The fit is comfortably snug like I prefer for their intended role. The right boot is a tad tight but that’s because my right is 1/2 larger than the left.

Why did you choose this item?

Workplace Needs

I wanted a solid pair of boots at a reasonable price. I work in an extremely dirty environment and previous boots have rarely lasted more than a year.

How did you determine your size?

This gave me PAUSE. I basically read a ton of reviews at the JK web site,checked Reddit, Patina Project, etc. My PAUSE (obsessive research) worked pretty well. I did however find out a few weeks into the competition that my right foot is 1/2 size larger (while getting sized for hiking boots at the Limmer shop.) Still, I doubt that would have changed my decision for this pair.

Simple. Went online and ordered with expedited shipping. JK has this pretty dialed. Shipping and status updates were appreciated. I’ve since made a few other items from them.
