I was very disappointed in these boots. They are not as comfortable as my previous Timberland Pro titanium toe and started falling apart at the seams connected to the sole in under 7 months of light use. By light use I mean walking to work from my car, use at work as an Engineer, and then back to the car and then home. So not a lot of climbing and hiking here. Granted they cost less, but come on, the upper is separating from the sole for crying out loud. I do not recommend these.
