I`ve had two major knee surgeries when I was a teen. I`m on cement 6 days a week. So i`m kinda fussy about my boots..
I always wore redwings, started trying cheaper boots. Irish Setter-no cheaper didn`t last long, Wolverine-Comfortable but soles came apart, Rocky-doesn`t make an unisulted boot that I`ve found worth a hoot, Georgia-by far the most comfortable, nicest wearing boot, but soles split in two after the first month, brought em back, soles lasted two months in the next pair..
So, now I`m back to red wings. For me they break in tough. I always try to buy a pair to wear when I`m kickin around for a few weeks before I actually need em for work.
If you look at em some of the cheaper ones will be made in china, or made in USA with imported materials. The higher end comfort force red wings are made in USA. When I buy a new pair I buy an extra set of the comfort force insoles and a set of laces. Seems like after 6 mo I put the new insoles in, new laces on and go for another 6 mo. Then switch to my "good pair", use the year old pair for farm boots and the farm boot pair goes in the burn barrel. Then the whole chain start over..
Like I said though, I have more incissions than I can count on my fingers, and a handful of screws in my knees. So maybe this standing on cement thing ain`t so bright anyway.. Good luck BW
