I work in law enforcement and had foot surgery last spring. I have spent hundreds of dollars on shoes and boots for work since trying to find one that I can tollerate for more than 8 hours. This boot hands down is the best most comfortable one I have tried as of yet. I am so happy with it that I ordered a second pair. I have costum orthodics and they work in this boot. I spend hours on cement everyday and I love these boots I can't say enough great things about them. Not typically a boot I would buy for my profession but by far the most comfortable one I've had in 12 years. I will buy more of these boots
