These boots are great. Obviously heavier than a normal shoe or boot but for steel toes the weight difference is not very noticeable. Changing from work to casual shoes the largest difference I notice is that casual shoes are more flexible. I love how they are not overly bulky, still tough and even somewhat stylish.I bought a half size larger than my casual shoe size and it's perfect. I wear toe rings and have not had any rubbing or crowding of my toes.It only took a few days to break them in and the process did not give me any blisters. I have been using them for 6 months in NGMs mines and expect to get at least 1 yr out of them, maybe more. I will be buying them again once I wear these down.
