I don't have a lot of experience with work boots, unlike everyone else here I don't blow through shoes like crazy. So when it came time to purchase a new pair I didn't my research and found out that this was a very good pair of boots to take hiking and camping. I've only worn them around for a short while and I'll update this after a better test but so far I like them. I'm a 10.5 with a normal width, after doing my research I found that you should order them .5 size larger and one size wider. That worked perfectly for me and I highly encourage it for everyone else.
