Great shoes - These are great boots. The zippers on the side are super, quality materials and well worth the price.

Brands I'd also recommend: none - buy these

Don't bother, better choices out there. Granted, these shoes look pretty good, but they look much better on Zappos nifty photo preview than they do in real life. That said, these shoes are incredibly uncomfortable. The leather is a hard shell and the shoes seem to pinch in all the wrong places. The worst part? The side zipper is very poorly designed. It is positioned at an angle that is too vertical and too far back toward the heel (difficult to explain, but trust me). In order to leave the shoes laced and use the slip-on aspect, utilizing the zipper is impossible. You have to unlace the shoe, or at least loosen the laces, each time you put it on, which defeats the purpose of having a zipper boot.

These Shoes Rock!!! I am a 37 year old EMT in Boston and… surprize! I'm a fat guy. I require an extra wide (EE - which is actually just a "wide") which is how I found this shoe in the first place. Couldn't be happier with the looks, the fit, or the comfort... I might just sleep in these babies tonight. For the price... best shoes/boots I've ever owned.

Correctional Officer - I bought this boot about one year ago. The look is great, mine has a side zip which is great for getting on and off; however, back in the Achilles tendon area a piece of the boot appears plastic but is harder started to poke through the lining and now digs into the back of the heel/Achilles area rendering the boot unwearable. The comfort of putting the boot on right out of the box was AMAZING! Just like tennis shoes, great arch support as well.

Love these boots!!! I have them in the beige, not the black. Since I got them, I've rarely taken them off. They look great, feel soft and comfy, and my feet have stayed warm and dry thru all the rain and snow we've had lately. I highly recommend them. And no, I don't use the zipper, but who cares? I didn't buy them for the zipper!

These have a great fit, good look, an alternative to a work boot that's light and comfortable. Not to mention outstanding service!

Would never purchase these boots again. After 6 months of normal wear, the sole separated from the shoe, tried gluing it back on, but just kept coming off. Very dissatisfied with the construction of these boots.

These shoes were disappointing as they only lasted through two short (5 week) trips to rocky, sandy, and difficult terrain. After these two trips, the insoles and the outsoles came unglued and deteriorated, and the boots had to be thrown away. Do not depend upon this shoe when traveling to rough terrain, especially if there is little access to replacement boots at your destination. For the money, you could get sturdier and better shoes.

This is a very comfortable boot. I like the fit and the side zipper takes the lace up out of the equation.

Comfortable, straight out of the box. Working as a contractor in Iraq, I have met several people who like them very much (one said they were uncomfortable). If you have a high instep (as I do) you won't be able to get away with using the zipper only to put on/take off.

I have had a 12" pair of these boots for a year and a half. I have to go out in the field every now and then at the drop of a hat so I needed something that I could wear in the office and in the field. They are pretty durable for the kind of things I do. I don't think they would hold up as a full on work boot though. They are super comfy, I wish I had the money to buy 40 or so pairs so I could wear them for the rest of my life.

These boots are one of the most comfortable pair of boots I have ever had. I have had them for about a year now and wear them at least five days a week; and mine have not fallen apart or given me any problems at all. After the initial stretch in it was easy to use the zipper for on and off. These are my favorite boots and I will by a second pair, in case they don't have these when mine actually wear out. Overall, great pair of boots.

Comfortable shoe for being on your feet all day. I love Zappos! Super fast delivery! Great customer service!

Bought these for my son to wear to work. He loves them. He has to wear solid black shoes and they're hard to find in wide widths. So far they are holding together nicely for as hard as he is on work shoes. Hope they are still around when he needs a new pair.

Compared to the other tactical brand that I bought, this boot is light and does not require a break in period like my last pair of boots.

The shoe is very comfortable, I've been wearing boots for 20 years. Plenty of tread. However, these boots mixed with my sweat make a funky smell not like any shoe I've owned. Not sure if it's the leather or the sole but it's funky. Other than that, 5 stars.

Brands I'd also recommend: none at this time.

This boot wears good but not ideal for tactical everyday use. The rubber sole has came apart from the heel several times and eventually just gave them away.

Brands I'd also recommend: tennis shoes

I love these boots I wear them on numerous occasions since I have received them. A lot of people are shocked that my boots are actually Converse since that's the it brand nowadays two thumbs up!
