I always have trouble with fitting my footwear because I have wide feet high arches and I had an operation on my right foot. Every sneaker, shoe, boot I try on has some level of discomfort. These felt great right out of the box. Comfortable inside, good support for my ankles and the width is perfect. I ordered medium width, these boots are very comfortable.

I’m on my feet in a warehouse for 10 hours a day, 4 days a week, and I’ve gotten one good day’s wear outta these boots.
Pros - The boot has a great amount of support for my narrow feet. I have a fairly high arch and the boot supported it fairly well. By the end of my shift, my feet were not hurting as they did before in my Saucony running shoes. The shoe isn’t heavy or too bulky.
Cons - When you’re on your feet for 10 hours plus, no shoe will prevent pain but a great shoe will make sure the pain isn’t severe. My feet did start to eventually hurt. There’s a part of the boot that comes up the ankle and rubs up against my skin and irritates me, but nothing tube socks can’t fix.
An overall great boot. 4 out of 5 stars.

Roomy toe box, comfortable. They are lite in weight for such a tall boot. I am concerned about the height over time and rubbing on the sides of my calves, definitely need to wear tall socks. There is a side zipper, I did not see it in the photos or the description. I have to loosen the laces enough to get my foot in the boot while using the zipper that I don't see the point.

I didn't like the shoes, I mainly got it for the style but I did have some issues at the location of where my ankles are. I posted a picture pointing out the areas in Blue. These blue areas legit dig into my ankle causing bruises and soreness. I thought Id give the shoes a week to break in, but so far walking and going up stairs have been a struggle.

Love my boots. Added insoles for comfort and bought new laces to add a bit of style/flare! A bit disappointed they weren't on the list to reorder with the 2021 credit.

Much lighter than expected. Composite toe box is roomy. Can wear 2 pairs of socks and still have room. Does not rub on top of toes. Not as much arch support as I would like but it's acceptable.Has a little cushion inside but not much. Adding an insert would take care of this &be fine. Side zip and velcro tab make for easy off & on. Plenty of ankle support. Regular width was perfect for me. Lace up closure in addition to the zip/velcro give secure comfortable fit. Also are Waterproof ( worn in rain &snow. No Wet Feet ! Comfortable enough to wear all day - standing on feet (10hour shift) @ Amazon FC. Overall very happy with these boots.
