FREE SOLDIER Men's Tactical Boots 8 Inches Lightweight Combat Boots Durable Suede Leather Military Work Boot Desert Boot

I am a UPS driver. I walk 20,000 to 25,000 steps per day. It is really hard to find shoes that can survive the abuse my job puts on them. I recently decided to switch from normal walking shoes to boots because I have bad ankles.I am always scared to spend too much on shoes, because I have never found any shoe, at any price, that lasted more than six months. The last pair of boots I had were twice the price of these ones, and the entire sole peeled off after 3 weeks, but these had good reviews, and were very reasonably priced, so I decided to give them a go. (The dark brown ones).Straight out of the box they were probably the most comfortable pair of boots I have ever owned. I thought I was going to have to break them in for a while, but that was no problem. Also, the ankle support is superb.After a month, or two, each shoe started to show a small gap between the sole and the shoe near the ball of my foot. But I put a tiny bit of shoe glue in there, and it hasn't been a problem again.Right now, I have been wearing them every day for 3 months (or at least 1.3 Million steps), and they seem like they will probably make it another 3, at least. That's probably about as much as you can reasonably ask for boots that were under $70.One other note: they are supposed to be waterproof, but I haven't really had a chance to test that out here through the bone-dry, Salt Lake City summer months. But if they last into the winter, I will give an update on that.Update: The total durability wound up being about 7-8 months, or about 3 million steps. And, even at seven months they were still waterproof. They could have probably gone another month even, but the soles were getting pretty thin, and I decided to get a new pair for winter.I ended up getting the dark black this time, which seems to hold up better in terms of appearance. They were not as comfortable, out of the box, as the dark brown ones were, but still pretty comfortable, and broke in quickly. Also, whereas the brown ones seemed very breathable, and cool; the black ones seem to be much warmer, so they work out better for the cold weather, and snow.

I bought my first pair (on right)of theses 13 months ago. I have worn the living crap out of them. In the snow, mud, dirt, rocks, and through shallow creeks. My boots usually don't make it 6-8 months before the sole start separating or seams start coming apart, but these, wow just wow! They are very much still intact. The soles are getting thin, but they are still wearable. They're comfortable, light weight, extremely durable. I liked them so much I bought 2 more pair, because it seems like when I find a really good product, they discontinue making it. I've had tac boots that cost 3 times as much that didn't last half as long. Update : Just got back from a public land elk hunting trip. The Irish setter boots I took out there to hunt in started coming apart after 30 some miles of hiking in 2 days. I wore these the rest of the trip and put about 65 miles on them in the next 6 days. They held up perfectly. Although the foot bed wasn't as comfortable as the setters, they did the job. Thankful it never got super cold though as these are not insulated.

They are pretty, they are strong, comfortable, resistant. I bought them as a gift for my husband and we really liked them. Their price is good.

This is a really decent pair of lightweight boots. Well made and true to size or maybe a tiny bit on the large size. All day comfort right out of the box. I put mine on and wore them around the house for a couple of hours and then took a five mile walk with the dog and no sore or hot spots . Pretty light on the foot for an eight inch boot and roomy enough to wear with some thicker socks. My first walk in these was in 40 degree temps and my feet stayed warm in light socks. Sole provided decent traction and the boots came with decent quality shoelaces which seem to be the exception these days. I would recommend and buy again.

I have worn out three Pairs of boots. these are my daily wear and i love em. They are comfortable. I tend to wear out the laces before the rest of the Boots. They Are great bang for your Buck

The media could not be loaded. I opened the box, put these boots on, immediately walked out the door and put 4 miles down on uneven sandy terrain, my feet got a little warm, but not even remotely worth complaining about. They're as comfortable the day you open the box and a well broken in boot from some of the much more expensive brand.I wear a size 12 in most shoes and boots, the size 12 of this boot have the perfect amount of room for my foot and toes. Wide enough toe box that my foot doesn't touch the sides, and my toes don't get crunched. I've had mine a little less than a month at the time of the review and have logged well over 20 miles so far. I recommended these to my friends and family and will certainly buy another pair when the time comes.Also the waterproofing is legit and thorough

I really like these boots. Very comfortable after a couple months I only have 1 complaint and that is the sole is separating already and I’m pretty bummed about that because otherwise I recommend these boots 100%. They fit true to size with room for thick socks. The soles are more of a foam , not rubber. I get compliments on them all time

Can be a little daunting ordering clothes online., never mind boots that you wear all day everyday!! But this lightweight boot, with durable exterior and traction for outdoor work ranks high with the small business owner.
