text: Just got these boots about 3 Months ago. I run a heavy industrial machine shop so I'd say I'm giving them a good workout.<br /><br />1. The surface material is kind of weak around the steel toe. I've already torn the top on both sides.<br />2. The Metatarsal guards are weak at best. Just a small piece of plastic with no protection.<br />3. The rubber soles can't handle a whole lot of heat or grit. They've worn exponentially since I got them.<br />4. The Metatarsal guard squeaks like you wouldn't believe!! By far the most annoying thing ever!! Every time I step!<br />5. Good note though. They are exceptionally comfortable. They also support my ankles well.<br /><br />For a light duty work environment these might be fine. Unfortunately I know this now.
