Not the same boot. Now smaller and uncomfortable. Orignial boot / design was awsome! Very comfortable. Easy on and off. Professional appearance. Original boot's stock numbers: 804-6026 (steel toe) and 834-6026. If you can find either of these boots in your size buy them; they are the good ones!  The give away is the sole. Orignial boot's heel sole lines run horizontal. New design runs at a slant. I would like to continue to purchase this product because Thorogood is an American company, but the new design is terrible. Sorry guys.  Now I will have to go with the default - RedBacks. Redbacks are made in Australia. Good boots, just prefer to support American companies whenever possible. Bring back the better boots! -  Robert  Seattle, WA
