These shoes are rugged, well made, provide plenty of support, and one of them at least (the right one) is on-your-feet-all-day-long comfortable. The left one, however, never broke in. Apparently the steel toe is positioned incorrectly so the inside of the shoe puts too much pressure on my 4th toe. Over several weeks time it has caused soreness and pain to the point where I can't wear them anymore, and it's too late to return them now. I really wanted to like these shoes but it was money down the drain.
