Men's Waterproof Classic 8" Side Zip Desert Tactical Boots Desert 10D (Medium)

Have used these as my only boots for work and hunting for 10 years. My retirement gig was a special needs bus driver in Michigan so that meant hot summers and cold icy winters out working a chair lift and any bus driver will tell you about bus cold floors. My feet are never wet, and by adding sheepskin insoles and good socks they are never cold in winter.I buy a new pair every fall to pass footwear inspection and the soles last a full year on cement and are still good enough I pass them on to a nephew who wears them till they fall apart a few years later.

I purchased my first pair, a half size larger, a little over a year ago. They fit a bit large, I ordered a half size larger per the review suggestions. That was unneeded.For the year I've had them, I've done everything from hundreds of days of work, backpacking, airsoft events, and just general daily wear some days. I estimate between 1200 and 1500 miles of walking, backpacking, and sprints.Very comfortable. Waterproof, although not terribly breathable. The past month or so I've experienced a buildup of mildew in the boots, from months of sweat and never really drying out. That's my bad. I think with good drying and a change to wool socks with a liner itll be much better.All around, one of the best boots I've ever owned. And at a fantastic price.I've ordered a second pair a half size smaller. My package vanished after delivery, but the retailer is fantastic on working with me. I think theyll be my boots for as long as this seller Carrie's them.

Very comfortable lightweight boot. I've been trudging along in mud and puddles that have covered my ankles and I have yet to get my socks wet. As far as wear and tear, I've only worn them two weeks and they're holding together just fine.UPDATE!!!!!! It's been 3 years since I first purchased these boots. I'm ordering another pair when I get my next COVID check so I'll be ready for work. I am a truck driver for construction sites hauling dirt, gravel and asphalt etc. I also haul semi loads of scrap metal to industrial scrap yards, garbage and demolition materials to landfills. These boots have seen it all. I have worn these boots at least 6 days a week for 3 years, for work and just everyday wear and the inside is finally wearing out to the point they are uncomfortable. The soles have just a little bit of the nubs left. The zippers still work like the day I bought'm. I literally took them out of the box, put them on and zipped them up 2 years later the laces got caught on something and for the first time I had to tie them. That's right, they were in the same knot they were shipped in until that day. They are STILL waterproof, granted I have spilled on or walked through hydraulic fluid, oil, you name it so that might help. BEST BOOTS I HAVE EVER BOUGHT.

They seem to be a great boot, but they ended up being too big. I ordered a size 10 and my toes had way too much wiggle room at least an inch to inch and a half, so I'd order them about a half size smaller than what you'd normally wear, if I were you. Currently go through the exchange process, so after I receive the next ones and they end up fitting well, I'll revisit this review and give it 5 stars.

Delivered early, packaged well and they fit and look great! Thought I should update this so here it is. I bought these almost a year ago along with some lifts expecting to wear them with the lifts for part of a Halloween costume and then ditching them. Well Halloween came and went and I am still wearing these daily and they are holding up great! I have pretty much run the gamut with these, walking, running, climbing, snow, ice, mud, rain, hot pavement, hot sand, salt water... They are holding up great and the traction is excellent! They do get a little stiff the next day at times depending on how wet they are when I take them off but they quickly relax to the perfect fit for me after I have them on for a few minutes. These totally surprised me for such a reasonably priced boot. If you buy these and are having problems getting them to fit right try this. Put on a pair of shorts and the type of socks you usually wear (socks are important, shorts are just to keep pant legs out of the way for the initial fit). Put the boots on and zip them up, THEN do the laces until they feel right and walk around the room a bit to make sure. Adjust as necessary and enjoy :) Was paid nothing for this review, just a happy customer!

These Boots are quite comfortable and nice looking, unfortunately the seams on the back started tearing pretty shortly after I got them and used them daily for work. I had to take them to a shoe repair place to get it fixed, and it held up for a while but now the seams are tearing in a different place but still in the back.

I love it, it’s excellent
