Great Boots!

Apr 04, 2018

I picked up my first set around 3 years ago. They fit great out of the box and the break-in period was very short. I wore them daily while I worked on hard concrete floors. After about a year and half I had worn down the insoles pretty badly and got some Dr. Scholes and I wore them for about another year and a half. I want able to find the same pair that I owned at any stores that I checked and I finally checked on the website and found them. Purchased another pair and have been wearing them daily since I recieved them.

Currently my favorite footwear

Mar 24, 2018

Pros: Black. Leather. Comfortable. Breathable like they say. Pretty durable. I actually really like the lace hooks on top. Good traction in snow (double up on socks though). My first pair lasted a year which is hard for me to accomplish. Cons: Not steel toe (sometimes has its benefits butI found I prefer it). Tread tends to pick up large slabs of mud which causes a hydroplaning effect; It's like a mud-magnet. The soles wore out quicker on my second pair.

pretty good and I'm extremely hard to fit

I didn't know that these were made by Wolverine so when I first received them I was skeptical as they are always too skinny. But with some patience and the help of a pair of good stretchers I was able to make them work. Now they're actually wide enough to pass for 4E,s. After about 3 weeks of working on them and wearing intermittently they are now my primary boots. I love that they're just lined and not a waterproof bootie inside. I don't know what those crazy locking lace hooks are supposed to do. I just went to shorter laces and skip the hooks. I like speed hooks but "COME ON, USE THE REGULAR ONES!!!" And put them on top too! Can't wait for the brown ones to come out now!!

My first set just wore out. I purchased them in 2000 1 year before retiring from the job. I wore these all day at work and would leave them on at home. My hobby is motorcycle touring and they would be on for 16hrs a day. I've hiked in them and wear them out just running errands. Theyve been thru rain, snow, Death Valley heat. Prob get another year out of them, but one of the laces just came apart. Love these boots, wouldve paid 5x as much for this kind of quality.
