I’ve worn this as a rugged city boot to work in a big tech setting, walked through the streets of Boston and New York City, hiked a few short trails, but mostly working in our yard clearing debris and fallen tree limbs resulting from several wet, wind, and sometimes snowy storms.
I found you can’t patina these too easily. Once it gets its look during the first few weeks, the leather bounces back from anything you throw at it. I guess that’s why it’s called resilient.
It’s the perfect amount of room for my toes.
For a sub-$200 boot, it’s great. I’ve had zero issues in terms of construction. It doesn’t have the finer details of higher end boots, but people don’t pay that close attention to what I’m wearing and neither do I.
It’s hard wearing. Barely looks like I’ve walked in them.
These are great value boots… not the most stylish, but you don’t look like you threw on a pair of work boots to go out in, either.
