I waited about a month to write this review. I use these boots every day to every other day to do outdoor work. I previously bought a different type of boot soley for side zippers to make them easy to put on...not a good way to make a purchasing decision for boots. They were uncomfortable and never "broke in". And the boot zippers kept comng down on their own.I'm really happy with this purchase. Price point is really good for what you get snd the fit was spot on for me. I like the boots for these reasons:Size - I normally buy size 8's in general. Lately, I feel like the size 8 skechers sneakers are running small. These boots were perfect in size 8 and I think its because the toebox is wider than I find with the sneakers...maybe because of the steel toe. I have a thin ankle but wider toes and the fit is spot on. Plenty of room for my toes without feeling big.Comfort - They are very comfortable, at least for a few hours which is what i've been wearing them for. They were this way right out of the box. I wish they had a little more cushion but that's just preference. Still comfortable.Easy to Put On/Take Off - the lacing configuration makes them easy to put on. They generally keep their tightness in the bottom laces and allow for custom tightening with the two sets of tabs at the top. There's enough room to get my foot in and out when the tab lacing is undone so it's quick.Durability - i haven't had these long enough to truly speak on durability. However, they look well-made and durable. The only thing i'd consider less durable are the laces. They are thinner than i'd like to see in a tab-top boot.Price - i don't think you can find a better built voot for this price point. I did my research.One more comment on color. The olive color appears more brown online than in person. They look more like olive to me in person ...more green to them which i prefer.
