My only issue is that’s the Velcro straps wore out after a year now the boot fits loose which makes it so hard to wear. The return policy asks 1000 and 1 questions before they get to your warranty. I just don’t want to make time to look up purchase history amount blah blah blah. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I was hoping for *by on Reviewed in the United States May 12, 2024* I ordered these for work. They require met guards and safety toe. I find the soft met guard more comfortable and I really like the composite toe over steel especially in the winter, toes don't get as cold. They're heavy and feel like foot armor but are still comfortable to wear all day. If they last well I will buy them again. They were expensive, BUT to get all the options I wanted and needed for my working environment it was worth the money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had these for two weeks *by on Reviewed in the United States February 28, 2020* I bought these boots because a co worker had them for over a year and a half and they were still in really good condition. Being that I work in demolition and commercial diving my boots are beat on, exposed to sparks and lots of water. I usually go through boots in about 4 months. So far so good with these and they look cool so that’s just a bonus. Tight fit, not too heavy, broke in pretty quick as well. Not so easy to remove due to snug fit.
