Solid, comfortable work boots
I want to preface this review by saying, I'm very hard on boots and it is very difficult to find a comfortable pair that aren't lace up. I've had terrible luck buying pull on boots. The heel areas inside tend to tear up rather quickly before I can even wear the boots out. And, other boots I've tried don't tend to fit well after a while. All of this due in part, to the fact that I have a fused ankle. Other boots I've worn have hurt my feet, lost their fitment, and torn up within a half of a year. I've tried "Worx", "Redwing", along with some cheaper and more expensive brands with terrible luck. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, I'm gonna say these boots are fantastic. The fact that they have a zipper will hopefully prevent the inside material from ripping out. I think I'm still in the break-in period, but right out of the box? These boots feel and look great! Only recently have my toes been rubbing and wearing on the insole causing them to be a little sore. Took a couple weeks of extensive labor to "break down" the interior. I've added an extra insole and usually wear 2 pairs of socks. The outsole has stood up really well to molten iron spills and other iron foundry work. I'm extremely happy with them and would 100% buy them again. I normally wear a regular toe box boot, but ordered wide this time. Glad I did. I've considered buying another pair for recreation. I'll see how these finish breaking in first. So, yeah...I have special pediatric considerations, (fused ankle), I'm about as hard on a pair of boots as a guy can be, and I would buy another pair without thinking about it. They're easy to get off and on, and I've had good results walking through water puddles and wearing them in the rain. My feet stayed dry. I would tell anyone who has had terrible luck with buying boots to try these. I am pleasantly surprised.Sincerely,Husband of this account holder
