WOLVERINE Men's Floorhand Waterproof Steeltoe 6" Work Boot

Happy with their longevity, and back for more
=== ADDITIONAL & NEW INFO, FROM 2021-10-15 ===The newest 3 pictures were added with this text today, as I have ordered & just received a new pair of these boots.I was able to wear my old pair of these boots through 3 full winters. It is nearly 3 years since I first purchased them to the DAY (2018-10-21 vs 2021-10-15) and I continue to be very pleased with their construction.These boots easily surpassed my expectations for longevity, and have without a single doubt become my favorite winter/work boot.If your shoes fall apart really fast because you drop stuff on your feet at work all the time, consider that may be the fault of your work environment, and not your boots.If your shoes fall apart after a season because the leather has dried and cracks apart, consider that you should be maintaining them. They have 100% leather uppers, being subjected to moisture, pressure, and friction a daily basis — they'll dry, crack, and wear out if you don't take at least SOME care of them!!I gave these boots what I would consider the bare minimum of upkeep. I brushed off street salt when there was so much that I could see it built up. I applied leather lotion at the beginning of winter-weather season, when I start wearing these every single day, and also at the end of winter-weather season, before they get put on my shoe rack for use on rainy days only.I've walked almost certainly well over a thousand miles in my old pair, and I'm certain I'll get that sort of longevity out of the new ones. Heck, the old boots' leather uppers are still pliable and watertight — the worn-out sole is the only reason I need new boots, and the soles of all shoes wear out, that's just a fact of life.I will say, fresh out of the box, I think the new boots' leather may be a bit dry. I'll be putting leather lotion on them and that should knock that problem out.Overall verdict: These are great boots. They're so great that if it wasn't for how hot the summers get where I am, I'd wear them for the summers, too. I'd absolutely buy them again — and in fact, I literally just did.=== ORIGINAL REVIEW TEXT, FROM 2021-03-09 ===I'm now past two years of owning these boots (bought them 2018-10-21, it is now 2021-03-09). I bought a half-size down from my size in athletic sneakers and they fit great. I've got feet that tend to be flat and end up aching without good arch support, so I replaced the insoles with some Dr. Scholl's extra-arch-support inserts. If you have flatter feet, I'd highly recommend doing the same.I'll say I don't work in a warehouse environment and don't drop heavy stuff on my feet literally every day, but they seem great to me, and have stood up to their fair share of occasional drops and the harsh weather treatment. Especially compared to the single-winter's lifespan I got out of other work boots I've bought before, which had their soles peel off, not even damage to the upper body construction of the boots.My commute to work includes a mile of walking at a minimum, depending on if I bum rides home from my buddies, frequently including more walking around the campus I work on. I also often stand at my desk at work.These have proven, with the arch-support insert I added anyway, to be quite comfortable, and the fact that I still wear them over two years later is a testament to a durable construction.A far sight more durable than some of the reviews I see where they somehow fall apart in short order. I don't know what sort of work you'd have to be doing in these to have them fail in a matter of months. Considering how I've mostly neglected regular care for these boots while I've had them, I can only describe these boots failing in a matter of months as a sign of far-harsher-than-average use, or a bad-luck-of-the-draw defective pair.If you don't tend to burn through shoes like your fallen branches and leaves at a campfire, I think you'll find these are wonderfully durable, especially for the price.I wear mine daily as soon as shorts weather ends, all winter long, as well as on particularly rainy days during the rest of the year.I've recently had to replace the laces since I tie my boots really tight and they were starting to wear out, but other than that, applying leather lotion twice a year, towards the end and beginning of winter, has kept these in great shape for me. That, and the occasional brushing off of the salt accumulation, when there's absolute tons of it caked on the sides of the boots.The treatment these boots get in the winter is pretty harsh considering they're leather, getting road and sidewalk salt on them, walking through snow and mush (since being able to do that was the whole point of buying waterproof slip resistant boots..), walking over sheets of ice, etc.They've done a great job of keeping my feet dry, and my rear off the ground.Assuming Wolverine hasn't completely changed how they're constructing these boots, and there aren't counterfeits of them floating around (you'd be surprised what some Amazon sellers and suppliers try to get away with), I'd buy these again with absolute confidence.They've now carried me through two full years. I paid $90 after tax for them back in 2018, and I'd pay that for them again if I were needing a new pair now. It looks like they're cheaper than that now, though, and I'd highly recommend them for the price.

