Caterpillar メンズ セカンドシフト スチールトウ ワークブーツ, ダークブラウン, 12

Boots are relatively lightweight (comparing to some other work boots). Spent several shifts and two long motorcycle rides in them. So far I'm happy with how they feel and resist beating

It’s a boot with an OSHA-acceptable steel toe. If these boots fail to meet your expectations because they wear out faster than anticipated, you may want to look at how they’re being used rather than blaming the manufacturer. Some people simply require something built by NASA. You can Google them—they’re located in Huntsville, Alabama. Scientists specialize in indestructible things. This is the kind of boot that may make you rethink happy hour between 5 and 7 PM. Cute tags? No. Special colors? Also no. They are brown. Ankle support? Yes—if you have regular ankles. What counts as “regular” depends on you. Do they protect your foot? Yes. It’s a steel toe. Unless you’re planning on an airplane landing on your foot, these boots meet the standard requirement. The sole is comfortable, but make no mistake—this is a steel-toed boot. If you want to wear house shoes to work, a work-from-home job may be a better fit. Steel toes are not required for influencers. But if you need to pass through job-site security where steel toes are required, these boots are friends to your metatarsals. Let’s be honest—you care at least a little about what your coworkers say behind your back. Knockoff boots draw attention, just not the kind you want. Caterpillar boots can save you some insecurity. While everyone else is standing during lunch, you’ll be standing with them instead of hiding your feet under the table. Basic Amazon questions answered: Safe? Yes. Comfortable? Yes. Saving your self-esteem? Also yes. Five pm happy hour? Maybe but it won’t be because of your boots.

1 month of daily automotive shop use, what I can say so far: For the price I wasn't expecting too much. At one month of usage though I can say these boots are not the only boots to consider at any price, but they are definitely exceeding my expectations for the price. Pros: Real leather - looks good and smells good Cloth insole - removable! Lightweight - big boots but not too clunky Flexible - suprisingly forgiving for steel toes and thick soles. Not impossible to drive an unfamiliar manual car with these on Grippy - not slip-proof but definitely very resistant. Oil swipes right off after a few steps on clean ground Chunky soles - most likely pretty decent on dirt and dusty unfinished floors Cons: Leather seems "unfinished" on the exterior, if that is the right word. All I mean is that the leather is very soft and a bit fragile. I already have leather tearing away from the steel toe. I wish I had buffed the leather a bit before wearing them out, as that may have added a few months of life to them. If possible I will update the review for long term use, greater than 6 months. But so far the boots are holding up well and are very comfortable and practical.

Good

I work in my boots, 40+ hours a week. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly they broke in. No pain, and comfortable from day 1. The shank works, but feels a bit smaller than I would prefer, and you can really tell when you are on or off the shank. After a few months the front is scuffed up pretty good, so don’t buy this boot if you want something that is going to stay looking nice. I am concerned about weather resistance as each layer of weather proofing I put on seems to get scuffed off the front top quickly. Otherwise, at this price point, I can’t complain.
