Why are they underrated? They are tough as fuck. Your $350 red wings aren't nearly as rugged.

You know those aren't the "real" corcorans. It's just a sneaky merchant who adopted the iconic corcoran name to his brand.

You wear them you fucking sperg

Just wear them hard, no need to ruin perfectly good pair of boots.
Go take long ass hikes to wear them in and polish them often, that way they will get more flexible and age with grace.

I was thinking about copping a pair 10 years ago and even then I was hearing stuff about shanks breaking and them not being great.

You always wonder about internet reviews, though. How many of these guys were doing the footwear equivalent of batoning?

>>12556050
just don't. wear them a lot. you will have to either way, boots are mostly uncomfortable for the first few hours

What's a similar model jump boot without the toe cap?

These boots are made by the same company that made them in WWII, to the same specs. They will last years and years. The sole can be replaced by a cobbler.

They are great but the soles are rubber garbage. Nothing near the corcorans or even some generic canadian parade boots.
