My husband loves them, and he is very difficult to please!  He walks all day doing safety inspections on surface mines, and ends the day with no complaints, he says they are as confortable as tennis shoes.  The zipper was a most when i was looking for them...I always try to give him gifts that make his day/life easier. The shipping was fast, I ordered regular usps and they arrived UPS second day, yeah!  Any man that loves confortable, nice looking boots will love this ones. They are true to size ( I ordered 9.5 EW) and fitted perfectly confortable. I think I scored xtra points with this!!!!
