NORTIV 8 Men's Waterproof Hiking Boots, Lightweight Tactical Boots for Men, Mid Ankle Men's Hiking Boots for Trekking Trails, Outdoor Adventures Hiking

I work on a 12 hour shift and i walk and move every 30 minutes. These boots so far had exceeded my expectations for a $38 price tag. It has enough cushioning that makes it comfortable to wear all day. The only drawback for me is the shoe laces. I replaced the shoe lace with a shorter one made of paracord. Overall, im satisfied with this purchase and im planning on purchasing an extra one as a back up in case the quality of these shoes changes in the future.

These boots are both sturdy and lightweight. I would suggest ordering a half size larger than you usually wear which will ensure they fit nice with heavier socks on. Highly recommend this product. Great value!!!Update to my earlier review. I purchased these boots in December and had been very happy with them hiking in them every day. I live on an island so lots of beach hiking and almost all the inland trails have sandy soil as well. Last week while walking on the beach I began to feel a lump under my left foot. I figured some sand may have gotten in over the top which can happen but my pants legs covered the top. When I got home I tried to dump the sand out and nothing. I took out the inner sole and tried again, nothing. I could feel the sand under the fabric and could manipulate it but could not get it out. I had to take a seam ripper and put a small hole into the fabric to free the sand. I have no idea how it got in. My concern was that if sand can get in so can water. Low and behold yesterday while walking in dew laden grass, no rain or puddles mind you just dew, my feet (both left and right) got soaked. These boots had gone from waterproof (which I believe they were initially) to sponges. As a result I can no longer recommend or endorse this product.

Edited**** Seller contacted me and has offered a full refund since these boots didn't work as I had hoped. Updated to 4 star from 2 star. I'll just wear them as regular hiking boots, as they are quite comfortable.These boots are waterproof if the water doesn’t go over the top. I understand that they will get wet if water flows in from the top. I expected that. What I didn’t expect was how heavy they got when wet! Like a sponge inside! At least 3-4 times heavier than when dry. To top it off, it took 3 days in a very dry environment (Grand Canyon) for the boots to dry out. Very disappointed. They are comfortable hiking books, but not useful if the water goes over the top and gets inside. These boots are not good for hiking up stream beds. Just takes way too long to dry out, and get way too heavy. Disappointed.

Cons: you must double knot the laces to keep them tied.Pros: Great quality for the price. firm ankle support. Waterproof. Water Wicking. Comfortable insoles. Good traction.I have had these hiking boots for a couple of weeks now. I take my 2 dogs hiking 2-3 times a week. They pull me down some loose gravel trails, and I am able to catch traction from the slide. We cross the shallows (water lower than the top of the boot) and they do not leak. Temps have been in the low-mid 90s durong our hikes, and my feet stay dry. The water wicking material is for real. These are the first hiking boots that I haven't thrown a pair of Dr. Scholls inserts into; because the memory foam insole is that comfortable of a spongy support. The laces fit firm in the upper hooks holding the hightop in a firm and comfortable ankle support. The laces don't slip from the hooks when the shoes untie; however, the laces must be double knotted if you don't want to continually stop and retie them. Also, the boots shipped with an extra pair of laces.

My son is a landscaper and beats the heck out of these shoes. He says they feel great and do fantastic in the rain, even when soaked, they dry overnight in front of a fan and are dry in the morning to take another beating !!

I wanted some cheap boots to use during the winter/fall instead of wearing out my expensive Keen hiking boots for general duties. I wanted something light weight enough that I could wear them in the office all day but also comfortable because I do a fair amount of walking at work. These look good and so far have functioned well. Soft but supportive sole and waterproof, having tested them while power washing my car. That usually saturates my boots and shoes and these keep me dry. I have not tried to submerge them, however. I purchased an 11 and usually wear a 10.5-11. They are just a touch big, but wearable. I don't think you'll have to worry about these running small.

I love these boots, they fit perfect and love that they so light. I needed the ankle support and these boots fit the need just right. I was looking at others but after sometime I went with these for wait and ankle highth. Will be buying them again if mine ever ware out.

After two weeks the laces have broken on one boot. The speed clips for the laces are too small. The laces are six inches too long. The sole is thin-I can feel small stones through the sole. Good news is the boot contains leather, looks good and is supportive. Grip is good.

I have hypermobile flat feet with very long toes and need to wear supportive orthotic insoles. Obtaining reasonably priced walking boots has proved difficult as the uncomfortable / painful aspects only become apparent after wearing them for a while outside, by which time I am stuck with them. Having read some positive reviews I decided to take the risk of wearing them outside and can honestly say that they are very comfortable indeed after a leisurely 4 hour walk and I feel confident about going on a long walk in them knowing that my feet won't hurt by the time I get back. They have enough cushioning to protect my feet but not so much that they are unstable for my hypermobile ankles and the heel base is sufficiently wide to be stable. Also the upper part of the boot is not so stiff as to rub against and hurt my calves, a problem I have had with some other walking boots. I have no idea how long they will last but so far, for the price, these are very good value, extremely warm and comfortable and I would recommend them highly.

These boots started off great, they fit really well and were really comfortable.Unfortunately, I've only had them 3 weeks and only walked 24 miles, walking on pavements and fields, and they've completely split apart on one side (see picture) VERY disappointed.

These boots are great for the money and very comfortable to wear and light weight my first time purchasing this type of boots I'm used to steel toe cap boots.But I am really pleased with my new purchase.It was my friend's opinions on walking boots or shoes saying that walking boots or shoes are the most comfortable footwear so I looked at loads of different types of walking boots and shoes and I finally made the above choice of the price and design and look of the boots.I have recommended these boots to my friends and family.

A great fit, really comfortable and smart but my toes were soaked within 10 minutes as I walked on a grassy track. It wasn't raining but the grass was wet. I'm very dissapointed but here they are, packed and ready to return.

Really pleased with the boots, perfect fit and so comfortable, use them to go birding, I walk for miles and they don't rub, no need to break them in, and you get two pairs of laces, I will certainly be getting them again.
