on. I just couldn’t find any Red Wings that I thought would work for me despite really wanting to have a pair. Nice thing about these boots is that they don’t have any heel on them so for ladder work, and walking rooftops and such they are much safer and you can kind of feel what you’re doing more. Perhaps right out of the box they feel a bit stiffer, but that very quickly goes away. I’m pretty happy with the purchase, for half a day‘s wages, I’m not going to begrudge anything. Well worth it in my opinion. Way better than those crappy cheap boots where the bottom peels off. I’ve had way too many of those. You’ll probably buy five or six pair of those in the time it takes one of these to wear out.Finally, I’ve been spraying them off with a water hose after working with concrete all day, and yes the waterproofing seems to be working. Weather appears to be holding up well so far and it’s nice and soft.Size wise I would order true to your foot. I started off going with a 13 and edit up ordering a size down. Actually mine is a Wide to accommodate my wide feet, and they do that nicely.Worst case scenario, you don’t like them, you can return them. It’s pretty simple to do, and I had to do that with my first pair because they were too big. So no worries there.

Fit Well
Been using them for a little over a month daily and they've held up well. Been using them in wet condition and concrete and my feet have been staying dry. After wearing them all day my feet do not hurt. Not too heavy either on the feet

Runs large for me
I really like the look of the boot and the comfort level is good, but still in the break-in phase. I am usually a size 10 but had to size down to a 9 wide for the best fit. The quality seems to be good out of the box.

Bota de buena calidad y se siente comoda
Pedí medio número abajo de mi número ybel zapato me quedo exacto, se siente muy cómodo y de muy buena calidad, no planeo darle uso rudo, los usaré para vestir, si hay algún detalle más adelante actualizare la reseña, de momento lo siento muy bien, un poco pesados y el zapato derecho empuja ligeramente mi dedo gordo hacia el interior pero no lo considero un factor de peso para bajar la puntuación.
