Trail Blazer Lace Up Waterproof Boot

Love the look and style of the boot. But. Perhaps they run a bit over size? Could fit 2 fingers behind the heel in my left boot. The sole felt a bit thin after wearing Keen insulated hiking boots. I added jel pads which seemed to help both problems above, though my left boot is still a bit loose . This causes my left foot to be sore at times. Not a huge amount of insulation in them...even with thick socks on my feet they felt a bit cold on a cold day. My left foot is a bit smaller than my right. Wonder if I should return for a half size smaller. Also, though the laces look nice, they are light and time-consuming to get real snug. Maybe boot laces would be better? I like the roomy toe area. But feel the heel is too loose. I need to be able to hike as well as ride in these, as I do trail maintenance in a National Forests using my mule, and have to be in them all day. Still in the 30 day trial period. And giving them a chance to conform to my feet. I want them to work so badly!

Such a good looking boot!

These boots are well made and look just as nice in person as they do in photos. The fit is good, I do think they were made more for a wide foot but i don’t mind the little extra room. Overall there great boot!

I needed a new pair of boots after my Ariats disgracefully committed seppuku. I took a good long time to find a pair that fit my expectations:

Comfortable, well lasting, waterproof, good ankle support, and no zippers. Why does every pair of nice shoes have zippers?

These meet all of those criteria. (Except maybe long lasting, I haven’t had them long enough to know. I have it on good authority that I shouldn’t have any problems though, and they definitely look/feel sturdy)

Nice materials, comfortable lining, and I love the easy laces. They’re wide enough for my feet, and don’t look wonky.

They aren’t as pretty as a nice pair of paddock boots, but that’s definitely not my highest priority.

Note:

I always buy a size down in “outside people shoes,” 9 instead of 10. In that way, they run true to size. If you’re expecting “normal people shoes,” don’t. Go a size down, the industry standard for outdoor shoes is about one size smaller than average, across the board.

What a tough boot and WaterPoof benefits without that "sweaty" inside boot feeling. And, a TREAD designed to include in your winter activities...es, even, shoveling snow!!! What a GREAT PRICE! Thanks Kerrits and Happy New Year!!! Bev G

These are the most comfortable boots that I have ever worn and I have had many . Waterproof great for riding in and doing barn chores a true all around boot.I wear a size 6.5 M and they fit perfectly.
