They are mainly worn around the office or when my wife and I go out for the day. They have seen rain, snow and sub zero temps thus far.

Leather

Seidel Black Bison
Break-In
Durability

The leather was soft and supple from the first wear, but also seems very supportive. Much easier break in than say my Red Dog leather White’s boots or my Cypress Truman boots.

Satisfied with the Fit

Very satisfied with the fit. I’m a 7D in most boots and these are no exception. I’ve had zero hotspots during break in.

The construction of these seems to be great. They don’t feel as overbuilt as my White’s, but I also don’t feel like I’m wearing super thin tennis shoes. They have seen some wet weather and I’ve had zero issues with wet feet.

Sole & heel

I love this sole! This has to be my favorite sole of any of my boots. Solid underfoot with great traction and I like the Jade color.

I really like the color of this sole.

Final thoughts

Would Recommend
Good Value

I got these during the Black Friday sale. They are certainly worth the price I paid. I would feel good paying retail for these, however, you can always find their boots on sale. The boots certainly aren’t as overbuilt as a PNW boot, but they are tough enough for how use them. These won’t be my past pair of boots from Grant Stone and won’t be my last pair in bison leather.
