I purchased these boots to wear in Afghanistan and they are supurb for this environment.

Leather used appears good, rubber/whatever in sole appears solid and does not squeak like some. However, the fit at the ankle is very tight (fine once it is on) so slipping your foot in is a chore. The effort required to push your foot into the boot requires considerable force on the pull loops. Unfortunately those loops are made of inferior leather (seems much thinner than rest of boot) and the stitching design securing the loop to the shaft of the boot is such that it effectively creates a 'tear strip' out of the loop. What I mean is the thing is so darn difficult to pull on (boot was not too small, plenty of room once my foot was in, almost too loose in fact) that I broke one of the pull loops after less than two months of use! Now they are useless as I can't even get that one on without the added leverage of the pull loop to get past the too tight ankle. Not sure who really makes these but very disappointed in the quality for something carrying the CAT name. Save your money and try something else. :-/

The boots i ordered came returned, someone has returned them to the store, and they they shipped them to us. they had scratches all over them that you couldnt rub off where they had been worn. When i called and told them about the boots, they said they couldnt exchange them for another pair, that they would send my money back when they got the boots. A week from christmas..knowning they where a christmas gift. i do not suggest this company to anyone.

My husband is a farmer and is very hard on his boots. So far this boot is holding up very well and are more comfortable than previous brands he has worn. Will buy again for sure!

Amazon shows one color of boot and you receive colors that haven't sold well. Called a sale ? Boots wear well but are not COLOR shown in ads. There were two color varieties shown under the same photo...neither one is the actual color of the shoe! No more Amazon for me......

My husband wears boots 24/7. Honestly, sometimes he is so tired when he comes home from a hard days work he just falls asleep in his chair boots and all. He works for a mining company and can really wear a pair of nice boots out in under 60-90 days. (What with all the rocks & wet sand he tromps in daily). Anyway Santa got these nice looking boots sent overnight for Xmas delivery this year! Boy was hubby happy grinning from ear to ear when he opened them. (For his other pair had just blown not one but 2 flat tires). Anyway, he could not wait to go to work with his new rides so he went in the day after Xmas just to swagger around with the guys.

They loved the look! My husbands ego went high. But sadly it was deflated hours later as he was starting to feel a rawness on his shins of all places. I mean come on, most boots either rub your ankles or your fat toes raw if indeed they are going to rub anything the wrong way don't they?

Even after trying everything imaginable, like wearing thicker socks etc the rawness got worse day after day and turned into pure weeping sores by day 5. My husband still has tenderness from these boots and is stumped that they would do this. Never has he had a pair of boots eat his shins off the bone, which is what happened!

Ordered these for my father for a Christmas gift... took almost 2 weeks to get them. When they finally got here they were scratched and way too wide for his feet. Sending them back.

I use these in rugged terrain. They are alright. Since they are new,they are a bit tough to slip on and off. I am looking forward to smoother operations once they are broken in.

I bought these boots for my husbands birthday. They arrived quickly and he loves the fit. They are true to size and good quality. He is normally hard to please and doesn't usually ask for anything, but this did the trick! Thanks Amazon.com for having this at such a good price!

Great Boots for work on the farm and really comfortable.They were delivered to the UK on the date promised and I would buy from Amazon again. The problem I have is that when I pull them off my socks come off too. I would welcome some constructive ideas,I thought about Talcom powder in my boots but I think it would be to messy.As I get older my feet seem to get further away ,so pulling socks back on is a pain in the butt. All the best Mick.
