Review on Lightweight 6-Inch Combat Boots For Men - Durable Military Tactical Boots For EDC, Outdoor Work And More By CQR by Gary Zielinski

Revainrating 4 out of 5

One year of use - my new review

While I have a gripe or two about these boots, I have to say they are by far the best thing I have ever put on my feet.I'm a correctional officer and walk a LOT! From rough concrete and asphalt to polished concrete and tile.First gripe- not slip resistant! The first time I hit a slick spot I almost ate it hard! Not the best if you are running to a fight where pepper spray has been used. You do get used to it after a while though.Second gripe- the tread has worn out after a year. Now I'm almost certainly being overly critical with this as I have already mentioned that I do put a lot of miles on my shoes. (1/4 of a mile from one end of my institution to the other. And I walk that atleast 2-4 times a day)What I love about them- wide toe box! Every other boot I have ever worn makes my feet feel like they are being squeezed to death from the sides.-soft sole. They feel like what I hear all the "minamalist" shoe people say those shoes feel like. I can feel the ground under my feet but not to the point that it's uncomfortable.-even after a year with the original insoles, my feet don't hurt after wearing them for 8-16 hrs a day. I have tried many other brands of boots and I have always had to put a new insole in them after a few months and always yanked them off the second I got home because my feet would be throbbing.All said and done, I will most likely buy these again and just deal with the slip-n-slide.

Pros
  • They are an excellent value for the price, offering premium quality at an affordable cost.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for camping trips
