I bought these because I could get them in a wide size (I have flipper feet apparently), the price was right and I've had good experiences in the past with Wolverine hunting and work boots.  I've worn them several times and felt like they broke in fairly easily.  One issue I did have to address right away was replacing the foot bed inserts.  The ones that come with the boots are garbage.  This is not unique to these boots at all.  Most foot wear manufacturers put cheap foot beds in because they would drive up the price significantly if they didn't.  I bought a pair of superfeet orange footbeds and couldn't be happier.  If you go that route I recommend finding somewhere that sells them and get fitted for the right insert.  It makes a huge difference and is well worth whatever the incremental cost is.

I took these out last weekend for what I thought would be a fairly easy 4-5 mile hike.  It would up being anything but, including doing some junior mountaineering up some very steep and rocky sections of the Appalachian Trail that passes through northern New Jersey.  The boots provided excellent ankle support, traction and protection from the many, many rocks that comprise the trail on that section of the AT.

My only real complaints were that the boots got a little heavy after several hours and wanting to get the laces a little tighter at the top of the boot.  Other than that these look to be out performing their price tag.
