    These bad boys have served me through snow and rain and mud in anywhere from an office situation to working outdoors. While the souls are not great for outdoor traction, they are incredibly easy to clean off before coming into the house

    Safari Waxed Roughout
    Care Routine
    Break-In
    Durability

    The Safari waxed Roughout had held up to all i have thrown at it. It was not as tough a break-in as I thought it may be, I brushed them every few days and occasionally put on some Bick 4 when they looked thirsty.

    Fit

    Unknown Last: Size not specifiedUS Men's Brannock: 11.5E
    Toe Box
    Ball Feels Right
    Satisfied with the Fit
    Toes Too Roomy
    Too Much Volume

    I would say they size about the same as a pair of iron Rangers, they do have a very roomy last with plenty of wiggles space for your toes.

    Craftsmanship

    Thursday General Purpose Chelsea

    I think Thursday did a great job with the design and construction of these boots and the finishing was top notch. I would gladly test out any of their boots if they were looking for somebody.

    Sole & heel

    Traction

    It is a great sole for ease of cleaning, but I am generally not a huge fan of the wedge sole due to lack of traction

    Final thoughts

    Would Recommend
    Good Value

    I would highly recommend these to anyone that is looking for a well-made boot that you can work hard in and still be able to clean up for a Sunday morning service
