I have been buying these boots for 10 years now, Keep in mind I am rough on Boots. Farm, Motorcycle, a whole bunch of kneeling (Computer work) - I can buy a $300.00 set of Red Wings, and they last a year, Or I can buy Original SWAT and only spend $100.00 and they last a year of PRIMARY use. (After the year of being what I use for work, I use them for doing farm work with the livestock) These shoes are light weight, quick on Quick off, (zipper side) Shine up real nice, I have big feet (14W) and they are comfortable!
I use Beeswax as a foundation and then Liberty Black polish. They shine great and the beeswax makes them water proof.
I said goodbye to heavy clunky work boots, I'll take a pair that is the weight of a tennis shoe any day!
