Perfect for extreme weather conditions and heavy hiking
I have had these boots for many hunting trips. Super comfortable!! The high ankle support is super needed for extreme hiking. I have taken them up multiple mountains for bear, deer, and even elk hunting. Absolutely my favorite part of my gear. It is 100% waterproof. I have stepped in rivers multiple times a day on one of my trips and nevwr got wet inside. And super warm with some good socks they are truly and amazing shoe!!

Comfortable and Fits Perfectly (as always)
I have bought six low and mid Oboz shoes in the last 8 years. They last a long time (I am still wearing them, although I have swapped out the insoles). I like to have several on hand - for walking / hiking, work and around the house. And they always fit well with great arch support. My oldest though are beginning to show their age and the soles are not as grippy as they used to be. So, I bought a new pair. This is my first 8" Hiking Boot though and I really like these! Looking forward to taking these on adventures and getting many years out of them. I also got black so they would look good with my clothes for Mass in the Wisconsin Snow (don't want to slip with my other dress shoes). Sawtooth / Sawtooth II was the prior Oboz models I had bought.

A very well made boot, but......
.... They run a bit more narrow than other quality brands that I have used. Full disclosure... while I do have a truly medium foot as far as width goes, I suffered a broken big toe years ago on my left foot and it is now arthritic. Too much pressure on that toe from footwear can agitate it- especially in colder weather. Coming from brands like Salmon and Merrel, those brands have not agitated my toe at all.However, after walking in these boots for about 12-15 miles total now, they seem to be breaking in. Still slightly tight, but not as bad as in the beginning. So, at least my sample did in fact require some breaking in. The are well made. I personally like the sole. Grabs well on rocks and seems to shed mud decently. They are warm. I did a hike at -9F and had no issues with midweight FITS socks. They are waterproof. The trail we took had several stream crossings and the stream was still running water. Feet never got wet. I think (and am hoping with a few more miles) that these will completely break in. I would suggest that if you can, try these on first before buying. But as far as what Oboz states these boots do, they do. they are very well built.

Everything in a boot I had hoped for
These boots were everything I had hoped for Im in construction and they are very comfortable light weight have great grip while using them for work are hiking I’m on my feet all day on all kinds of job sites and they have out preformed any boot I have ever bought! Oboz is the only boot I’ll buy from now on ! A little pricey I thought at first but it’s a well constructed boot you get what you pay for ! I liked these boots so much I bought another pair of Oboz boots that are more designed for hiking and biking lightweight and waterproof more of a high top tennis shoe style look ! One other thing Oboz makes a good looking boot too they look great ! Don’t hesitate give them a try once you buy I think you’ll be sold on them too !

Best and most comfortable boot to date.......
I have tried every top brand boot out here and more expensive. I am on my feet 10-12 hours a day on concrete. I decided to try these. So far they are by far the most comfortable boot I have owned. I take them off at end of long days and my feet feel like they have not been on concrete at all. Plus the insulation keeps your feet warm. They are actually "Waterproof" as they claim. A lot of manufacturers claim they are but these are 100%. I tested them out as took my Akita for a walk and we walked up and down her favorite stream in the cold (snow on the ground) for at least 30 minutes and no leaks and feet kept nice and warm. I will be buying the "shoe"version of these as well this week.

Oboz quality is going downhill fast
Second pair of these shoes purchased this year. Both pairs have split open at the seams. I'm on my third pair of these boots in total The first pair lasted a year and half of hiking the dog 2-3 times a day. The first pair this year lasted 6 months. This last pair lasted 3 months. Quality is definitely going downhill at Oboz

not the same color as advertised
The boots are nice, Oboz come narrow so I order the wide for comfort. Couldn't get wide in these boots but they seem to fit pretty good and should feel better when broke in. Only 3 stars because in typical Amazon fashion the color isn't near the color advertised. They show a sand brown but when arrived they are a dark dark brown.....I hate that color but these boots are to hard to find so I'll keep them
