It is possible that I have an underlying condition... not severe at all... but these boots, after wearing them the full day, leave my ankles sore. Its not a rubbing issue, its a structural issue in my own leg.The boots are sturdy and protect well. They are not too heavy. But I was hoping that these boots would not aggravate a mild case of sciatica. But given the issue that I am having with slight discomfort in my right leg, from the buttocks to inside the hamstring and then at the ankle, I can say that the support that these boots gave me did not help. After working in them all day, they might even aggravate the issue.For anyone else,I'm sure that the boots will work very well for you.
