Use & wear

Physical Work

Started wearing them very comfortable almost no break in compared to the 64 brown. Very soft. Smells great.

Leather

Durability

So far only been wearing for 2 full weeks at work. I am a carpenter. The leather is very fragile. I need to be careful what it rubs up on.

Satisfied with the Fit

The 55 last is perfect for my foot. I would many consider a Munson last next time. My builder pros have a composite toe cap and don’t feel as narrow at the toes

Finishing

The stitching was perfect. This is my third pair of nicks and so far the best finished. The sole is not stitch through. I did not know when I ordered. I don’t think is a big deal. The biggest problem is that the boots are two different colors. I can’t stop seeing it driving me nuts.

Sole & heel

Vibram 100 Montagna Lug Full Sole Honey11 days, current sole
Comfort

Much softer than the black v100. Might wear out fast.

Logger ModerateWorn for 11 days, current heel
Design

I think it’s more of a personal choice I don’t like the look of a regular heal stack.

Final thoughts

Would Recommend

The boot is the most comfortable one that I have gotten out of the box the break in period is much easier. I am bothered by the different colors.
