The only boots that breath and dont hurt my knees or back.

When I got my Nike Boots I was very excited to start wearing them and putting them to use. I am on my feet 8-10 hours a day and I can say this with confidence: If you order these boots, wear them with THICK socks. I made the mistake of wearing regular socks and by the end of my first day of wearing these, both of my achilles were red and I had big blisters on both of them. I have been wearing Nike’s (shoes and boots) for many years but I will not order these boots again. The material that supports the ankle part of the leg is highly uncomfortable and these boots, in my opinion..are not to be worn everyday for long hours. Nike usually makes great products but I think they missed the boat on these boots.

Light weight, light color with a breathable upper and insole. Very durable vulcanized “Panama” sole. Walking in railroad ballast is hell on any boot, these last 3 to 4 times longer(3-ish years) than boots twice the price. These meet all railroad requirements for operating employees and thank GOD they do. It’s hard to find a 6”+, lace up, non safety/steel toe with a 90* heel and oil/slip resistance. I prefer McRae over the similar Altama version because of fit and rivet drain holes on the insole.
