Servus Comfort Technology 14" PVC Steel Toe Men's Work Boots, Black - Steel Toe, 5

I was very happy to see that when I got these boots delivered they were stamped with Made in the USA. With a name like Servus and the low pricing I was expecting an import but was pleasantly surprised with the domestic manufacturing. One thing I can say is don't listen to others on the sizing. I wear a 9.5 shoe and based off of reviews I went with a 10 because these supposedly run small. My feet swim in these size 10 shoes. I am certain that based on this experience a size 9 would fit just right. I don't plan to use these to walk long distances, so I'll deal with the larger size, but if you have to do a lot of walking in these I would avoid going the next size up. Maybe with an insert and some insulated socks they would be better, but as-is they're just too big on my feet.As far as the boot itself, I'm very impressed with the quality. It seems like good quality rubber with good bonding between the different panels that make up these boots. The sole isn't quite as comfortable as some LaCrosse knee boots I used to wear hunting, but those were 3 times as expensive and still weren't what I'd call very comfortable. I just spent about an hour with my feet under water up to my calves with these boots on and my socks were bone dry when I walked back up to the house and took them off. I couldn't be happier with that part. I'll report back on durability later on, but I won't be putting a lot of miles on them, so it'll have to be about how long the rubber lasts before they fall apart. Like tires and o-rings, the quality of the rubber will determine how long it will take to dry rot and delaminate. Just based off of what I'm seeing now though (no stinky recycled rubber smell like from overseas brands here), I think it'll do fine. For the price, if I get 3 years light use out of these without leakage I'll be happy.

SUMMARY: These run about 1 to 2 sizes large. They're bare bones but seem to do what they're designed for.First off, these run huge. I typically wear a women's 7.5, which is the equivalent of a men's 6 or so. I bought the 5, and I almost certainly could have bought the 4s and been fine. The 5s fit loosely, even with a thick sock, there's room for a winter liner and another pair of socks.I bought these because we live on marsh land and I wanted something to be able to walk in the woods without runing my shoes. Women's rain boots are multipart, with seams that are prone to leaking, are fancy and expensive. These are single piece, cheap, hopefully won't leak and I don't care what they look like, they're for standing in mud! Assuming these are truly water tight, they're perfect for what I need. The boots are easy to put on and remove, the steel toe is pretty irrelevant for my needs, but seems to have decent coverage and the boots have a good tread. They have a knit fabric lining and a thin but serviceable insole. There are flags of plastic left along the mold lines, but they're purely cosmetic. These are cheap, functional work boots for a wet environment. I'll update once I try them in water, but if they don't leak, they're terrific.

Overall, I believe that these are great boots FOR THE MONEY. Context is key here. Are they mind blowingly amazing, super comfy, top of the line boots? No. Are they more than adequate for average joe use, for the cost? Absolutely. Would I recommend them if you're a hard-core, every day construction worker? Probably not...unless you're hard up for cash.My Intended Uses: I ordered these for some weekend concrete work and general "beater" boot duties around the house or up north. I do not work in any kind of construction field so they will not see daily wear and tear.Shipping & Packaging: Shipping was fast, 1 day. Packaging was normal, came in a sealed plastic bag. Nothing to complain about.Size & Fit: As other reviewers have said, they run a bit big. I usually wear a size 10 shoe and so often order a size up in boots to allow for room with thicker wool socks, etc. Well these boots I ordered in a size 10 and they fit (with the wool socks) perfectly. If you're wondering about sizes, definitely take a look at the size chart in the pictures on this listing. I followed their recommended measurements/sizes and it turned out to be correct.Comfortability: I would give them a "normal" comfort rating. They're definitely not what I would call "comfortable", in the sense that I think "wow, these are really comfy to walk around in". BUT, they are not UN-COMFORTABLE. They don't hurt the feet to walk around in and the steel-toe insert doesn't hurt or stick out in any bad way either.Quality: Overall quality control leaves a little to be desired. As you can see in my pictures, there are plenty of left over rubber tabs and pieces from when the excess rubber from the mold was trimmed off the boot. The cut on the tops of the boots are a little off as well. Does this impact functionality? No, just goes to show that QC isn't the primary focus of the manufacturer. But I didn't find anything that would negatively impact the actual use of the boot. There weren't any holes, or rips, or broken seams or anything of that nature, and the tread looked perfectly fine. Quite a hefty tread on the bottom.Weight: They're not HEAVY (I've definitely owned much heavier boots before), but they're not athletic shoe light either...not that you should reasonably expect that anyways. Just a relatively normal boot weight. To me it's not anything that would detract me from buying them again.Place of Origin: The boots have "Made In USA" on the top side of the boot. If that's important to you, then there you go.Overall Impression: Like I said, they're great boots...for the money. They probably won't last for 20 years, they're normal/average in comfort, and QC on the final product isn't exactly top notch. I guarantee there's plenty of better boots out there. BUT, for only $22.00 and PRIME shipping, you really can't complain too much. You get what you pay for, and considering I barely paid anything, I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase. If you need a heavy duty, long-term, every day construction boot, look elsewhere. If you just need a pair of cheap boots to muck around in on weekend projects, then these boots will do just fine and won't break the bank.

Amazing for the $22.97 price tag! I expected something that I could wear once or twice when I was doing some messy gardening- these have now become my go-to footwear for ALL things gardening- even mowing my lawn!My only advice is that you wear some ankle socks with them- they can get quite hot muggy inside so the socks help!So far- totally waterproof and very comfortable and true to size chart. Great purchase- can’t recommend this enough for “casual” waterproof shoes projects. Steel toes are added bonus to keep toes safe.
