text: so my big thing is after just 2 months they are falling apart. I only use these at work. They would be great for like 2 hiking trips then getting replaced. But it seems the glue at the toe of the shoe is letting loose and it just looks horrible. It might be defective, but I wouldn't risk it.<br /><br />Update:<br /><br />These boots really do wear quick. I had Amazon send me another pair and working 2 times a week, they wore a little slower, but compared to boots of my coworkers, that bought them before I did, they do not have as much wear. When these wear they do become very uncomfortable.
