I was in charge of the night remodel at my store, so they have a cool piece of history attached to them now. My wife and I like to go on adventures together and they have been great for that.
The leather was a tough break in, it took two months before I stopped getting blisters on the top of my feet, but after that, like butter, and boy can they take a beating most of my boots I take to work get scratches and nicks but not these and despite being a thick leather they were comfortable to wear in the hot and humid weather of Oklahoma.
I love the 55 arch ease last, most comfortable last I have ever worn. Comfortable on concrete floors for 8-10 hours days, great for walks and hiking.
For the most part great construction, not sure if I would buy a lace to toe again, when I would knee it would really dig into my toes. Love the soft toe.
I am not a fan of the V-bar tread, to slippery not enough grip on uneven terrain and the traction it does have wears away to quickly.
Over all I am really happy with the leather and how it is aging I worked really hard over the last 6 months and these boots have been with me every step of the way and they show every day off it. Whites will always be my top pick for a hard working comfortable pair of boots.
