PF686T - Teal Women's 6" steel toe, kevlar plate leather work boots

I bought these in May of 2022, and was very excited about them. They are definitely comfortable, and I haven’t had any issues with rubbing or pain, but they are badly deteriorating after about a year of wearing them outside daily.

I work in landscaping, so am often on my feet. They occasionally get wet from rain, and sometimes covered in soil.
The soles are very worn with almost no tread left, but they are a soft rubber, so I wondered if this would happen quickly.

Although I treated them multiple times with a leather protectant spray, the seam on the inner side of the boot, near the front where the toe bends, has completely come apart on one boot and the other is starting.

Directly where the toe bends the leather has completely cracked and now the inside of the boot (a thin lining of fabric) is exposed on both boots.

Very soon the leather will separate from the sole of the boot near the toe area.

Hopefully these boots are just not designed for regular outdoor wear, because I had high hopes for them!

i have these boots in two colours. love them they are the beat boot i have worn. it saddens me when i need to retire a pair. but excites ti get a new pair.

I love these! They do take a couple days to break in but they are worth it. I work traffic control for construction sites so they got dirty really fast but they still look really cool and I get a ton of compliments on them.

I bought these boots 3 years ago. I love them!! They have never leaked in the 3 years I've been wearing them! I drive tractor trailer in and around the GTA so I'm constantly in and out of the truck. The soles have worn out now and there's no more grip so I'm buying another pair tomorrow!! 1000% recommend 👌

Love these work boots especially the color.
Wish they would do more colors.
