Herman Survivors Men's Oakridge 6" Steel Toe Work Boots

These are your typical heavy-duty work boots. They would work great in a lot of different professions. My husband is a mechanic and loves these boots. He has been wearing them almost every day for about two months. These boots are true to size. They fit my husband perfectly. The inside soles are thick and keep his feet comfortable as he wears these boots throughout the day. The backside of the boot has a padded fabric for extra comfort. My husband wished the tongue had the same padding on the back of it because it was a little uncomfortable at first. The shoelaces are of good quality. They are long enough for easy tying, but not so long that the laces hang down the sides. They are the perfect length. My husband also wears these boots while doing yard work. The outsoles are very thick and made from rubber so his feet are well protected. They are also steel toe, providing even more protection to his feet. The steel toe isn't restricting, he is still able to bend on his toes without them hurting. The tread is thin, but that is nice if my husband is working out in the mud, he doesn't have to worry about a lot of mud getting stuck in the treads. The leather and outsoles are easy to wipe clean, however, the oil that my husband steps in has definitely stained the boots. The white outsoles make the boots look dirty faster than if it was a darker color. Straight out of the box these boots had a very strong chemical smell, but after a week or so the smell disappeared.

Great boots at a great price. I've had these for about a week now and they get softer each time I wear them. The body of the boot is regular boot leather. But, the tongue leather is incredibly soft and flexible. Like a fine pair of leather gloves. Much more comfortable to wear than some of the others I've used. They're fairly lightweight for work boots, easy to clean and super comfortable. I highly recommend them!
