These boots are everything I’ve wanted in a boot! I was concerned about break in time and having a job that has me on my feet 10+ hrs a day. After the first 3 days, they felt like I’ve worn them for months! I’ve had no foot, hip or back pain. My feet have stayed warm and dry even in the frigid northern temps. These boots have taken a beating and are still going strong. I’m a customer for life 🙌
