Bought for Oilfield use where steel toes are mandatory. Very comfortable boot, lightweight and easy to pack for those overseas trips. Toe didn't get all banged up like redwings. Slip resistance is normal for this type of boot. More of a North Sea rigger boot. I'm pleased with the boots.
I got these for working in deeper mud and snow conditions. The steel toe absorbs a lot of cold and stays cold well after leaving the environment. This can be said for all steel toe boots though so not a con just a warning. The extra padding around the ankle seemed odd at first, but I slipped pretty badly and I think it may have saved an ankle injury! Have only used them 10-12 times but they seem rugged and long lasting. The leather should be treated with a spray (I don't recommend mink oil nor does the tag). Good buy glad I got them.
