NORTIV 8 Steel Toe Boots for Men Safety Industrial & Construction Military Work Boots Slip Resistant ASTM F2413-18, TROOPER-STL

I bought these boots for my husband and he’s really happy with them. They’re tough, well-made, and perfect for work or outdoor use. He says they’re super comfortable, even after wearing them all day. The grip is strong, and they feel very supportive. Definitely a great value for the price—I highly recommend them!

The shoe feels great and smells great, but has a thin, removable inner cushion about the same as the typical DrScholl insert. Because of it's closed design, a good rule of thumb would be to use a good powder to keep down moisture. There's good traction on the under sole, but it's still only around a quarter of an inch thick in the middle and closer to half an inch by the toes and heel. It's seems ready for a lot of punishment, but still be weary of stepping on nails. All in all, out seems like a good urban wear shoe that could last a few months, or over a year with general wear and tear.

The boots out of the box were very comfortable! They weren't too heavy and felt great for work.I ordered a size 11 so the fit was spot onWork in food delivery, moving cases with dolly and staking pallets, walking in sometimes slippery kitchens, and in wet conditionsSlip resistance it to an extent but I do feel it's better than just some sneakers some of the kitchens are just slipperyThe steel toe is very practical dropped a couple cases on them and held up wellResistance to water is great keeps my feet dry if walking through puddles or working in rain,I had the boots a little over 3 months and they did wear down the sole, the zipper on one side had a tooth out of alignment and the stitching came apart on the heelI needed work boots quick and these boots for the price and what they offer worked very wellI'd say a take away would be if they reinforced some of the weak points these boots would definitely be just as good if not better than some of the high end work boots.

As someone who for years has relied on boots like Bates or Belleville for my line of work I decided it was time for a change. After 9 years I got tired of spending 150+ for boots I knew I would replace due to inevitable wear and tear after a year since you can't easily repair leather after countless scuffs from ladder wells, non-skid, knee knockers, etc. These boots caught my eye for looking similar to a pair of Bates which cost well over two times more than what I paid for these (about $52). For the price and Amazon's amazing return policy I decided to give them a try. Note to others the sizing is what you would normally wear for casual/tennis shoes, NOT boot sizes, as in 10.5 is same as EU 44 or 10.8" foot length. These fit perfectly for me (10.5 wide), the top portion feels nice on the back of heels as well. The insoles could be better, me personally I usually opt to use my own anyway. The craftsmanship of the boot and look? Top tier. I've been wearing boots for almost 10 years y'all, and I've owned some pretty solid boots that before today I would suggest to my junior guys before anything else. Now? Honestly I'm tempted to not tell more people about these because I don't want the prices to skyrocket. They have a zipper on the side, which is in the perfect spot so you can tie these up, but then when you want to take off the boots immediately upon getting home all you have to do IS UNZIP and the boot slides off effortlessly. That's not to say the boots are loose on your feet, you can get them snug, but the ease of removing them is a huge plus when I'm running late. They clean easy, as with any leather boot buff blacken and buff some more. I have yet to find out if these are truly waterproof, since owning them I haven't been rained on (knock on wood), but when the time comes I'll try to remember to update. These aren't hot boots, my feet don't sweat any more than usual in these. Bottom line, I will be buying these from now on.

Very happy with them. So comfortable almost forgot I was wearing them.

The NORTIV 8 Steel Toe Boots started off as a comfortable and solid pair of work boots, but after just a few months, the durability issues started to show.🔹 The Good:✅ Comfortable Fit – Right out of the box, these boots felt great with solid arch support and a roomy toe box.✅ Steel Toe Protection – Provides good safety for construction and industrial work.✅ Slip-Resistant Sole – Good traction, even on slick surfaces.⚠️ The Bad:❌ Sole Durability Issues – After just a few months, the fabric around the sole started ripping apart, which is disappointing for work boots that should last longer.❌ Not Built for Heavy-Duty Use – If you're on your feet all day doing tough jobs, these might not hold up as expected.⚖️ Final Verdict:These boots are decent for light to moderate work, but if you need something long-lasting for tough job sites, they may not be the best investment. At this price point, I expected better durability. 3 stars for comfort and initial quality, but loses points for how quickly they started falling apart.

Fit well, great traction in amud and snow, and they kept my toes from being crushed when I dropped firewood on my feet. Amazing quality for a very good price. They have some weight to them took a bit to get used to compared to tennis shoes, but not so much that they weigh you down.
