CQR Men's Military Tactical Boots - Lightweight 6 Inch Combat Boots for Hiking, Work & Outdoor Activities | Durable EDC Work Boots with Slip Resistance | Perfect for Army, Construction & Camping

So far so good. They were really large compared to other brands. I typically wear UA, I'm a size 10 but always have to buy size 10.5 in UA..... these are opposite....I sent size 10 back and ordered 9.5...they were still big. But they are light and decently comfortable and holding up well after a couple months. I work construction and it's always hard to find a decent lightweight shoe that holds up and doesn't break the bank. They aren't as comfortable as most UA shoes/hikers ive owned but not far behind.. The side zip feature is definitely nice, makes slipping on and off a breeze. "Water repellant" is definitely a stretch, but for the price I wasn't expecting much in that area. If the price stays reasonable and I can get a least 6 to 8 months of wear, I will be buying more in the future.UPDATE: After more than a yr of wear, typically 5-6 days a week, these shoes have held up remarkably well. I am beyond impressed. I changed from 4 stars to 5. I have used these for hiking, hunting but mostly for my day to day job of construction. I typically wear them unzipped, unless I'm hiking in them or on a roof/climbing thru trusses. They arent built for long hikes unless the terrain is pretty forgiving. They dont do great on steep hills or rocky terrain, the sole just doesnt have enough cushion for that. But I have done it a few times and have had worse experiences with hikers 2x to 3x their price. But u will not find a better hiker for mild terrain or daily walking/work for the money. My old ones have a couple small holes from working construction, but the ripstop fabric has kept them very small and they're still wearable. I just bought a new pair, but will keep the old ones for yrs to come for jobs like painting or when i need a comfortable pair of shoes for a dirty/messy job.
