Title: Excellent quality and very comfortable. Fashionable looking boots!
Review: These boots are very comfortable. 2 day shipping! They are well made and look great too. I have tried many brands and these are by far the best bang for your buck. I had to order the wide in these because I have wide feet and they are plenty wide enough. I like the quick release lace notches at the top because they make it really easy to lace them to the correct tightness and easy to take on and off. They have awesome tread on the bottom and are non-slip on all terrain. They are so comfortable out of the box that they don't need different insoles; I usually put running insoles in all my boots/shoes. These are my 2nd pair of Nortiv 8 boots. I liked my Black Nortiv 8 tactical boots so much, I had to have these stylish hiking boots for casual wear. The black Nortiv 8 tactical boots have held up very well over the last 6 years and I still have them. These style boots look great and are for everyday wear, work, or hiking. I love them and I highly recommend these boots! You can't beat the price on them either!

Title: WOW
Review: I did not expect much from these but I was wrong! These are very comfortable. I wanted 4E or 5E but settled for what theu offered. They fit my extra wide feet very well. They look good. These are used for yard work and hold up well. The price can't be beat and is what was my deciding point.

Title: Great hiking/work boots that seem to be well made.
Review: This is the 2nd pair of Nortiv boots I have purchased "although this is a different style and boot then my previous pair". So far after a couple weeks of daily use up to 8-9 hours a day at work as a mechanic they have held up great. They do say waterproof however I always coat my boots with a quality waterproofing spray "as I do all boots, shoes, sneakers..etc" to give them an added protectant and they stay looking clean and newer for much much longer. My only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is that the laces continue to come undone and you are constantly having to tie them. Would not be an issue if you double knot them however then they would be difficult to remove at the end of the work day. They are comfortable and have great traction and have kept my feet fully dry "even when the boots are completely soaked" and they are fully dry on the exterior the next morning when I'm getting ready for work. I do wish I stuck with just a size 12 and not the 12 wide as they are a bit to wide "I usually buy wide if there is an option in the past with no issues". That being said you can't beat the quality for the price, even if they only last me 6 months in my work environment I would consider it a win and would order another pair.

Title: Excellent shoe for fair price
Review: They practically saved my feet in a Motorcycle accident. The are light, fits well, comfortable non slippery and waterproof for hiking and as evidence for riding motorcycle as well. In my opinion they also looks good

Title: Very Comfortable
Review: I bought these to replace an old pair of combat boots for doing work around the house. Once I tried these on that plan changed and I am wearing these all the time now. Very comfortable, water- proof, and well made and a great price. Would definitely buy these again.

Title: No more
Review: Nice boot and very well built visually but not as comfortable as I thought. Bought it based on the reviews of other "customers". There's a part of the tongue that was pressing against my foot that is painful to wear on my left foot. This is my second shoes from this brand and will be the second shoes I'm returning. No more buying from this brand. I hate to buy products and returning it.

Title: Great for hiking mountain terrain
Review: I just spent a week hiking rocky volcanic slopes in Northern New Mexico and fishing streams and lakes in that area, and these boots impressed me! Feet stayed dry and comfortable while other members of the group complained in the evenings of sore feet after climbing up and down steep inclines. Ankle support is good but still allows a bit of flex for enjoyable climbing and hiking. I walked for miles each day (sometimes in rain) on very uneven terrain and never got wet feet or blisters. Multiple trips through shallow water that covered the foot part of the boot proved that the waterproof claim is legit. The soles are softer than older style boots and look and feel more like running shoe soles. I did step down on a few sharp edged rocks descending hillsides that I could feel through the soles, but my feet were always comfortable. A variety of short cactus varieties are scattered on the ground in the area, but I never had spines penetrate the boots or create problems. One evening I stepped into water that was deeper than I thought, and it flooded one boot. I removed the insole and let the boot air out overnight and it was dry enough to wear comfortably for the rest of the week without problems. Even with plenty of abuse and water, the boots are ready for the next challenge. These are the most comfortable "real" boots I've worn in a long time, and I will order again when these eventually wear out.

Review: Me gustó que son realmente cómodas. Los materiales se sienten de calidad y aunque no las he probado bajo la lluvia... Sí repelen bien el agua. La protección solo es en la punta frontal de la bota, no cubre los dedos por la parte de arriba.Es la primera vez que me compro botas de este tipo y se me hicieron realmente grandes a la vista, pero por dentro son exactamente mi número.

Review: After reading many reviews and the note on the item page saying that they generally fit to size, I picked up a pair of 9.5 black boots (with some grey trim) as I dig anything in black. If Batman wore a hiking shoe, this would be it. The stitching is well done and the fabric looks great - they don't look poorly made by any means. They appear to be water proof/resistant up to about half-way up the boot, at which point the water would seep in through the top - they aren't hip gaitors or water boots, so I wouldn't expect them to handle much more than a few inches deep puddle/mud. They feel super comfortable underneath my feet and around the sides - nothing awkwardly poking into the arch of my foot or the sides of my ankles. While I did pick my usual size, they do feel *ever so slightly roomy* - but I am wearing super thin socks and if I were wearing a thicker pair, I'm sure the shoe would be filled out a bit more. Also, I feel like if I got a smaller size AND wore a thicker pair of socks, I would find it slightly cramped. Also! Hiking tends to make your feet a bit bigger from the bloodflow so I think it's a good call to settle on a little roomy rather than a perfect fit when you're at home on a couch. I like how easily they go on/come off - you don't have to do much lacing/delacing or do any forcing of your foot into it. You can feel that the sole is made from different materials in different spots - treads are made of a rubber to give you grip where the rest of the sole is made from a harder material to make the soles last longer. Toe cap for a bit of protection/grip/easier ascents. Comes with an extra pair of laces. The photo on the item page does it fair justice but if I get around to pulling out my camera, I'll add a few photos of the shoes before I begin destroying them.All in all - super happy with my purchase and I trust they will serve me well on my thru-hike of the WCT in a month. Thanks for the sick boots, Nortiv8!
