Bought the brown pair 3 yrs before and worn those out, got the black ones and they fit just as snug and well as before.

I bought these only yesterday , so I can’t speak for longevity. However, I have never been able to wear safet boots without pain. I have wide toes and narrow heels. These boots are wide enough, and with the laces laced as I was shown, No heel slippage . They are very comfortable.

These safety shoes are so comfortable it's like walking on a cloud. Great for workers standing on their feet all day.

I usually buy expensive waterproof boots but decided to give these a try. $179 plus tax is just over half of what I normally spend and figured if I get a year out of them it's fair. Sadly 3 months in and the stitching has worn out in an unusual location. All the stitching that holds the leather to the rubber heel has worn away and the back of the boot is falling apart . I take good care of these boots and mink oil them monthly. Had high hopes for these boots after the first two months but now I am praying they last the other 9 months of the year.

Maybe I got a defective boot... who knows. I definitely wouldn't call these boots heavy duty though.

I guess you really do get what you pay for.

Love these boots comfortable and fits true to size. Second pair that i bought. Only sad thing with these boots are they are not made in Italy no more but, in China.
