text: Very nice shoe/boot. They only took about 2-3 hours to break them in. My only complaint is that I was expecting these too look and feel more like a hiking sneaker/shoe. They definitely look and feel more like a work boot with a hiking shoe twist instead of the other way around. The toe is very bull nosed instead of being tapered. That being said,  as far as on the job performance they are great, I just wish they were a little more versatile in the looks department so I could wear them outside of work without feeling like I have my work boots on.
