Let's see; I have been wearing Chippewa Super Loggers boots for years. Love them. I buy my size and BAM they fit. Every time. Comfortable too. I decided to try these Georgia Logger boots instead. For a change. Let me say this; they are far from the most comfortable boots, logger or otherwise, I have ever owned. Very tight to pull on and off. No give to them. Once on, they fit, shoe size-wise, but they (for myself anyway) seem to require a LONG break-in period. The first 3 days at work wearing these, I was in discomfort. My ankles/lower leg areas felt like I had a vice on each lower leg. Or, like I was wearing cement shoes, from about 8" down. I almost gave up. I learned that you cannot lace them up tight. It will hurt you throughout the day if you do. So, I started lacing them somewhat loosely. Not as painful like that BUT, now my socks were in a ball, under my feet, within the first 10 steps I took. I'm trying to find a happy medium here. It seems they have started to 'settle down' a little after wearing them all day for about 6 work days. But at this point, I don't feel like I could recommend them, as uncomfortable as they are. I'm giving them 3 STARS b/c they seem to be letting up a little. But if you want GREAT logger boots that fit, are comfortable and last, well, Chippewa Super Loggers.
