I wanted this boot to work. I originally purchased my size of 10.5. The heel was slipping very badly after a day of break in. Along with that, it pinches your ankle to the point of circulation loss trying to get the upper loops tight. Within about 5 minutes of walking, it all loosens back up again. It's a never ending battle of over tightening your laces and loosening them to regain circulation. On top of that my feet sweated horribly in these, unlike my Georgia's or Wolverines. Zappos sent me out a pair of 10's, as I felt that maybe I purchased a size too large. While the 10 did seem to do better at first, I ended up having ALL the same issues after 3 days. Zappos is taking care of me. I really wanted these boots to work but Avenger Boots has certainly lost a customer.

Georgia. I've had three pairs and I still prefer them even when worn to the wood

These boots are amazing the comfort right out of the box was exceptional. The size was true and the style is sick. Its like im wearing my regular high tops with the added protection of the carbon toe. Everyone asks about them and if there actually work boots. The only thing is I wish they were a little bit lighter.

I like the look and i did the feel until i started walking in them about three hours after wearing them my foot starting hurting on the ball of my foot by the time i got out of work i had a good size blister on the ball of my foot i removed the insole and seen that the stitching was right in the middle of the boot and all it did was rubbed my foot tell it blistered will never where them again. This happened to me about ten years or more ago and i couldn't remember what brand they were but i think i found that brand.

Feels good after I put in different insoles. Great for indoor warehouse. Wicking tech helps with moisture. 10hrs a day in these was good.

First, I didn't get these on Zappos - I got them at Amazon, but I wanted to share my opinion.
Second, please note that I have specific feet problems that make it hard for me to find shoes and boots. My feet have widened as I've gotten older due to hyper-flexible joints, which also means that my arches fall when I stand, walk, jump and run. In addition, the padding of my heels bulges away, meaning my heel bones aren't supported. This is called calcaneal valgus.
As far as the esthetics, I think these are pretty attractive boots - but I don't choose boots for comfort.
These boots offer oil and slip resistance, waterproofing, and electrical hazard, and composite safety toes. The tongues don't have a loop for the laces because the tongues are attached most of the way up the laces area.
The shoes fit true to size, with wide being comfortable for me, and there is a bit of extra height if you need more for an orthopedic insert. The toebox area is wider than the heel area for people like me with a wider toe area, which is great.
The insole provides some arch support but because the material is just soft foam and there's nothing under it to preserve the shape, you rapidly forget there's foam and arch support, so you'd definitely want to add to or swap out the insoles if you have any sort of problems with your feet getting sore. After only a short time, my feet hurt with the provided insoles.
As long as you don't tie the laces too tightly, the ankle area doesn't hurt. The sides are fairly well padded, which definitely helps. The laces, however, come untied too easily, so you should probably replace them with Locklaces or double-tie them.
The outsoles are made of hard rubber which doesn't seem to be the most durable. Just wearing it several times and there's modest damage, probably because of the caster deck I work on.
Overall, I like these boots, but I wish that they have a better insole in them.

The shoes need to come with inserts or you should have the option to get inserts made for the shoes. Unfortunately, they did not have the work boots in my size so I had to order men's which were two sizes smaller. The inserts that I just had made at Cincy Ortho won't fit the boots so now I need to try to figure something else out. Need to have more selection for women.

I prefer slip-ons but, due to limited options (this was through a corporate account), I settled for these. They look fine although this style is not versatile (I wouldn't wear these to an important meeting). At first, just popping my foot in to be sure they fit - I was satisfied and they seemed comfortable. However, after walking around with them for only a few hours, I'm getting a hot spot on the tops of my toes - big toe in the left boot and smaller toes in the right boot. Hopefully this is just a breaking in period and that will go away - will update.

These boots may look fine but they are not very comfortable. They also trap the sweat in. They smell so bad the only reason i got these ones is because we are now forced to order our boots trough this site. thanks!
