Georgia Boot Men's Athens Work Boot - Durable Steel Toe, Waterproof & Comfortable for Construction, Farming & Outdoor Work

The boot was a real bargain. Well crafted, but scuffs a little too easily. Very comfortable, a bit warm on the foot. Haven’t really put the waterproofing to the test, but the amount of stitching and the layering pattern on the forefoot of the boot makes me skeptical. The ankles are thickly padded, so that’s extra comfort and ankle support, which is normally missing from pull on boots. Really great deal.Love the boot. Wish they made a mid size one I would buy it for looks aloneEdit: After two years, for some of us even less, the looks whore off on this boot and the real issues came to light. Let me first start off by saying not only do I clean my boots and keep them indoors, I also cure them with recommended work boot leather cream and also natural pouches used to suck moisture out of the boots I've used for long time. These boots are also in a rotation and worn only 2-3 times a weekWith that said, I suffered through the last year of this boot until this weekend. The first year was good to me, but quickly after that the boot came apart starting with the inside. I wear marino wool socks and live in Florida, I even bought new "Darn Tough" socks for these pair of boots which also was waste of money to regular off brand wool socks but thats another conversation. The heel went bad first then around the edges.After one year, 2-3 times a week use and during my 'light' days the sole began to wear out. I was amazed, even my very simple $69 Timberlands sole after 6 years still have more sole then this boot in 1 year. I bought this boot because from what I read and reviewed it does good in grass and concrete to an extent and is waterproof - and that is where I had my final break. The boot as of this weekend lost the last feature I needed which was the waterproof aspect. I occaisonally , depending on Florida weather , walk (even rarely, I work) in water about 3 inches high in grass, there are street drains with higher altitude of water. This weekend my entire boots (both sides) were eaten by 2 inches of water and left me soaked socks. So as of now these boots are useless to me for work and will be fighting against my 6 year old Tims for home use onlyI am not saying these are bad boots. But I am saying they are not work boots at all and they do not last as such. If I had these for "show boots" when I needed during some work days where all I do is walk around and talk maybe I would be happier , but for the price and the tagged usage as work boots I can't recommend them.Love themI should have ordered one size up from a 10 to 10/1/2 but that’s lifeGreat pair of boots. Quite expensive, but worth every penny. Fits like a glove and light weight. Holds the saying "you get what you pay for" to be true. Had them for a couple months now and choose to wear them over my sneakers almost every time. Enjoy!Boots were comfortable to start with. But after just a couple minutes this of use the sole started to separate at the heel. Then the lining inside the boot started to sag causing it to be very difficult to get the boots on. The lining eventually tore and now has a huge hole in it. They’re nearly impossible to be on now because of the lining and I’ve glued the sole on at the hell twice already. Poor quality - won’t buy again.So far been great, purchased to be new work boots but spent my first four days with them at a hospital with my wife having a baby. Standing for long periods, walking back and forth constantly and even a bit of running. Boots fit great from the start and kept my feet nice and comfortable the whole time. Been back to work with them for a few days and can add crawling and slogging through mud to the list fo activities these boots have performed and excelled at. Little bit of time with a brush and a water hose and they’re nice enough for church. Great boots.I love Georgia Boots. They make a great boot, whether it’s for style or getting dirty it’ll get the job done. This is the third pair of Georgia Boots I’ve owned, this is the second pair of these boots specifically I have had. The other pair lasted me 4.5 years. I will always recommend this brand to others and keep being a returning customer. They have all types to fit your needsThese boots are stylish and feel like they are well made, but they do fit small and narrow. So, I typically wear a 10 wide and these were too small, like I could wear them but after a bit they would get a little uncomfortable and were really hard to get off.Little right but good. Should work in maybe get a half size biggerGood design, as expected. For the sale price, this is very good deal!i love these boots best boots I bought ever
