Belleville 550 ST Steel Toe Work Boots - Hot Weather Ready Tactical Boot - Shock Absorbent Midsole & Military Footwear - Highly Cushioned Midsole - Full-Grain Cattlehide Leather

I love them. Great quality, comfortable boot. I've been using them for work and they've held up well for hard labor. They feel durable and strong, but not as limiting as other boots I've had. I slipped at work one day and I would have rolled my ankle really bad if I was wearing my old boots. These has enough support to keep me from getting injured.

Lasted 3 years 22 to 25 heavy use hiking full gear out of of service and heavy use farming has been a really good boot but at 3 years has split at soles to the sock but worked running full gear the downside is the dollar value when I entered the corps the rat boots was IN this is the better alt for the value take shoe size and is close to fit but takes a break in time running / walking feels great steel toe adds to that overall and steel feels like it doesn't weigh much at all for everyday or work wear it functions as a go to boot to wear light weightish but still steel toe helps with every day tasks on the farm.

Very light and comfortable!

These are the best boots I have ever owned. I read other reviews which told me to get a smaller size because they run a little big and I'm glad I did because they fit perfect. I usually wear a size 11 so I ordered a size 10.5. Other reviews said they are very heavy and in my opinion they are but you get use to them after a day or so plus it is a good work out lol. These are my every day boots now. I have owned them for about 3 weeks and after the first week people were already saying they look like they have been in combat which brings me to my next point, they break in very easily. For me they were broken in within a couple of days. So far I have ran through mud, snow, ice, dirt, mulch, water, ect and they have yet to disappoint me. I have felt no leaks or anything. I have washed them few times and after letting them sit and dry they do age quickly but I believe they will last a long while and if they only last a year I will be happy because I can I always order another pair considering they are very inexpensive compared to Danner's USMC boots (which are $300+). Which these are a great alternative to the Danner USMC boots because these are also made in the U.S.A. Pros: Combat Boot Water Resistant Steel Toe Great to Run In Heavy Weight Boot (Some may so that's a con but I enjoy it) Breaks in Quickly Great Price Made in the U.S.A. Great for All Climates (Not just Hot Weather) Cons: Ages Quickly (But I think they will last a long while) Warnings: Get a half-size smaller than what you normally wear, because these boots do run big (Example I usually wear a 11 so I ordered a 10.5)

I was looking for a new pair of boots for work and decided to look into combat boots again because of all the new products out in the last ten years and because there are a lot more choices that are made in America now. I read all of the reviews I could find about this boot and similar styles from belleville and ordered them a half size smaller than what I normally wear. I'm glad I did as the fit is perfect. These boots are very comfortable and took no break in time. They seem to be very well built and I think they will last a long time. I'm a sheet metal worker who works in a shop an I'm walking around on concrete and metal pieces all day an am always using my boots to move or support large pieces of metal for assembly. The only problem I've had with these boots is the factory insole that I had to replace as soon as I tried the boots on. The insole made the boots fit awkwardly and when I first tried them on I thought there was something wrong with the left boot as it felt smaller than the right. I remembered another review about these boots about the insoles and as soon as I replaced them the boots fit perfectly. I would highly recommend these to anyone looking for high quality made in America boots. You'll be hard pressed to find American made boots of this quality at a better price.

All around comfy and sturdy boot, even with a few manufacturing defects. Still love them

Amazing boots, just be aware of the shoe size. It is not US size even thou it says it is. I wear 10 but i ended up with 8.5 as a perfect fit.

Always liked USMC Combat boots perfect for running, hiking, treading water, and once because of the extra space for additional insole saved my foot from being broken and absorbed the shock
