I rarely give bad reviews but I got an email asking for this review. I did a free fence job for my church. The rewarded me with Carhartt gift cards. I bought these boots and some pants (love the pants). I have worn comparable Chippewa boots for 20yrs. I thought I would give these a chance. I have worn them several times. I used boot wax to protect and waterproof. Every time I have worn these they hurt my feet and it takes 3 days for my feet to recover. They scrape the skin off the back of my heels. I tried insoles but then they scrape my heels even worse. the rubber sole is so hard it feels like I and walking on a flat rock. They are a little heavy. They do look great. I expected a break in period but I dont think my feet can handle it.

Great fit with a comfortable sole! Definitely worth the money.

These are built good. They seem solid. They act waterproof. The top of the boot is a little narrow for a larger calf person. The insoles are horrible and will destroy your knees and hips. I recommend an alternative insole. I recommend these as a backup set of boots
