These are comfortable, not too heavy and felt great. I purchased these for my weekend urban exploration trips - one nail in my foot convinced me to buy these. It's cheaper than an emergency room visit! They fit a little wide (I need wide ski boots and regular work boots feel tight) - so the standard width worked great.  I loved these boots - until an outing today.

One side of the boot kept getting hung up on stuff. I looked at the boot, only to see that a section of the sole about 3" long was coming off the boot! Right where the sole wraps up the side of the boot, the glue (or whatever they used) did not hold. I had about 12 hours on the boots! If they were starting to fall apart this soon, I could not trust them to last any longer. Since Amazon has a 30 day return policy, I jumped on it. These went back. I already ordered a different make and model.

Not only was this a quality issue, it was a safety issue. I often climb through debris, up and down tight spaces, old stairs, etc. A section on my book that keeps catching and snagging on stuff is a danger.  Maybe I got a bad pair. I give them 3 stars for comfort and fit, and quality - except for the sole!
