They look good, but they don't feel good., November 23, 2007
I do not find these walking boots to be comfortable, as advertised. They look good, but they hurt my feet. I would like to return them, but I have worn them four or five times, thinking I would "break them in" and they would become comfortable. Hasn't worked so far.

Comfortable, but not as good as my first pair..., January 4, 2011
Men's Propet® CampWalker Waterproof Boots Hi (top)...
My first pair, was purchased about 2-3 years ago. These were very comfortable, from the start. That pair, was the BLACK ones (and are about 80% worn out, and I walk a lot). This time (1-1-2011), I got the BROWN colored ones, and these are less comfortable, but are OK (not as good as before?). Both are the same exact part number, 10X (3E) and has M3589, on the tong tag. I usually use a 10-EE. And the Website uses, 10XW for its description?
Trying to figure out what's the difference (besides color), I got out my tape measure. The older BLACK pair are 1/8 inches wider, in both the rubber sole and the shoe (at the widest point). Fix-wise, the BROWN pair feels like, they are slightly tighter. If I push my foot hard forward in the shoe, my big toe, doesn't touch the inside tip of the shoe (my older BLACK one's, I could). The BROWN ones seem slightly cheaper (sole and materials used).
Bottom line:
The BLACK one were very nice (exceed my expectations), BROWN, less so (TBD).
The BROWN pair are slightly more narrow and longer by about 1/8-in, or so. I expect them to brake-in (stretch-to-fit) - If so, I'll be happy...
BTW; ShoeBuy, doesn't answer their phones nor email, I tried many times...
Update (2-14-2011):
These ones rub my heal, the wrong way. Hopping they would brake-in, I tried to ignore it - Till I had a sore spot. I like these boots, so I wanted to try anything. I used a hair dryer on the offending area, that was rubbing my heal. Once I got it hot, I pushed the area outward. This seems to have helped 90%. TBD: as I'm a little sore there now.
