ThorogoodGEN-Flex2 8” Side-Zip Wellington Pull On Work Boots for Men - Full-Grain Leather with Safety Toe, Storm Welt Construction, and Traction Outsole; EH Rated

I want to preface this review by saying, I'm very hard on boots and it is very difficult to find a comfortable pair that aren't lace up. I've had terrible luck buying pull on boots. The heel areas inside tend to tear up rather quickly before I can even wear the boots out. And, other boots I've tried don't tend to fit well after a while. All of this due in part, to the fact that I have a fused ankle. Other boots I've worn have hurt my feet, lost their fitment, and torn up within a half of a year. I've tried "Worx", "Redwing", along with some cheaper and more expensive brands with terrible luck. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, I'm gonna say these boots are fantastic. The fact that they have a zipper will hopefully prevent the inside material from ripping out. I think I'm still in the break-in period, but right out of the box? These boots feel and look great! Only recently have my toes been rubbing and wearing on the insole causing them to be a little sore. Took a couple weeks of extensive labor to "break down" the interior. I've added an extra insole and usually wear 2 pairs of socks. The outsole has stood up really well to molten iron spills and other iron foundry work. I'm extremely happy with them and would 100% buy them again. I normally wear a regular toe box boot, but ordered wide this time. Glad I did. I've considered buying another pair for recreation. I'll see how these finish breaking in first. So, yeah...I have special pediatric considerations, (fused ankle), I'm about as hard on a pair of boots as a guy can be, and I would buy another pair without thinking about it. They're easy to get off and on, and I've had good results walking through water puddles and wearing them in the rain. My feet stayed dry. I would tell anyone who has had terrible luck with buying boots to try these. I am pleasantly surprised. Sincerely, Husband of this account holder

Had these boots before and love them. Had a hard time finding them. Thankful for finding a pair.

I wear 8m in nearly any other boot. These fit small. Definitely built heavy duty tho. If u want lightweight than these are not for u. These are built for the trenches

I bought my last pair of these boots in 2018, and wore them for my last 2 years at my coal-fired power plant operations job (10,000-15,000 steps most shifts). Once I left there and went back to working as an electrician, I still got another year of wear out of them. My Ariat or Red Wing work boots are typically good for a year or so before they need to be replaced. I’ve been nothing but impressed by the durability of these boots.The one issue I’ve had is that the zipper tabs break off, and I have to replace them with tabs made out of steel wire or small key rings so that I can use the zippers. However, I’m happy enough with them that I can overlook that small defect.

These boots held up very well and were very comfortable the picture is after 2.5 years of heavy equipment maintenance and repair work. Nothing bad t9 say about these boots

kinda heavy, a pretty comfy wear, although it was a little bigger than what im used to a size 13 being, it only lasted 3 months before the whole seam on one of the toes of the boots came undone, as well as a lot of thei nside padding making part of the inside heel plastic stick out.

Wore boots for two weeks, started out great. Ordered a wide fit. MTP is sore and swollen now. I may need an extra extra wide toe box boot. Not sure how to make this boot work for me.

Ok, ok... Attempted homicide, my feet are still alive.They look great, but I spent a day walking in them and I'll never do that again. The steel toe hits just right across the top of my feet to cause much pain. I've got half a dozen pairs of this brand and these are definitely the worst.

Can not slip on like I expected. It requires a shoe horn to get my foot into the boot.
