My first pair I ever bought of these....were at a Sears store backin 2013 for $50. Thinking they were going to be a cheap work boot. Well that pair lasted 5 years before I lost them in a house fire. Bought the exact same pair in 2018 (in pictures), and they lasted damn near 5 years in everything from factory work, hiking boots, concrete, landscaping and overall...outside fun, activites and mainly WORK. The old pair still had life left, grip on the soles and 1 new pair of laces. Finally bought a new pair of these boots and they feel just like the old ones. I always coat my leather in Mink Oil rub...let that soak in for a couple days and then go back over with some Neatsfoot Oil. Makes them nice and malleable, along with a waterPROOF finish. Week 1 on these new boots and they already feel amazing. They ARE a bit more expensive these days, but amazing quality.
