I have used these boots for everything! Construction work, yard work, working on cars, the house, playing with the kids, walking in the snow, traveling, everything. They are a great well rounded boot. They are tough, but not too heavy.

Care Routine
Break-In

Very well. They had a very quick break in period. They felt comfortable out of the box, minus a slight squeeze on my small toes. After about a month that was gone. I tend to get relaxed with my care routine. I like to brush them or wipe them down with a damp rag every couple days to keep the work dust off of them. Sometimes they go a week or more before this happens. About every two weeks I like to give them some mink oil with a rag. Other than that I just wear them!

Satisfied with the Fit

Excellent. I don’t know if there is another last that would fit my feet better. I can wear them all day and be perfectly comfortable. I used to have plantars fasciitis pretty badly and struggled to stay on my feet all day. This last has helped me to get a lot of relief.

All perfect. I don’t think there are any flaws to this build.

I like them. I think they have a great look. For the work I do, mostly indoor concrete floors, I think they’re great. They offer good grip and have held up well for being worn everyday.

Final thoughts

Would Recommend
Good Value

Definitely would recommend. These are my first handmade engineer style boots and they are very worth the money.
