Light factory work
These boots were tested by a factory worker that works 12 hour days and is required to walk around 7 miles or so per day. The first day of wearing these boots had the tops of the feet inflamed and red. There should be more padding in the tongue area of these boots to produce a better fit on the top. They took a longer break in period than expected.
The Bottom Line:
These boots are fairly sturdy, and will probably last a good while, however after putting it through several days in a fast paced, rough environment they were found to be rather uncomfortable and caused some redness and soreness. If comfort is important to you, pass these up. If you don't have to do a lot of walking and be on your feet for 12 hours every day, these may be ok for you. They are no better than any pair of boots you can find in any retail store.
