My workdays are 10-12 hrs days, walking on different surfaces: dirt, asphalt, and warehouse, production floors. I've been wearing Timberland (Helix) boots for the past 10+ years. They have always been a nice and cushioned boot, but are a little bit heavier shoe than I would like, so I decided to give this style a try. I've been wearing these boots for a week and from my experience, I can say that they are a more lightweight, lower-profile, mid-high shoe with ankle protection (which is what I was after). If you are looking for a construction worker boot, this is not likely the right fit. They are not leather and the bottom of the shoes do not look to be built for the constant shoe bending. This type of boot would be better suited for plant workers, where safety shoes are required. Realistically, I expect the life-span of my boots to be 1 year. I don't see any reason why these wouldn't hold up. So far, these boots have been comfortable and "cushiony" (no foot fatigue). The laces are much thinner than the heavy duty Helix ones, and I was a little unsure at first, but they've worked great and don't loosen like the others. I'm happy with my purchase.Edited: 2 years later and I can say that I'm still happy with my purchase! Changed from 4 stars to 5 stars.comfy but the material not to sure about this one month working in my construction siteI couldn’t find it at the store find it at amazon delivery was fast I wil buy againShoes fell apart after one useThe fit was perfect. The shoe was comfortable. I was excited, but I've only had these less than a week, and they've developed a tear in the nylon over the toe box. I'm pretty disappointed in that.This boot has come in and realy has me ready to buy another pair while they are on sale. However, I would pay full price if I had to. Way comfortable and light weight. Does not feel like a construction boot, but it definitely is.Comfortable.Soy mujer, compro medio número más grande para poder poner plantillas de gel, con o sin plantillas, me quedaron muy bien, tiene una horma muy ergonómica y el material hasta ahora se ve bien. Camino todo el día con ellas y son muy cómodas! Las volveré a comprar.Best safety shoe EVER! Very light. AAA111
