After forty-two years in my 1969 82nd Airborne Corcoran Paratrooper jump boots it was time to get some new ones. Found the new ones to be very comfortable much more so than my old ones although a bit heavier. Love the new virbram soles and the construction seems of high quality. Sorry to say that I found them to be a 1/2 size to large even though I ordered the correct size so I had to return them for a size that fits. Shipping was very prompt and I am looking forward to getting the new ones that will fit. The new ones will be used for Veterans Honor Guard Parade and review and other related veterans functions.

I bought size 8 1/2 D and they fit me like my 9 timberlands. I followed someones advice about buying a half size smaller. So if you normally wear a 9 that isnt tight then you will be fine with an 8 1/2. An 8 might fit me even better but may not leave me room to add thicker socks and a odor eater. They definitely are comfy and warm. As soon as they camei went out and walked the dogs in the snow and ice and felt good.

The sizing is oddas far as length. It seems to fit almost a 1/4 bigger than regular boots. I usually wear a size 10 for boots and after reading these reviews I ordered a size 9.5 which is a hair too small. The boots do stretch a bit even after a week so it isn’’t too bad. I would recommend that you should order your regular size. As far as quality I haven’’t seen a loose stitch on them anywhere and they are comfortable. Very good quality leather too.

Ever since Dr.Martens sold out to China I figured it was about time that I found myself an american made leather steel toed boot. Lo and behold I found this one. I was a bit nervous reading the comments. High rating but with concerns.
I understand why. After patiently waiting to get my boots two days I didnt think I was going to make it as I was a dying to rip off my chinese docs and throw them in the bon fire
These boots are beautiful I had them laced up and mirror shined within 15 minutes.
The width is dead on but there is a good amount of play almost a half inch I would guess
Like the other guy wish I could of tried them on but regardless an extra pair of socks and these boots are great.

When I first got these they seemed a little large. I ordered the 9.5 EE. There is quite a bit of room in the toe and the boot seems to be more "roomy" than I expected. They feel a bit tight around the calf for someone who has to blouse their pants. We’’ll see what they’’re like after they really break in. I shined these to a mirror so anyone looking to spit-shine has found a great boot. Overall I do like these boots I wish I could have tried them on first to get the proper size.

Buying these boots at first is like Christmas. Shiny rugged and they break-in in a short period. I spit shined them and everything. The true test is what they can handle. I use them in a mechanics environment. always getting bumped oil and 99 of the time standing. the boots did their job for the last 3 months including climbing up a mountain. I only have 2 complaints about them. The insole is glued well to the boot making it scary not to rip out part of the boot in the process. The other comlaint is that the upper layer of sole fissures from the second layer in 2 months time.

Best pair of work boots I have ever owned. I buy a new pair every 18 months and am currently on my fourth pair. I work in a manufacturing environment and eventually ones boots do get torn apart.
There is a layer of sponge rubber in the sole that makes for very comfortable wearing. I have often had these boots on for more than 24 hours without any problems.
The “oversized” sole fits a little big and wide compared to the “Munson last” sole on the 1525 model on my third pair in 12 years but a thick pair of socks compensates well.
Wouldn’t buy any other boot for work.

Great boot. comfortable. I had to use another set of laces so it would be easier to slide the laces for faster donning.
