Great weird boot - amazing for long road rucks
Who am I:230LB. 40min 5 mile. 2.5h 12 mile ruck. I like hooha things.I recommend you get different boots depending on what your task is - get the right tool for the job as they say. This is a great product for ruck marches.Background: These boots look weird and very crinkly/noisy. But didn't have a choice since I was short on the packing list and that's all the PX had in my size.BEST ACCIDENT EVER. These shoes (with a pair of good insoles - recommend Walkomfy Heavy Duty!) are better than the garmont bifida for long road marches/uniform runs. The noise goes away once you break them in. I am on my second set and not looking anywhere else.The garmont bifida probalby still wins on the rope climb or super rough hiking where grip is needed... so I have a couple of pairs of these too.Try them.

Solid lightweight comfort.
This is a second pair I got (my new spare pair, 😂) because I love them. Those used ones are over three years old. They take a while (couple weeks or less) to break in and go silent. When new, they crinkle like a paper bag around the ankles. Soon that's fine and super silent. Very comfortable in the long wear through the day with more support than tennis shoes. Gripping durable soles, breathable, Nato eyelets for easy on and off. Did I mention there weight? Hardly any. I wear them almost all day everyday. Casual to work. Not waterproof but dry quickly when wet.DA PAM 670-1 (dated 31 MAR 2014)The last picture shows three years wear on the soles. Dirt, grass, yard work and all the city concrete. Worth the money to me.

Comfortable but low quality
Love the boots, very comfortable. However, I bought these in 6 months ago and they are already falling apart.

Material on upper part of boot does make noise (krinkle sound) at first.
I was worried about the noise the upper part of the boot material was making when I first purchased them,(almost returned them) after weeks of use , the upper material makes a little noise (krinkle sound). I just trusted that as they got worn in they would stop making the noise... and after several weeks of significant use the noise is far less.Carefull when you first open and ensure the toe box is not misshapen, mine was, but I chose to just use them as is.when you order wide they are acutally wide, I am used to ordering wide for normal feet, these are actually wide and will be extra roomy if you have a normal width foot.I like the look of the entire boot, and was excited to find something in a size 15 which also ran true to size.The boots price point seems high, for all the competition out there at lower price points that are good builds as well. but I am happy with the look and perfromance for these several weeks.I am also the size of an NFL lineman, and they seem up to the task. (use superfeet insole, but their insole is amazing too.)UPDATED! once worn in these boots are quiet and super comfy.

Poor Quality and Durability
I had these boots for 1 day and the canvas codura detached from the boot. These things can’t hold up to a day in the office, so how are they supposed to perform and hold up in the field? I will be returning these and asking for replacements or a refund. I have worn Rocky boots for years and never had issues until recently. I am pleased with the fit and feel of the boot, but the durability that I expect just isn't there. These were intact for less less than 24 hours. The boots can’t handle the bending and flexing “rigors” of garrison... Not pleased.

Pretty Good Boots
These are pretty good boots. The soles are very comfortable; literally the most comfortable military boot I've ever had! Although these are good, there are a couple things that need fixing (reason for the 3 stars).Color: I was pretty dissatisfied in the color. They have a light picture and then if you scroll down you see darker pictures of this boot. The actual color seems more of just Coyote and not Coyote Brown (compared to my other Coyote Brown boots). The Coyote brown I've had before is usually darker. Rocky has another lightweight boot in the suggestions at the bottom of this one whose actual true color is Coyote Brown. I would've ordered that one but it wasn't on Amazon at the time I got these.Laces: These laces are somewhat short. I've broken my boots in (been wearing for about 2 months now) and I still have to constantly, excessively tighten these to get them through the top eyelets of the boots all the way. This creates little room for a double knot, which is needed. I really like these boots but I may need new laces.Width: This wasn't actually bad at all. I always get wide sizes but with these the wide was actually really big. Again, not a bad thing, just got a regular size and they fit great. The toebox is also pretty wide already so I would suggest getting a regular size unless if you wear maybe an extra wide shoe or something.
