Perfect for my needs but added insoles

Big fan of this brand. I wear through them and buy a new pair when needed.

i dont write reviews very often.. but these shoes are awesome! i cant go on enough about how happy i am with these shoes. ive always been looking for converse high top style in a boot form factor. both for style and the fact that i need warmer shoes. i was looking at these ones that Levi made but they got horrible reviews saying they were too heavy and poorly made. then i found these and thought i'd give them a try. they are cheaper than the levi's if i recall. they are also made really well.these shoes are alot like converse high tops, but made with much thicker and tougher canvas. i mean.. like military grade canvas. and its not like its made out of multiple layers of thin material like converse. these shoes are tough! the rubber is one solid piece too. converse has multiple pieces of rubber glued together- not these! it seems like every detail of these shoes were carefully thought out and made with high quality. even the shoelaces are perfect! they are flat which i love. they also have amazing grip, which is also pretty unique because the tread is widely spaced which keeps them nice and lightweight while actually providing better tread. ive had these for a couple months or so now, and i dont expect them to come apart soon. ive been abusing them. ive used them every time i ride my harley, and they get dragged alot. these shoes can be used as work boots (unless you need the steel toe) motorcycle boots, hiking boots, or even just every day shoes. theyre so comfortable, im actually still wearing them in the house right now. the only problem i encountered was that they took a week of wearing them daily to finally break them in enough to be comfortable. converse high tops need breaking in too, but not as much as these do. which makes sense, because they are made of much thicker canvas. but fast forward to now, and they are extremely comfortable and thoroughly broken in. i ordered a size 9 which is my size for converse high tops, and at first these felt so tight, i was ready to return them. i am SO GLAD i didnt because they just needed to be broken in. so if you think they are too tight GIVE THEM A CHANCE because trust me they need some breaking in and it will be worth it. in the end they are sized the same as converse high tops. they are not exactly waterproof, duh, its canvas. but surprisingly enough i havent felt my feet get wet from walking in the rain. i also did eventually spray it with waterproofing spray. all in all, ive never been happier over a shoe purchase.pros:-very tough, high quality build-stylish-comfortable, practical, lightweight-versatility. can be used for work, motorcycle, hiking, ect-no squeak-good grip-better arch support than converse high topscons:-no steel/carbon fiber toe-needs breaking in-waterproofing spray needed

I'll update this as I continue to wear them.Day 1: UnpackingThese boots were comfortable out of the box. The fit is exact and perfect in comparison to the Converse All-Star high tops. Do yourself a favor and get fitted for a pair of Chuck T's if you're unsure about Palladium fitment. They're exactly the same in both room and feel. Obviously the Palladium Pampa Hi's have a more aggressive tread; but that's beside the point. The higher tread and more pliable sole make these about 1.4x more comfortable than a pair of Converse Chuck Highs. These are, also, not much heavier than the Converse. I'll repeat this comparison further, I'm sure.The wear-in isn't as bad as other hiking boots I've encountered. There's no sore ankle or ball-of-foot skin wear for me. The upper mate-stitching isn't obvious when walking / wearing for the first time. The upper canvas is, too, pliable just like the lower soles. The laces seem tough now but I wonder how much pulling / tugging will adversely affect their reliability. I'll continue to keep my focus on these; as I don't typically trust cotton bound laces on boots. A length of paracord might fit better and last longer.I'm only 3 days deep into these boots but, so far, am impressed. The light-weight mixed with obvious flexibility and military-style looks are great so far. Next week I'll continue to test, outside an urban environment, with a short hike with mild grade. My previous all leather boots proved to be too heavy and non-flexible for a comfortable walk through the light grade.Great gear thus far..Day 7:These boots have only become more comfortable! There's a small seam overlap in the right boot on the outer side where the upper meets the forward canvas that bent downward and caused discomfort until forced in the opposite direction. Otherwise, I've worn these EVERY day for about 9 to 10 hours straight and have not felt any other discomfort. The sole is very forgiving and rather soft; which helped on the trail today. I walked mostly dirt path but took my dog up into some sturdy rocks and had no trouble keeping up with him. The ankle support isn't strong. I'm sure to either pack or pre-wrap my ankles with athletic/waterproof wrap on my next hike just in-case. I've not noticed much wear on the sole tread, either, which is entirely surprising. I tend to wear the insides of previous shoes and soles quicker than the outside; I've not seen this same wear pattern with these.. YET. I'm not sure that they're entirely worn in, as I've not noticed any age marks in the top/upper yet. Though, these are surely more pliable than any other canvas-upper boot that I've purchased yet. Not bad at all for $55.

This is my wife's account, but I (Joe) buy from it.I'm very harsh on what I wear I have several different pairs of Palladium boots.I have used these boots in all kinds of adverse environments.All over the World, and all over the USA.I've worn these boots for over 12 years.Worn them in Afghanistan as a defense contractor for the U.S. DOD.I've worn these boots in the Arizona desert. I've hiked with these boots. I've used them walking over every kind of surface (Lots of jagged rocks)....NEVER has the soul ever split! I still have a couple pairs that I've worn the lugs almost off, and I still wear them.ALSO....the canvas has never come off of the soul.I have the Palladium Men's Pampa Tactical Boot,Brown/Olive and wore them in Afghanistan as well.LOVE THESE!I also have them in leather . With a little mink oil they keep your feet dry in wet conditions.It really tells you something when the French Foreign Legion, and Israeli Defense Force (IDF) Elite Forces wear them.I'm not affiliated or paid to put this comment down.I LOVE THE BOOTS!!!!!
