Brode Hi Steel Toe

I bought these because I wanted a pair of steel-toes that looked cool enough to be street shoes...because I care about looking cool while I'm in the labs. They are quite comfortable for me, though I should note that they are slightly narrower than steel-toe-boots usually are. From the top they almost remind me of Converse high-tops. After 3 days of wearing basically nothing but these, I didn't notice any discomfort, but when I switched back over to normal sneakers, my feet were like, ohhhhhh yeah.

After 9 months of use, about 25-35 hours a week. I'm buying another pair. These shoes wrap around my feet nicely, and support me very well. They're not 100% slip free, but they do grip the floor decently enough in wet/greasy conditions. At least I haven't taken a fall yet in them (knock on wood). I did have to get a half size smaller.

I really like these shoes. I am a photographer and bought them so that I could wear them with shorts or pants. They are chunky enough to handle whatever I have to walk through for an assignment. They are comfortable, although they probably don't have quite as much arch support as I would have liked. They are also probably not as dressy as I always need but I doubt most people world buy them for that.

The steel toed version of these shoes was uncomfortable, the soft toe version is top notch. After six weeks of heavy use these shoes still look new, which is shocking. Other brands that I have tried come apart at the sole after a short time, not these.

The main thing that attracted me to these steel toes was the fact that they were the least boot looking boot I could find. I'm required to have my ankle covered so when it comes to finding a pair of boots that look like shoes but are also high tops, the options are limited. So if you are in the same boat, get the wide with. I didn't and wish I did. It was a bit of a rough break in. The first and second eyelits ground into my foot every time I took a step. That went away. But, now the sole is starting to tear away from the leather where it bends when you step. I don't think they will hold up very long and they really are not very comfortable.

Bought these for landscape construction work. At first I liked them, but after awhile their heavy, bulkiness wore me out. They don't fit my feet right either, and my feet get sore after a couple hours of wearing them. No real arch support. I bought inserts to help, but after a year of avoiding these and wearing my hiking boots instead, I'm back here on zappos looking for a better pair of work boots.

I spend 14+ hours at work on my feet and was Sorely disappointed with this shoe. Blisters on my feet and not enough padding in the heal.

Nice looking shoe. Looks 'okay' with business casual attire. Not comfortable for walking/standing for any length of time. Very breathable and nice design, in my opinion.

I normally don't write reviews, but for this shoe I will. I can summon up in one word, perfect. True to size, ageless design and well made. Great job, Caterpillar.

It took a long time to break this shoe in and after breaking it in I had to put an insole in it to be able to wear it all day. I would not recommend this shoe if you are on your feet all day. It is a good looking shoe but not made for walking for long periods of time.

Awesome boots made tough for my type of work. Construction demolition. I've gone through a couple pair of boots in a month. These boots on the other hand have barely been broken in. Comfortable once they're broken in. Ankle support and arch support also awesome! All around perfect work boots!

I love these boots! Really soft and supple, and comfy right out of the box. I originally ordered them in size nine and a half (which is what I normally wear in other brands) but they were too big. I exchanged those for a pair of nines and almost sent those back as well, but after putting in a pair of Superfeet insoles, they were perfect. I live in Seattle and I use these for riding my motorcycle, so, in addition to the insoles, I tend to wear a medium weight wool sock. So, if you don't want to use an insole and/or you wear a lighter sock, buy these a full size smaller than normal.

The boot leg is to narrow for a EE width boot. Makes it super hard to get these boots on and off with wide feet.

I bought this shoe specifically because I needed a wide steel toe cap. When it arrived the shoe was the correct width but the toe cap was normal width and squeezed my toes.

These are my favorite pair of daily casual boots! I own the black leather style, and plan on getting the brown Leather style as well. I'm an avid work/combat boot collector, and have owned several brands similar to this style from Steve Madden, Aldo, Kenneth Cole, B&A to Dr. Martens. At first I was skeptical because I'm unfamiliar with Caterpillar shoes other than that I knew they are a good steel toe work boot company. I assumed they'd look clunky like most of their shoes since they're not really a designer shoe brand. Rest assure, upon the arrival of the Morrisons, I was impressed by its quality. The black leather upper in the picture does not do it justice, the leather appears to be grainy leather rather than smooth leather (other than the steel toe and heel). I really liked the design of the shoe, some might not, but to each his own. The shoes aren't clunky, and pretty narrow. It also has a nostalgic vintage look to it, and receive compliments on them all the time. Only drawbacks I could think of the is no arch support and a flat in-sole. You might want to consider getting a Dr. Scholls in-sole, but it's not required and manageable without. Some people may not deal with discomfort the same as others. And also the sole itself, it's sturdy with the rubber layer, but once that wears out, the synthetic part underneath the rubber wears out quick, so I'd recommend to not drag your feet if you fall into that habit with wearing boots. Though they're nothing compared to the quality and design of Red Wings boots, you can't complain for half the price. If you do have the cash to splurge, invest in Red Wings. Overall, I would buy again.

Not too pleased with these boots. The insole has little to no padding, only takes a short time until you feel the need to get off your feet. They seem pretty well made otherwise but I hope they wear out soon so I can try some other brand.

A bit stiff, but they do have steel toes; seem very rugged. I wear a EEEE size -- not many good boots available in my size. If only shoe companies would make more shoes that run in widths!

I am reviewing this as a work boot. They were pretty comfortable and true to size. I really liked that they weren't too manly for those of us that have to wear steel toes but have feet that differ from men's feet. I ultimately had to return them because the sole was so shallow. They felt more like walking shoes on the bottom. I was looking to use them on a construction site and wouldn't feel comfortable around nails, etc with how thin they felt. So, if that's not what you'll be using them for, they may work great.

These boots are awesome. Exactly what I wanted. I also received them really fast on basic shipping. I wonder if I paid for express would they have been here before I ordered them?

These shoes are fantastic. A bit heavy because of the toe - obviously, but a great alternative to a bigger, clumsy shoe. I only wish the Hi-top version had been in stock

I bought these particular boots in this particular color because it was the one on sale. Little did I know that I would absolutely love these boots! The color is awesome and goes well with almost everything! The build is sturdy and feels good on my feet. I walk about three miles to work every day and I have not had a single problem with these boots!
