I've been wearing these Wolverine Floorhand boots for about six months now, and they've become my go-to for everything from muddy farm work to rainy commutes. The waterproof full-grain leather is no joke – I've stood in puddles that reached halfway up the boots, and my socks stayed completely dry.

What surprised me most was how lightweight they feel compared to other work boots. I can wear them for 12-hour shifts without that lead-foot feeling. The rounded toe is a game-changer too – no more squished toes at the end of the day like with some square-toe boots I've tried.

The slip-resistant soles have saved me more times than I can count, especially when working on wet metal surfaces. They do run about half a size large though – I swapped the original insoles for some orthopedic ones and now they fit like gloves.

After daily abuse including construction sites and lumber yards, the soles show minimal wear. The only downside? The interior lining started showing wear after about four months of heavy use. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting for those expecting indestructible interiors.

For the price, these outperform boots I've paid twice as much for. They're not dressy, but they've got a clean enough look that I don't mind wearing them to the hardware store after work.
