Caterpillar Men's Corax Lace-Up Boot

Got these about 9 months ago and so far they have held up really well. I work in my shop and on job sites so they take some abuse. I find that they are comfortable and supportive without feeling heavy or clunky. The soles grip securely which I appreciate when I'm on my roof and my feet don't tire in these they way they have in other shoes. I came back to put them on my wish list so I can order quickly when I need the next pair...probably in about a year or two.

I think I like everything about this shoe. I loved the look initially and I bought it because of the great reviews... But I was skeptical of how it would fit (comfortably) and of how well it would hold up. After a month of wearing this shoe I can say with authority that these are the best work shoes I've ever bought. I am an electrician in San Francisco, I skateboard in these shoes from the train to wherever I'm working that day and then am on my feet until I skate back to the train 8 hours later. My job requires me to go up and down ladders and stairs I am constantly using foot pressure to bend conduit. I havnt noticed any discomfort yet after a month. The shoes are light and very grippy. I am very impressed with caterpillars craftmanship of these shoes.

I was nervous buying boots online having never tried them or seen them in person. I was happily surprised that these boots fit perfectly and are ridiculously comfortable after 10 hours of almost constant movement under strain. They seem to reduce fatigue in my legs compared to any of the boots that I've owned in the past and they don't irritate the back of your legs / ankles either. They are really durable and they still look great and I've been wearing them for 7+ months.I would and do recommend these boots to everyone, you wont find a better pair for the money.

I ordered these and the Caterpillar Men's Second Shift and Women's Lander to find a new pair of work boots. I usually buy men's boots because the right size men's boot has room for my arch support insert, where most women's boots don't.I returned the Second Shift (you can read my review of these fine boots if you want) because they will need breaking in and I wanted a pair that would be comfortable out of the box. I elected to keep the Lander's as my work boots--but I was so impressed by the comfort of these boots that I'm getting them in the Honey color. (So I won't have two pairs of dark brown boots--although the Nutmeg color is beautiful.)These boots are *astonishingly* comfortable, particularly under the heel. They were so comfortable I truly did not want to take them off. I would not recommend them for heavy construction work, but they are definitely substantial enough for chores / home projects / long hours on your feet / yard and garden work / barn work. I would DEFINITELY recommend these boots to anyone planning to do a lot of walking or standing.In the last few years I have had a couple of bouts of plantar fasciitis. I feel that the extra heel cushioning would be helpful in both preventing future problems and in coping with them should they occur.These shoes have the new "bumpy" laces, which are supposed to keep your shoes from coming untied--they certainly work. The only tiny problem with these shoes involves snugging the laces across the foot. I'm not sure if it's the laces, the metal lace channels or the way the side panels are sewn on, but you really can't snug the shoe across the ball of your foot, and it's a bit of a struggle to tighten it across your instep. (I thought these boots were too wide until I really tugged the laces tight.) As it turned out, just getting the laces right across my instep made the boots fit fine with a mid weight wool sock and my Spenco 2/3 orthotic.ABOUT THE SQUEAK: Do NOT freak out. The boots squeak like crazy for about 10 steps. I walked around the house and by the time I got back to my bedroom the squeak was gone. And even if it wasn't I'd keep these boots!Bottom Line: IF YOU WANT COMFORTABLE BOOTS--LOOK NO FURTHER!

I have them since before Christmas and I'm using them almost all the days to walk to work and back and I must admit that they saved my feet with all the snow that we are having now in the north east.They are also very comfortable because I use them to walk over 4 miles each day, they kept always moist out and my feet warm, also while shoveling the snow.The only "minus" that I can think about is that their soles are very loud if wet and walking on linoleum floors: people can hear me aisles away, but it isn't a defect for sure,

Corax boot craftsmanship is exceptionally amazing, boot is very well made and is a work boot/hike muti boot, I personally like the soles Grip and rubber pattern. The sides of the boot pretty much over lap the toe of boot after surcurly tied and adds front arch firmness, Im happy about the cats corax boot and would tell a friend to purchase.

Excellent

Comfort shoesI work with these shoesThey are very comfortable and lightweightBut, there are two things that bother meOne. If there is water on the floor, then it can be slipped with the shoesTwo, the soles of the shoes are constructed in such a way that they collect small objects that are on the floor
