Fabulous boots
Just got them, and I'm really happy with these boots. I was shoveling snow in them within an hour and they're very comfortable, warm, and dry. Not stiff at all out of the box. They feel lightweight but durable. Time will tell how they hold up. First impressions: 1. They are much more comfortable than three other similar pairs I tried from other sites/big box stores. 2. I wear a nine. These fit like a glove. Perfect. 3. The laces run down onto the toe box a bit, so you can tighten them as you wish. 4. The toe box is large enough to use inserts for plantar fasciitis, etc... This is a big plus for me. The inserts actually improved the fit a bit. 5. The leather parts look shineable. They'll look great with a decent polish. 6. The zipper on the side is nice but unnecessary: I find it easier just use the laces when putting them on. The zippers on both boots were a little sticky from a drop of glue that had oozed onto them. No big deal, I just scraped the glue and dangling threads off and they worked fine. Not worth returning them over it. Overall, I really like these boots. The price is terrific too.

very comfortable out of the box
Oct 2025 Normally I wait 6 months to write a review so I have more experience with a product, but these boots rate immediate comments. Comfort, these boots are superior to numerous name brand and far more expensive boots I have tried. I put these on the day they arrived to wear around the house for awhile. Within an hour or so they were feeling broken in. Next day I wore them all day and they felt great the whole time. Construction, appears to be very well done. There is a row of stitching at the top of the molded sole that I am hoping will prevent separation of the sole from the foot bed which is a problem with boots and sneakers of similar construction.. Of course they cannot be resoled, so how long they will hold up is yet to be seen. At the present price point, if they last 8 or more months they will prove to be an excellent value. Sizing, I wear 13-13.5 US men's and am very happy with the 13 I ordered. At this time I highly recommend this boot and will update as to durability in the coming months. I am not familiar with this brand, Nortiv 8, beyond this purchase but am impressed so far. Update, 14 June 2026 These boots are now 8 months used and continue to perform well. I have worn them every day, 14-16 hours a day and they still feel awesome on my feet! I have done roof work (they don't slip), general construction (great support) and riden my motorcycle. They haven't even built up dirt in the soles. It's as if they're self cleaning, except wet mulch. The boots are dirty on top, but show only light wear. The soles show 50-60%wear. Bottom line; I bought another pair, still in the box, for when they do wear out. On sale at $43.50 delivered I challenge you to find a better pair of boots. These are not heavy duty rebuildable boots but unbeatable for everyday lite to medium duty wear.

Impressively powerful!
By powerful I mean I wear these everyday, all day. Indoor, outdoor, at the time of this review they are my only footware. Why the 4 star instead of five? While they seem more durable than a crowbar, the insoles are sadly not. Disintegrated in under 2 months, leaving a honeycomb pattern that bit into my foot and grated cheap insoles like they were cheese. Easily fixed by buying quality insoles to replace them. Aside from that? Comfortable, durable, long lasting so far, and stylish as well as super easy to take on and off: Once tied and tucked, the laces stay without loosening and despite hot summers, snowy winters and infrequent rain, these boots don't quit. Better than walmart or even bootworld at a fraction of the price.

Initial Review – Received 12/07/2025 This is just my first impression of the boots. I’ll post a follow-up review on comfort and durability after I’ve worn them for a week or two. Here are my initial thoughts: Pros 1. Price & First Impressions: For this type of boot, the price is outstanding. They may not be a big-name brand, but after years in the military and law enforcement—and owning boots from Danner, Galls, Under Armour, Oakley, and Bates—I can say my first impression was right on par with opening a new pair from any of those companies. (And yes, I still love the smell of fresh leather in the morning.) 2. Stitching & Build Quality: The leather is smooth and took two quick coats of polish extremely well, resulting in a very clean shine—not something I can say for every major brand. So far, I’m impressed. The zippers move easily, feel solid, and don’t seem prone to snagging or binding. The Velcro tab that secures the zipper is also strong. Lacing them up is straightforward. 3. Initial Comfort: Right out of the box, the boots felt surprisingly comfortable—almost like they were already broken in. At the time of writing, I’ve worn them for about six hours, and everything feels great so far. Cons 1. Upper Eyelets: I wish the top two or three eyelets were speed-lace loops. It’s not a big issue—it just takes a few extra seconds to lace them up. The existing eyelets are roomy, though, and the laces slide through them easily. 2. Pull Loop: A pull tab on the back would make putting the boots on a bit easier. Not a dealbreaker, just something that would be a nice addition.

Good Enough
They're decent for the price. Not terribly made at all, true to size, and comfortable enough. Just don't expect them to last a long time. The soles are a soft material and even just wearing them about an hour a day they only lasted a year before I wore directly through them, the heel is not solid and is just a honeycomb so once you break through you are basically directly exposed to the elements.

Great boots at a great price!
First of all, I will always look to buy from this seller first. I ordered an 11 because that’s what my Podiatrist said I needed to do. I’ve had issues in the past with shoe sizes. In the military an 11 gave me horrible blisters and 10.5 were too tight. The same issue came up with these boots. Size 11 was way too loose and had too much room in the toe of the boot. I had purchased the boots on a Prime Day deal, which gave me super good pricing for these boots. So, I contacted the seller and explained the situation. They had me purchase a 10.5 (which were more money than the 11, since Prime Day was over) and they refunded me the difference. That’s amazing customer service and the way it should be! As for the boots, they are a sharp looking boot with a nice non-slip sole. Comfort-wise, they are very comfortable. There will be very little break-in needed with these. Sizing is the difficult part. I am not going to deduct a star since this is a common issue for me. But, my suggestion is if you have any doubts about the size, just order your normal size and one size down as well, and send back the pair that don’t fit as well. Overall, great experience with both the seller and the boots.

Leider fehlt eine Nietscheibe
Der Stiefel ist soweit ok , leider fehlt an den Löchern für die Schnürbänder eine Nietscheibe , das könnte Probleme geben mit der Zeit

Top Stiefel!
Ich habe mir diese Stiefel gekauft da ich etwas mit Halt suchte und dieses Schuhwerk auch hervorragend zu meinem Kleidungsstil passt. Ich arbeite in einem großen Bowlingunternehmen in der Technik und stecke auch gut mal 10 Stunden lang in diesen Stiefeln. Ich habe sie zwar eine Größe zu groß bestellt aber mich stört das nicht- ziehe ich halt ein zweites Paar Socken an. Die Stiefel sind äußerst bequem, sehen gut aus und sind wirklich robust. Oft bin ich schon an scharfkantigen Dingen hängengeblieben und nichts ist passiert. Kälte und Nässe bemerkt man in ihnen gar nicht. Garantiert eine Kaufempfehlung meinerseits. Liebe Grüße, Matthias

Comfortable!
These boots exceeded my expectations! I honestly didn’t expect them to be this comfortable, but they fit great and provide excellent protection as well. The quality is impressive, and they’ve been comfortable to wear for extended periods. Great product — I would definitely recommend them!
