I have worn these boots for two work shifts now. I am in indoor pool maintenance so it is a wet job and I am on my feet all shift. The air temp at my job is 82-84 degrees so my feet sweat a little but not as much as with the Baffin duck boots (they have leather on them), which just croaked after a year and a half. So I can wear cotton socks and not worry too much about wicking. I have also had Muck boots and they are too hot and not as comfortable for my line of work. These boots are very comfortable. I ordered the size I wear and they fit well with no break-in discomfort. I really like that they are pull-on/off. Also, I ordered the plaid ones that are on sale and they are way more adorable in person! I hope I have finally found the perfect work boot but I have to see how long they last.

UPDATE:three weeks in.
These boots are perfect. I have had NO discomfort at all. I was concerned about arch support because I have plantar fasciitis. I have worn them every shift since I got them and have walked my dogs through muddy forest trails wearing them. They withstood a small muriatic acid spill on my foot too. When I am done with them I put them on the boot warmer and they have not retained any bad odors yet. I will definitely purchase this boot again.

Update: First off, to expect a rubber boot to last a year or more is expecting a whole lot. I expect 6 months usually. Well,they lasted 6 months! I am amazed! Even my Muck boots couldn't take this kind of abuse without the sole filling with liquid from a crack or the boot getting bogged down with bacteria and odor.
I wore these Baffins to work every night and I wore them nearly every day through the winter months. They got thrown on the boot warmer every day too, which is hard on rubber boots. I think they took a lot of abuse with nightly work wear and daily hikes in the woods. Best "work" boots I ever purchased. Now, if I buy two pair-one for work and one for play-they should last a year right?
RIP little plaid Baffin's.
