I've been wearing wolverine boot no. W02563 every day for about a month now.  This is my first pair of this model. Mostly clean daily wear, no dirty work yet.  Other boots worn in recent years are wolverine W04242 "compressor 6", georgiaboot "giant", montrail goretex backpacker boot.

I wanted a goretex waterproof boot for florida summer rain storms.  The online pictures of this boot looked like a style I would like.  I am very pleased with the boots so far.  They are a good looking boot, classic in style, clean and uncomplicated.  Compared to the other boots I mentioned, the "out of the box" comfort is as follows.  Wolverine "compressor", georgia boot "giant", then both this new wolverine style and the montrail backpacker boots tied for third.  This is not a criticism, I very much like all of these boots.  But the first two boots are much more comfortable in the "brand new" state.  These new boots are much stiffer, but I expect them to be fine after a few months of breaking in.  They have durashock insoles, but I can't say they are a soft feel.  I may look into replacing the insoles for a better cushion.  The construction is very good, no leather blemishes or stitching faults.

I would rate them five stars, but I reserve that for the wolverine compressor.  I probably would have purchased another pair of the compressor style, but those are not goretex waterproof.  I ordered these through amazon and received the boots within a very few days, no problems.  I have purchased a few different products in the past few years through amazon and have had no negative issues so far.
