I just received my second pair of these now. They are comfortable out of the box, waterproof, insanely grippy, and fairly light for a steel toe. I am a equipment technican by trade and can find myself in a variety of enviroments and precarious positions. These are much less clunky than some steel toes I have had in the past, and breathe well in the summer. They also do well in the cold, the toe box is fairly wide so you can wear a much thicker sock when needed. These mostly seem to hold up well for what I do. That said, the reviews about soles cracking are spot on, my first pair is 14 months old and starting to show a slight crack. I go through a pair of boots a year normally anyway, and these are down to about 30% tread. I do wish they lasted longer, but with the soft, slip resistant soles, that is a trade off that is expected. All in all a good medium duty boot, and made in Portland! I would like to see an expansion in the line of boots coming out of Portland since they all seem to share the same sole, but for now these are working.

I bought these boots because they were lightweight and had a steel toe. I usually go through a pair of boots in 6 months, and after two years of near constant wear on rocky terrain, dirt roads that are almost always either mud or ice, some roofing jobs, crawling under buildings, and a bunch of work around Diesel engines on a concrete pad, these boots won't give up. The leather upper is ragged from rough work conditions, but is still waterproof. Feels like a tennis shoe, but are rugged. I am pretty tough on boots and I am starting to doubt I will need a replacement pair for another year.

I use these daily for work in the maritime industry. So far no issue with water penetration, good grip on different wet surfaces. I'd recommend a thick sock to compliment them as they are rather sturdy; which is a good thing for me.

These were very comfortable boots. They looked and felt durable, but the sole held up for less than 8 months. The soles split wide open due to the fact that I kneel constantly at work as an electrician. I took them back and to the place of purchase and was told that even though the boots had a year warranty that they couldn't do anything about it. I was told I had misused the boots and purchased the wrong boot for the job. Just be ware if these boots if you plan to kneel much at work.

These are the best work boot I have ever had. It's like putting on a solid pair of tennis shoes. They're even better with the work insoles. I bought another pair I liked them so much.

These are great boots! Super comfortable with a very short break in period. These look great, feel comfortable and made here in the USA. I am on my feet 10 to 12 hours a day and these are great. As long as I can get six months out of them I will be very happy with them.

I have had the boots about 7 months now. They are very comfortable boots. After wearing the boots for a month or so I noticed the soles would make a squishing noise when walking in puddles. I realized its a 2 piece molded sole, and the first layer was punctured. The sole was sucking in water and squishing it out! After three months I felt something loose in the boot. it was the heal pad from the insoles. After 6 months The shoe strings on one boot came apart. Last week I noticed the sole of the boot is separating in the front! I have never had a pair of boots fall apart like this! I hope I just got an odd pair.

I work or a local highway department and was looking for a good boot. I cleaned and treated these boots every 3 months or so for just over a year. They were comfortable and looked great. Then my right foot began to feel wet for no apparent reason, so i figured it might be time to clean and treat them. I did so, and then replaced the laces. Then I noticed the sole of my right boot. It had broken cleanly in half right in the groove of the tread. The leather uppers still look great but, I now know why my foot was getting wet. So I put the boots aside and resumed wearing the old Timberland these were meant to replace. Very doubtful I will buy another pair.
