I gave these as a gift. Here's the recipient's comments: I have worn the boots approx 4 times where I have actually donesome walking for a significant amount of time. They do have to be broken in.The first time I wore them the steel toes were uncomfortable but afterthe 3rd time wearing them, the toes were much more comfortable. Thefirst time I actually wore them all day to work and did a lot ofwalking, my one heel almost developed a blister. Thisalso passed after the initial discomfort. Right now, I'm not lacingthem all the way up until they are broken in a bit more....the tops arestiff when laced and irritate my ankles. That will pass. In short,they are a lot more comfortable now and they are very warm. Also,they are very well made -- should last a long, long time. Havereceived comments from several of the guys here at work about theirlooks and where I got them. I couldn't be more pleased with them --It was a great gift...June 2013: Saw the recipient. Asked about the boots. "Wonderful! Worn every day; hardly look worn."
