I've worn these the past 4 days while working 12hrs shifts, walking on average 35000 steps each day. I go from outdoors in the semi trailer yard to in the shop, and these things feel like walking on clouds. No water has gotten through em yet and i was in the snow and freezing rain for a few hours the last two days. They're light weight, even lighter than my old Columbia's but they feel more solid. The toes are rigid, not like steel or composite, it's literally just the front tip of the boot. They fit perfect and look great too. If you work on your feet i recommend buying a pair, you won't regret it bro.
