Not really boots made for Sunday morning church. But I don't wear my rawhide gloves to church either. Unless I plan on doing some construction projects. As with boots, it's hard to say right off the bat how long they will last. These Botas Pro boots are exceptionally made and sturdy. I think these will last a very long time. I don't particularly plan on SWAT'ing a home, trekking the entire Appalachian Trail, or taking on the Taliban. I use them for general outdoor and construction work. So lots of ladders, roofs, trees, sawdust, dirt, etc. These would have been perfect this summer when a gaggle of kids conned me into paintballing. Which is a blast by the way.Pro's:- Tough cowhide leather that is also double stitched- The nylon sides will provide breathability- Thick soles with some pretty aggressive patterning and good traction- Removable insole/Replaceable- Glue seams are tight and flawless. These might actually be the nicest seams I've seen on boots in this price range.- The little things like nice packaging, custom branded eyelets, and thick quality shoelaces.The toes are reinforced with extra leather. They fit me a little large out of the box, I just inserted extra gel soles and they fit really nice.Con'sNone yet. I'll break them in some more and if anything bad happens, I can always update the review.Overall, I'm impressed. They feel good and are light weight enough for extended use. Very sturdy. And the craftsmanship is outstanding. If I found these boots in the store for this price, I'd pick them up in a heartbeat. Good boots.Two thumbs up!