Great Work/Winter Boot
Bought these boots to use since winter is on the way. They've been great so far in the rain and mud and haven't had any issues so far. The first week wearing them was a bit rough until they broke in, but now they fit good and are nice and comfortable. Has been great not having to worry about my feet getting wet in rainy days. They keep my feet pretty warm, which with them being waterproof was to be expected. They look good and seem built to last!

Practically ready to wear out of the box!!!
These steel toed boots were ready to wear right out of the box! I didn't have time to break them in, and I literally took them out of the box, put on some boot socks and went to work. On my feet for 12 hours each day, these fit like a glove, didn't bind and my feet felt great ALL Day! I am amazed that they didn't need to be worn in, and I suspect they'll just get better with each day I wear them. Highly recommended.

Good boots
So far these boots feel good, they not heavy which I like since I'm on my feet all day and moving around I would get tired if they where heavy. They are slip resistant had big spill at work and was able stay on my feet wearing them. So far for 2 weeks owning them I like but will update if I get anything else

Good for the money
These boots are very comfortable. They are slightly wider than others but is great for people like me with wider feet. Use them every day in a shop were they get abused. The toes are getting worn down pretty easily but other than that there great.

Great Boot
Bought these for my son and he loves them. He asked that I write a good review because they weren’t many reviews listed and said the boots are super comfortable and fit him well. He would definitely recommend them.

I have a ten year history with an old pair of Wolverine work boots
My only pair prevouslyowned have been through a lot considering I am a retired Army Chaplain and word combat boots for years. Retired and became Pastor of a Church on Hatteras Island, Hurricane Irene-Aug 2011 came and left 1 foot of muddy sea water throughout the building. I became the General Contractor, Chief Carpenter and Electrician while still covering my worship services (17 weeks in the local vounteer fire dept building. and making hospital calls as needed. My last set of combat boots bit the dust--well, actually the mud in early 2012, and since the I have done a lot of building and rewiring an old lake house. In sept 2021 we moved into a new house in a rapidly developing sub-division--my old boots and I began cleaning up after sub-contractors finished their part of the construction in agreement with the building manager on must of the houses, In the mud and in the sweat I got to keep all scrap that might be usable in building ashed on my property, once I get the permits. My new boots and I--(My old 10 year old buddy are falling apartand I retired them 6 Sept and began wearing my new Wolverines on 12 Sept. I pray to outlive this pair, but I will have me wife pass them on to her daughter's husband--he likes to play in mud and building houses also.

Starts out great
I’ve been wearing these boots for the last 5 months and everything was great. No complaints, until this last month..I’ve noticed my feet are hurting now, the pain shoots up my leg and sometimes hurts my back. I’ve always worked 9 hour shifts as a mechanic and am wearing the boots 11 hours daily during the week. I guess I’ll just have to look into some soles.

1st pair made me a repeat customer. Second pair were dissapointing.
I was very happy with my first pair of these boots; they lasted a full year of a labour intensive job. However, my second pair, that I received April 28th, have already seperated from the soles at the toe and the leather exterior to the toe is thin and essentially started to disintegrate after about a month... This was with leather treatment and cleaning regiment every 3 days of work.Might not be purchasing a 3rd pair.

Comfortable boots
These work boots are great! Super comfortable. You don’t feel the gravel stones, nails etc when walking. I bought these as my first ever pair of teel toe boots to help work on a construction for my broter in law. I just wanted to be secure and comfy and it did the job great.They are a little big but better to be than tight!They also look great and i didn’t want the tan colored ones because they get dirty too fast. Now i can keep them for any other projects down the road.

Fits a little larger
Nice looking boot. I can throw a little polish on the stuffs and they look new again. I fault myself for the fit as one cant expect much when ordering off the internet rather than trying on in a store. Going to wear two pairs of socks when at work which is a healthier option anyways. I will know a little more when they are broken in. I would consider buying them again.
