This is is my first pair of Oboz. I bought these for an everyday work shoe. We build a lot of fence and are always in the rock, dirt, mud and steep. I wear them every day and I am completely impressed/satisfied with these little shoes! I don't have a complaint about them and that's really rare for me. I've had them almost a year. Super durable and have just stayed comfortable. Can't say enough about these shoes and they are made in America!
