KEEN Utility Men's Pittsburgh 6" Leather Waterproof Steel Toe Work Boots, Bison, 13 US

Update:After a year of daily wear, I'm pleased to report that these work boots have held up exceptionally well. They continue to provide the same comfort and support that I initially praised. I've been using them at the power plant, where I walk on gravel, asphalt, and frequently climb stairs and ladders, and they've consistently offered a great sense of security.Regarding the minor issue with the laces coming undone easily, it seems that with more wear and usage, they have improved and now stay tight for longer periods. Additionally, the sole has proven to be durable, even through the cold months.In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend these work boots. They have exceeded my expectations and have proven to be a reliable choice for daily use in demanding environments.Original review:I like how comfortable the work boots are. They have great support and are easy to fit into. I have been using it for about 2 weeks at the power plant and they have been holding up pretty well. I walk around on gravel, asphalt and go up stairs as well as ladders and they offer great support and good sense of security. I will update after 1 year which is the minimum I expect I this price point. One minor issue are the laces that tend to come undone easily. Maybe with more wear they will hold tight longer. Also, because of how little use I have given them, I’m not sure how the sole is gonna hold up, especially with the cold months coming soon. As I mentioned before, I will update once those concerns are addressed.

Great boot, right from the get go, no break in, comfortable for 12's in the field. Had Redwing boots for 3 years that cost way more and were uncomfortable because they never felt like they broke in. Probably bought enough replacement soles OEM and generics to pay for another set of boots. Don't think I shop around anymore unless Keen stops making these.

I really love these boots. I do metal work on tractor trailers and beat the heck out of everything I use for work. In almost all measures these boots hold up. Unfortunately the top of these boots being mesh doesn't mix well with sparks and they only lasted 4 months. Super comfortable though. Would recommend for any work where sparks are not regular.

Great fit, traction, comfort, protects my feet in the wild!

This is my second pair of steel toe Pittsburgh's. I am a lab airflow controls technician so I spend a fair amount of time on (new and old) job sites going up and down ladders, climbing stairs, unloading and loading my tools, cart, ladder, etc. I also wear them to mow two lawns a week, work on cars/trucks, blow/shovel snow, and do whatever else needs done - I wear them 7 days a week year round.The first pair (size 8's) lasted about a year - I wore them longer than that but I probably shouldn't have. I bought this 2nd pair (7.5's) a 1/2 size smaller because, even though my feet measure just over size 8 (with the standard foot gauge plate), the 8's just seemed big once they got stretched out and worn in. The 7.5's I have now fit just right, but I do not have a wide foot either. Note that, in looking at some online shoe size charts, size 7.5 is only about 0.2" shorter in length than size 8 so there is not a lot of difference.My first pair always seemed like it really was not made right with some bumpiness around where the ball of your foot is....I definitely should have called Keen about it or taken them back to Cabelas but did not have the time to mess with it. Towards the end, the inside of the first pair got really bumpy. This 2nd pair (the 7.5's) seems fine in that respect so far, so with respect to the fit and no bumpiness, I really like this 2nd pair so far.On my first pair, the outside of my left hip started hurting (age 57) at about 6 months so, following a buddy's advice, I bought some Dr Scholl's Orthotic Inserts (not cheap at $49) that are selected by the Scholl's machine at Walmart. Within a couple days, my hip was fine. I suppose once this new pair starts breaking down some I may have to do the same thing. The same thing happened with my Danner's, which were before my first pair of Pittsburgh's. (My buddies have told me when it is the outside of your hip it probably has something to do with your back, but if it's the inside of your hip then it is more likely actually your hip.)If these get bumpy on the inside or maybe just to try something else, I may try the Keen Milwaukee's next. A buddy of mine that is a framer went from the Pittsburgh to the Milwaukee's but that was mainly because the Pittsburgh's were too narrow for him and he did not realize you can get them in a wide width.As far as price goes, the $167 I paid through Amazon Prime was cheaper than Cabelas at $179 + tax......but I see now the Amazon price is up to $179 too, and I guess good boots ARE expensive, but man, still seems like a bend-over.....something like $139 would be more like it !

Thus boot are amazing!!! I use them for work and also for hiking they are super comfortable and light I absolutely love and recommend this boots

I work in a shipyard environment and go through boots rather quickly. These have been lasting longer than most boots.

Worked in these boots for a year. Very durable and my feet do not hurt at the end of the day. I work in all kinds of conditions and mostly outside on rough terrain and concrete. Walking in the boots for miles are better than walking shoes and the waterproofing is just right for small puddles.The only downside to this boot is they are not as wide as typically a keens boot would be. They can get tight on days where your feet swell a little right near the toes where they meet the foot. On those days these boots might be a bit challenging if you are having a wider foot like myself. I wear a 10.5w and they are as long as they should be but not quite as wide as you might expect. They remind me of the Mt. Vernon boot when it comes to width.
