love them

by

I love these boots we run multiple brush fires in a month and with a quick wipe down great as an ems squad boot.

Decent, but not the best.

by

They look great, feel good standing still. Walking, the dorsal foot/ankle is not cut sharp enough so there's lots of space above the foot, and as you step forward the sides bulge out. Sole is great for grip and comfortable. Boot is very hot. But your feet DEFINATLY feel protected.

real good boot

by

the boot is perfect but the one thing i felt i was lied to is when i recieved my boots they did NOT have the 3M hi-viz piping they say they have on the boots. aside from that the boots work perfectly. if you are buying the boots for the hi-viz piping i would call the firestore prior to buying.

good solid boot

by

the boot is perfect for myself as a EMT. the only thing i didnt like was the fact that they say the boot has 3M Hi-viz piping on it and when i recieved my boots yesterday they DID NOT have the hi-viz piping on them thewy they clain to have. aside from that the boots looks and feels great

wheres the reflective

by

was disappointed that there was no reflective markings and that it took so long to get here

3M Hi-viz piping

by

Yes it appears that they have taken away the 3M Hi-viz piping. It is not on any that I have seen lately nor in current adds. The 3M Hi-viz piping on the two pair that I own and others in our department own is very visible. We spend lots of time in the middle of IH 35 so the visibility is great. The boots light up in the headlights. I will still buy new boots but I too am very disappointed that the boots no longer have the 3M Hi-viz piping. I have over 350 days of wear on each pair with only problems with the inside of the heal tearing which they supposed to have addressed in the new version.

Amazing boot!!!!

by

This is my third pair of these boots. my only dissapointment is that there is no Hi-Vis piping, i was hoping they would have atleast kept the heal patch. All around my Hell fires have been through hell and back, please excuse the pun... wildfires, vehicle accidents and hazmat incidents, they have survived them all. i go through a pair a year, only because i work so much i wear them every day for over 12 hours a day.

Fantastic Quality.

by

It's about time somebody put all these features together. Durable, well constructed, good looking boots with the safety features I need. I guess I got lucky becuase mine came with the reflective piping. The BBP resistance was the biggest factor for me becuase, Yes, I have had blood drip on my boots before. Shipping was fast, customer service was very helpful.

Consider a different boot to buy

by

This have been - by far the most uncomfortable boots I have ever owned. The break in period is extending for months. The area of the foot in contact with the back edge of the protective toe is continuously pinched on every step. The upper edge of the tongue is stuffed with a very hard material so that edge continuoisly chafes the shin. The boots are also quite heavy and very hot in warmer weather. It appears the materials they are made of provide no breathability. I measured my feet and bought the recommended size 9 only to find these run a half size small. This prompted a reorder and shipping delays. Although the price may be tempting ( do note these boots are made in China), and although I love the styling and front, adjustable zipper, I seriously recommend you consider another boot for all applications.

What?

by

Second pair of boots. First pair had the reflective markings. This pair didn't. But was advertised that it does. What's up with that?

Good & bad

by

I bought these boots for everyday station duty plus for WUI OP's. the boots are very lightweight, seem to be made to last & have a rugged aggressive self cleaning tread. I suggest ordering a size 1/2 bigger than you normally wear as Thorogoods seem to run smaller than most other boots. Unfortunately these boots do not fit my feet well in spots like around my ankle & heel & they are really tearing my feet up. I am going to try some different lacing styles & boot socks & try breaking them in more but if they continue to chafe & blister my feet I will have to get rid of them. Overall I would recommend these boots with a caution, some brands or types of boots will fit your feet perfectly, other brands will not.

Excellent allround boot

by

After many different boots over the years, Danner/Magnums/Bates etc I've finally found the perfect boot. I solely use these for EMS duties as we've a separate structural firefighting boot. I've been in through all sorts of muck in these and they still clean up perfect and take a good polish. Wore in quite nicely and kept me warm and dry in the coldest and wettest the Irish winter has to offer. They are warm in the hottest of summer days but I haven't come across a boot that isn't to be honest?

Very disappointed

by

Had the boots 2 years now after they were FINALLY delivered. Initially liked the boots. It's been almost 2 years and today the inner lining is pulling away from the inside walls of the boot. Can't say never but do not see myself purchasing another Thorogood product.

Definitely worth the price

by

I wear these every time I go to the station. They are perfect for field burning and everyday wear. At first they are pretty heavy, but once you get used to them they are very easy to walk in.

Versatile boot

by

These boots started out very snug. I wasn't sure they were even going to fit. After breaking them in, though, they fit like a glove. They're light enough for everyday hiking, sturdy enough that I trust them during chainsaw work, and have good traction. If I need to get somewhere in a hurry, they don't slow me down. I have no problem sprinting for short distances, climbing up trees or into the bed of my work truck, or hopping across narrow gullies. The lacing system is weird to me and takes a little work to get it tied as tightly as I prefer, and the zipper can be a little finicky. Overall a good and versatile boot. I can't think of a work or outdoors situation where I wouldn't trust these boots.

Fit great once I got rid of zipper

by

Bought for wildland fire. Originally ordered Firestalker elites but they were not available until February (9 months away). Felt broken in right away but were a little roomy in the heel area. Had trouble tightening with the zipper attached so I just removed the zipper attachment and laced normally....fit much better.
