I was a bit hesitant about buying these because of reviews stating they're uncomfortable and slow to break in. After looking at some other brands in this price range, I decided to take a chance on these.First impression upon opening the box and seeing them in person was that they are very well made boots. The stitching is consistent and the leather looks high quality.My first test run was at the local park where I walk my dog regularly. These Caterpillar Second Shift Workboots needed zero break-in on my feet. I wear a size 10.5, medium width and ordered as such. They fit like they were custom made for my feet!Last weekend, I visited my grandsons and family. This is a 6 hour drive and my new caterpillars handled my cars pedals nicely. Once there, we went to a skate park, ran, played and did all kinds of gpa stuff. These boots were comfortable to wear all day (not just 2nd shift).My feet tend to get hot in most types of footwear but these seem to be well ventilated which provides all day comfort.In summary, I'm 100 satisfied with these work boots and would definitely recommend them!
