Title: Garbage.
Review: Don't waste your time. The construction seems traditional, but the boot is extremely poor quality in terms of craftsmanship and materials. When I unpacked them they were attracting lint particles in a way I've never seen and the odor coming from the boot wasn't a leather smell, but a rather unpleasant rubber smell... like a really old tire, or something treated with chemicals. The so-called leather sure didn't feel like leather and I was too disgusted to even try them on. I've owned more than several pairs of Engineer boots over the last 30 years and these are the worst I've ever seen, although by today's low, low standards with everything made in China I'm sure you could do worse than these boots from Carolina. Just ordered the Chippewa steel toe Engineer and its eligible for free return if they are bad, but somehow I get the feeling the Chippewa's will be better than this. This Carolina boot is the first item I've ever returned and the first 1 star review I've ever submitted.
