I'm currently on a set that is way overdue for a replacement after a year. Did the whole foot scanner to get the custom inserts and everything. The inserts killed my feet after a few hours. Bared through it and after a month they broke in. Felt like a rock was placed in the middle for the longest time.

The exterior held up but the foam lining on the inside heel was done for after about 6 months. My biggest complaint is the laces. They are a hardened round cord that will not stay tied for shit. Double bow (knots) and I still have to redo them a few times a day.


Limited choices though as I really enjoy a sneaker-style low cut work boot
