I have had a few
"I have had a few pares of these boots, they seen to last the longest for the type of walk/hiking I do every day. About 1 to 1 1/2 hrs everyday on rough/uneven hilly terrain. I have had other brands with little success."

The Best Boot I have ever owned 6 times. .
"I bought Oboz for the first time in 2020. . . . 8 identical pairs later I'm still impressed. However this last purchase annoyed as I learnt that they are no longer made and I had to search high and low and internationally looking for a pair the right size and color. . . I settled with black. Please put these back into production. . . . without any changes. I buy a pair a of mid-boot and shoes each time I made the previous purchase."
Don't buy these.
"These boots gave me plantar fasciitis in both feet. Took me a while to work out there were the problem. Switched to Salomon and it fixed the problem almost immediately. The compound sole also falls apart - see photo. Only a pity I can't give 0 stars. Give these boots a miss."
Hard on your feet.
"Purchased these to do a three day hike with a 20kg pack, very disappointed. The laces kept coming undone under the gaiters. Due to the round construction and thickness the laces wouldn't bite down to stop them from becoming loose. The outer sole though rugged is way too hard and almost brittle. I felt every step with a 20kg pack and my feet took the brunt. The inner sole offered no support or protection and by the end of day one was as flat as a piece of paper. I didn't get to test out the waterproofing but the breathability was put to the test and failed dismally. I used the recommended kathmandu hiking socks and even with this highly priced combination my feet were wet from the start to the finish. So yes very disappointed I should have stuck with what I knew and gone the Merrell Moabs."
Mens Oboz boots.
"Comfortable and look good. Haven't put them to any real work yet,but have a few Kathmandu items which have never let me down. Got in on sale too,bonus."
Work, Walk & Play
"Love this boot, want to buy another pair of 10UK Wide but there are none available in my area! I've used mine for work, sport and just want another pair. Terrific for being on your feet for a long period too. Please, Please find me a pair. The wide fit is brilliant"
Great, if they were waterproof
"Worn daily for last 6 weeks on the farm. Comfortable and holding up well, but they're are not at all water proof. They are wet right though just working in damp grass π"
They are light, comfortable and
"They are light, comfortable and good for the price"

Awesome
"I have been getting Oboz shoes for over 10 years. I love them and now finally black paid in my size so I can were them to work. I have bought a second pair. I walk a lot in my job and these are really comfortable water proof is great as I'm often walking in the rain. I would like more variety in Oboz of black in the woman's sizes."
