I keep buying even with the issues
"I’ve had multiple pairs of the work boots and the ballistic trainers, and even though the soles start coming off the shoes and boots, and the insoles fall apart within no time of wearing them, the comfort and support is so good that I will continue to buy them. They just need to up the quality control in my experience with them. If I can buy new insoles that would be pretty cool."

Good overall boot
"Fits to size and is very comfortable to walk on different terrains. My only complaint is that they pinch a bit at the where the tongue meets the toe of the boot"

Not for slippery floors
"These boots are comfortable right out of the box, are super light weight, and easy to maintain. They do not work so well on a wet production brewery floor where various solvents and chemicals have made the ground slick. Previously my other work boots have had an oil resistant layer to prevent slipping. Unfortunately with these boots each step is like being on an ice rink. But for other work environments they would be a great choice."

Solid, Lightweight work boots
"By far one of the most comfortable pair of Safety Rated work Boots I have now. It took some breaking in for the first couple of days and swapping out the insoles for my wide feet to make these work. The composite toe is roomy enough for my wide foot. The soles provide a solid and protective platform to stand on ladders, avoid hazards on a job site while remaining flexible enough to walk a mile or so."

Great Safety Boot!
"Incredible Safety Boot for work and even travel! I will be wearing these on the next airline trip I will take for work when I need safety footwear at the location. These boots are so comfortable that I can just wear them for travel vs. carrying them in a bag. Daily usage is great, and they require very little break-in time for your foot to find the comfort level and stretch that leather boots always have."

Great work boots!
"These shoes are great and as advertised. The do run a bit big in comparison to the GoRuck ballistic trainers and runners. I had to go down a full size."

Too hot. Well made. Comfy only when it's cold.
"After getting a pair of of standard MACVs and loving them, I thought I'd replace my hot, unbreathable, uncomfortable safety boots with these. I did not realize that they are lined, unlike the normal MACVs. This makes them hot and unbreathable. They are very comfortable as long as the the ambient temp is below freezing, but I am disappointed. I guess I missed some fine print. I am keeping them because they are an improvement over what I had. I am also trying to remove the lining, which is not easy because the boots are well made. Like ridiculously well made. . . the lining does not come out easily at all. If Goruck ever makes a safety boot that is a cool and breathable as the unlined MACV, I will be all over it."

Great boot, but not for my arches
"I liked the boots, but they were a bit too narrow in the mid foot, Nd a bit too tall in the arch for me so I had to return them"
