Skechers Men's New Wascana-Benen Military and Tactical Boot

So far I'm pretty impressed with this boot. It is extremely comfortable, nice fitting, almost feeling like I'm wearing tennis shoes. They're non-slip, and professional looking footwear. If you're in the security or law enforcement field, give these a try. Top notch for the price!!

Honestly, I don’t buy Skechers for their looks, I buy them for comfort. However, these are the first Skechers boots that I think look really great. And not only do they look great, but they are super comfortable too. This is the first pair of shoes that I’ve bought online as I always prefer to try them on in store first. But after having a difficult time finding a good pair of boots in stores around my area, I decided to take a chance on these boots when I saw them on Amazon, and I am so glad that I did.I work for Dish Network as a residential installation Technicinan, so I need a work boot that’s durable, comfortable to wear 10-12 hours a day, resilient to all weather conditions, slip resistant, and safe for climbing up and down and working from ladders all day. These boots definitely tic all of those boxes. With the relaxed fit and light weight, my feet feel really good by the end of the day. I have arthritis in both my big toes, most other boots I’ve worn usually make work painful by the end of the day, but so far these boots have really kept me nearly pain free by the end of the day. They also allow a good range of motion, which is important in my line of work as I need to get into some really awkward and uncomfortable positions when pulling cable through a dank crawl space or tight attic space. There’s even plenty of room for thicker winter socks on those extra cold days without losing any comfort. One downside of the relaxed fit that some might not like is the fact that there’s not a huge amount of ankle support. For me I prefer the wider range of motion in my ankles as opposed to a tighter more supportive feel around my ankles. And best of all, there’s really no break-in period needed. They were comfortable and ready to wear for work right from the get-go.The one item that I can’t fully comment on just yet is the durability of these boots as I haven’t worn them long enough to really say how durable they are. However, I’ve always found Skechers to last me quite a long time before needing replaced, and I expect these boots to have the same quality materials as all of my past Skechers boots have had. I have not had a chance to fully submerge them in a puddle of water either, but I have worn them in the rain and snow, and they have kept my feet warm and dry. I am extremely happy with these boots, and so far I would buy a 2nd pair.Pros:They look greatSize is true to fitRelaxed fit for all day comfortPlenty of room for thick winter socksSlip resistant solesWater resistantGood range of motion in ankles and feetGreat for working on laddersCons: Not much ankle support

These are comfortable and affordable. If you quickly need cheap and comfortable work boots these will work. However the fake leather lining wears/peels off quick (within 6 months). I still wore them for over a year and I used sharpie to cover the peeled places.

I have been using these as a first responder for about a year now. They are starting to show wear like any other brand of work boot would in that same amount of time (scuffs and scratches and creases). They are also very comfortable and didn't require too much "breaking in." Putting them on quickly with no zipper was an issue, so I did replace the laces with a boa system to increase ease of use.

I just got these about a month ago, cannot speak on long-term durability, but, they fit perfectly theminute they arrived, are super-padded and comfortable, require no break-in time at all, really, as opposedto your average pair of Doc Marten 1460s, and they are definitely waterproof and excellent winter orany-season boots. Very cool tactical look, but not overly trendy. The lace system is fine, the metal guidecatchhooks at the top take some practice but they are decent once you get the hang of them. I got these for an absurdly reasonable price on here, and considering the quality and comfort and waterproofing, I am not complaining. I really needed more waterproof boots for the winter in NY here, and these fit the bill.They seem like they'll last a few years, but I wouldn't push it past that. The average pair of Timberlandsare like $150 these days, and may or may not last a few years, so these are fantastic if you don'twant to shell out that much. They also look cool for just going out, to the bar, a date, whatever,and don't really look like ugly workboots, etc, given the tactical finish and design. These maybe the most comfortable pair of ANY shoes I've ever purchased, requiring no break-in time,which is quite rare. I was forced to buy these online because DSW Shoes in my nabe had nothinglike these, and never has smaller sizes (or rarely) in stock.

I work for Allied Universal. I bought these because it's a requirement, but unfortunately I do a Helius detex Patrol of the outer perimeter of The LasPalmas movie studios in Hollywood. This perimeter is about 2 miles all the way around plus the adjacent parking structure, so it's like 2000 steps all the way around. I have to conduct a minimum of two patrols per hour. By the end of my 8 1/2 hour shift, my feet feel like they are on hot coals these shoes make it worse, not better.

These lasted about 3 months before starting to break down.At first they were super comfortable, but after only 3 months the leather started tearing, 4 months and a bubble formed on the bottom that clicked when I walked, 5 months and my socks started getting wet in the rain.I have it 3 stars.. 1 for comfort, 1 for style, and 1 at least lasting 5 months.
