Only 1 month so far, but these are the most comfortable work shoe I have ever owned. A little heavy and a little warm, but a great feel, very soft leather upper, great ankle padding & SILENT. It's hard to believe steel toed. If they last (not all great reviews here), I'm very happy. I wish they were more 'shoe' look than 'boot' design for a professional/office look, but the comfort is worth it if you're stuck with steel toes. Try them out at Tractor Supply Company too (their best selling shoe).
