I love the fit and feel of these boots. I bought them for work. They are very light,so liight in fact they really feel more like tennis shoes. But unfortuneatly,they don't hold up in my work enviroment. I use a forklift and drive a truck. The side zipper on these boots always gave out after about 6 months. The term "get what you pay for" really rings true on boots. Cheap boots are impossible to get fixed. You have to toss them out when they break down. In my case,I either have to buy a pair like these every year,or buy more expensive boots that last much longer. I've chosen the latter.
