To begin with these are heavy boots. I like them. These are daily wear for me. My going places boots. I have a different pair of Timberlands for work partly due to some of the things I walk through I would not want chance tracking into my home or yours. That said they are very comfortable,Good fitting,Waterproof (I tried them out),Very well made,And just the kind of boots made for stomping around in every day. The toe and heal protectors do the job and keep them looking presentable for going places like church.
