These are great boots! I\'ve worn them for more than a decade. They are very comfortable and sturdy. They have great ankle support and look tough! Plus, they have a steel toe. I highly recommend them!

Great boots, look good. True to size for me 10 Wide, comfortable, easy to break in. These are good cool weather boots (don't expect to wear these in summer). Would have liked a little deeper tread, but they are upland boots.

This is my second purchase from Zappos.com and have been extremely pleased with both. These boots fit like a glove right out of the box, just as my first pair did that I bought 6 years ago.

Good looking and comfortable with no break-in period. I wear these boots for construction work. I like them so much I don't want to get them dirty.

Overall:

Real classic boots for a fair price. Removable insert gives room for any orthotic, or any comfort insole you prefer. Average arch. Feels like a Frye, very solid. Probably half size big but I like thick socks, my inserts are thick, and I am a wider medium width. Toe is not boxy- its tapered, thick soles good for the cold, and they are waterproof! Chicago winter- worthy!

Eight days ago we were pheasant hunting in Pierre, S.D. and a friend was wearing this boot. I commented on the great look and he said, "These are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn in the field, they're completely waterproof and I wore them all last winter. They're the best boots I've ever had." I came home, hit the Zappos button and, sure enough, they had 'em. Thirty six hours later they were on my feet. You got to love the service from Zappos. Well, he was right. These boots are 100% correct for size, in both length and width. They have great support and feel like a well worn glove right out of the box. It's only the 5th of October and we had rain and snow today, which is not my thing, but today, I was so happy as I put on my new kicks. All day comfort and they are everything my buddy said they are. Do yourself a favor and order a pair of these right now.

The leather is not as heavy as I expected, heel is cheap looking plastic. Overall comfortable boot with pretty much no break in.

I don't like little bitty shoes. I like boots. I have worn a pair of these for about 3 years 90% of the time. I use mass transit for most commuting and I used to backpack a lot so I don't fear the walking and do quite a bit of it. I don't take good care of them. They are nigh indestructible. They're also extremely comfortable and good on my back. My fiancee who was really sick of them a long time ago insisted I wear a pair of Clarks. I did for a while, but I was having a lot of back issues (also due to a laptop I was carrying poorly). Switching back to the boots drastically reduced them. It's not a star killer, but the one thing that bugs me about all of the Chippewa boots I've worn over the years is that the thin cloth lining tears right out within months while all other parts of their boots seem ready to withstand a daily carpet bombing. Doesn't detract from comfort from what I've noticed. I would imagine these would last a long time for anybody using them once a week or less. I could easily see getting a couple more years out of these if I resole them, but I think I want a darker pair.

Overall:

These shoes look great. They are very comfortable and require no breaking in. The weight on the shoe is very light due to the soles. These shoes provide good traction and ankle support. My only problem is they don't breath that well. It's around 90 degrees here and after about three hours my feet start to sweat. They should be great soon as we get to fall weather here in the south. Overall, this is a nice shoe.

Overall:

The boots cost a lot but will last for years and have top quality comfort. The insulated tongue sucks because the tongue rubs against the shin bone if the boot is laced up. But I found that it was very easy to remove the large Kotex size (1950's size) insulation pad and throw it away. Now I can sit on my 2007 Goldwing with both feet flat on the pavement with the help of the 2 1/4" heel height.

These boots are fantastic! My true size is 13-D but I normally have to order 14's to get a good fit. The 14's were very loose, so I exchanged for 13's and they fit like a glove right out of the box. I also usually wear lace-up boots when riding but these are a lot more comfortable especially in warmer weather. Thanks Zappos for the great service...

Overall:

The right boot at a great price! Comfortable right out of the box! Since there are only 9's, 9.5's & 10's in stock for now, my experience may be of help. I am generally a 10B (sometimes a 9.5--my feet are more narrow than medium) in most shoes. Bike boots and cowboy boots seem to be sized from the heel up as opposed to the toe down like shoes. From reading the reviews, I went with a 9 and they are PERFECT! Just to give you one last source of reference--if I place my right foot on top of a ruler, heel to toe measures 10�. My calves are 14." These boots are not too wide like some of the Harleys. And, frankly, I like not having an inside zipper to deal with. Ordered these Sun. night, and I've already got them on my feet as I type this out to you Tues. afternoon! THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN NICE PEOPLE AT ZAPPOS!!!!

Overall:

Gotta get ‘em - Got my boots about 2 years ago and they only get better with time. These are the real deal. So if you want the finest Engineer boot money can buy, look no further. Buy these boots to fit. Don't mess around with sole inserts or the like. They fit more like cowboy boots, so if you have a high instep, you may have trouble getting them on. The oil resistant soles grip the asphalt like nobody’s business. The looks speak for themselves.

Boots were very well made, comfortable, look like they will last for years. Only problem was with sizing: I'm usually a 9, but these were about a half-size larger, so am returning for the 8.5.

I bought these as a Valentine's Day gift - and they were very well received. He wore them immediately, and loved them. Water-proof, soft on inside, cozy, comfortable, zipper was a huge plus - perfect for Chicago winters with the snow, sleet, freezing rain, slush! The size was 100% correct.

Disappointed with heel - Chippewa has made a change in the construction of the heel on their engineer boots. Changed from multiple layers of leather to a solid rubber heel. Cheap look. Not happy with the change.

The only problem with these boots is that the tongue is a little thick which causes them to rub on your ankles. Other than that, there is enough room for an extra pair of socks and, so far, they have held up well.

Chippewa's 12" Wellington - These are very nice boots. Chippewa has been a favorite for years, Workmanship is first class and the leather uppers will outlast me. My only complaint would be that the shaft is too small for my foot. Once they are on they fit like custom made. I would buy them again and again. Mike

What happened to size 14?Great work boot, I bought a pair here from Zappos size 14 and now they don't carry that size anymore. The boot holds up well and is very comfortable, true to size. I've been living in mine for a couple of years now. Had to get the sole replaced which gave me another years worth of wear. I want another pair size 14, now what do I do?

Reviewer: Monroy from San Marcos CA

Overall:

Beautiful American craftsmanship, but uncomfortable for me - Aesthetically, these are the nicest and most well-made boots I've ever seen. You CAN'T deny the quality of the craftsmanship when you first hold these in your hands. The leather that these boots are made of is thick yet supple and a gorgeous rich brown color. Unfortunately, they just weren't comfortable to me. The tongue was the worst offender because it dug into my ankles where it loops and stitches into the shoe (to make it waterproof). The heel also felt abnormally high and felt like I was wearing cowboy boots (which I don't like). I tried my hardest to like these boots. I even wore them for a week trying to break them in and soften the uncomfortable tongue but to no avail. I had to return them to the store. All I can say is TRY THEM ON and walk. If the tongue feels fine to you, then it's a no brainer...KEEP THEM!

These boots are gorgeous and very comfortable. They look very elegant with pants or skirt/dress but I don't think that I'll wear them in the rain.
