These boots are amazing!  I have a lot of difficulty with my feet since I had four foot surgeries years ago.  I bought these boots in 2012 - an here in 2016, they are still amazing.  I cannot take any kind of shoe that is less than cushy but firmly supportive.  These boots are absolutely the best!  I use them all day long, seven days a week, and wear them for 12-15 hours a day.  I am on my feet all day for one of my jobs and I ride and train horses for my other job and these stand up to it all.  They are so amazingly comfortable!  So I bought a SECOND pair!  Just to have on hand.  They are really waterproof, stable, and keep my ankles from turning, twisting, and rolling off to the side.  Yet I've even worn them in a nice restaurant with long pants over them and no one has batted a fashion critical eye at me.  Awesome and I highly recommend them.  The inserts are soft, the sole is strong and the inserts can be replaced.  The last two eyelets on each side make it easy to finish off the top.  The laces do not come loose even with a single bow.  I usually pull the strings and cross them and use the upper hooks first, then cross them and use the second hooks last and tie off the boot in the lower position, rather than the top hooks.  I've never had a single problem with slipping or coming loose.  the tongue of the boot stays in place and they need very little break in.  I got the "wide" version and it gives my foot plenty of room.  As the boot wears in, there is more room.  The laces tighten up the boot as the weeks go so you'll have plenty of room for these.

Finally, someone designed the perfect work boot for my feet!  Yeah!

update:  just broke into my second pair but my first pair is still good!
