Wolverine Men's W03367 DuraShock-M Casual Boots

Update 8/2016: NOW MADE IN CHINA! So discouraging to see another quality pair of boots go the way of a no quality control country manufacture. Amazon still has the wrong statement on the 10.5 size that they're made in the US which is why I reordered. I've decided to give them the 30 day test that Wolverine puts on their boots, if they don't have any of the typical flaws all made in China boots tend to, I'll keep them. As I said below, these boots are very well designed to keep your feet warm and dry in a variety of conditions.2011: To get the country of origin straight: the uppers (leather) on the boots is made in the Dominican Republic. However the final assembly on the boot is in the USA which makes them a US product, not imported. The main difference there is quality control, there's just a lot more of it on boots constructed in the US. I ordered my size, a 10.5 D and they fit just fine. The outsoles are glued not stitched so they can't be replaced, decent quality, not like Vibram though. I got these at 25% off for just over $100, and to be honest wouldn't have bought them otherwise. I was willing to pay that for a boot that's not made in China, and with some decent leather quality. Casual boots that can be worn out as well and will keep my feet basically dry they are. All in all this is a boot that should last a good long while and will give good comfort and durability on flat surfaces.Pros: Warm comfortable boots. Easy on, off. Easy cleaning, decently repel oil. These boots improve with wear, the kind of sienna brown suede look shown in the picture is actually how the boots look after you've scuffed them up a bit- which is nice. The nubuck leather is actually very near smooth when you get them and after a few days wearing, brushing, cleaning etc. the boots are now nice and suede looking. The soles are light colored so you could wear them on hardwood without worrying about streaks. The boots are quite sturdy on flat floors.Cons: the waterproofing is sketchy, nubuck doesn't always waterproof the same as smooth leather. But these are better defined as water resistant. These don't wick the water off the boots but rather allow the water to cover the surface and not penetrate theoretically. Eventually though, after walking in wet grass for instance, they do get wet inside constantly contacting water. Even after I sprayed them with waterproofing silicone it didn't change this. It's possible with repeated spraying they might develop a better seal.The only other real complaint is that even with a D (medium) wide boot they have a rather narrow tread that doesn't handle uneven surfaces very well. They tend to get high sided and you really have to be careful because they'll roll over on your ankles. They're not really meant to do a lot of rigorous terrain walking, nor moving fast. I can tell that pushing them hard on uneven surfaces would eventually work the outsoles loose.

Pretty comfy only concern is that the boot and soul have som areas that are separating not horribly but does give me worries if it does get worse

I first ordered this Wellington boot(W03258)<- and ended up cancelling it; because I discovered It is the STEEL-TOED one. I'm pleased as a bug in the rug with this boot now. First it exactly fits a 10.5M. Funny thing is, Inside the removable pads are sized 11-11.5M, but the boot is marked as a 10.5M. Last year I ordered a wolverine boot and the fit was too tight. I'm wondering if they have resized them accordingly now, but regardless my 10.5 dogs FIT these boots now. I was afraid I would have to send this back and get a bigger size but NO it fits as expected. Make sure you understand the W03367 areNOT Steel-toe. WHY I want these are twofold:1.) It's lined and insulated. The insulation isn't important, but the combination does wick away moisture which causes the dreaded....stinky feet. You can wear these all day, and with this type of shock absorbing sole you can, and pull off these boots, dry socks and no smell 7 days a week.2.) The second reason is the bonded sole to leather uppers. I've another style of Wolverines that lace with this sole and I just love them. Back in '89 both my Heels were crushed in a car wreck and these shoes help cushion and are pleasant to walk in. This sole is permanently bonded to the leather. No water will leak into the boot thru this bond. Maybe directly thru the leather, but not the bond. This sole now looks to be made in a silicone type manner as you will notice if you zoom the picture and see the clearness. This is a very different type sole than a lot of other boots.Now the cons: The color I got was a darker earth brown than what this picture shows. No big deal, this is a ruddy suede type of leather that seems to be in style for a working shoe. This is what this shoe comes in, you either want this boot for the bonded sole, lining, Engineer/Wellington style, or you need to look for another style. I would rather have had a buffed and polished type leather. But it is what it is! And just a little water soaks into this leather right off the bat. Suppose to be waterproof but someone remarked that is between the bond and leather. I'm going to do what I can to prolong my investment in my footwear. So I will probably look into a silicone treatment over a beeswax type of waterproofing that would darken the leather in a heartbeat perhaps two-fold.Apparently on this page I and someone else got a notice to signup for an email about shoes and receive 20% off your first purchase up to $500. I did and this dropped my price to below $100. If you want these boots and get that notice. DO IT

I love these boots. I work in the oil and gas industry and have purchased these boots for the last few years. They are comfortable and hold up to the punishment I put them through on a daily basis quite well. Can't beat em for the price

Was worried because I wear a EEE but ordered the 10M and it’s a perfect fit. Tried them on at the store first but they couldn’t find the mate to purchase the pair and didn’t want to help order a pair for me.From the moment I put them on until I take them off after a long day they feel very comfortable. It’s hot summer now (100*F+) and they still feel very comfortable. Wore them in extremely slippery conditions and was surprised at the grip.The only confusion was how to care for them. Very little info on packaging. I work in very harsh conditions so this is important. Tried to call the manufacturer but was on hold forever so I hung up.

Moved from Az to Ohio. Could have a better arch support.

Ordered a pair after I moved to Denver last winter. A friend gave it rave reviews at a ski trip last Thanksgiving, so I thought I'd give it a shot. They're super warm. I wear them 3-4 times to work during the week. They're also my go to boot to wear to the ski slopes every weekend. Easy to put on and take off. The sole has decent traction, but nothing like my winter backpacking boots, but these aren't really meant to be worn into the wilderness. I've had them about a year at this point and they're still holding up great. Would buy another pair when these need to be replaced. Remember to treat them with water proofing compound and they'll hold up well. Picture attached showing how they look today.
