I have had them since 2015, they are heavy, generally warm, after many hours of use they are quite tiring and especially in walking conditions.
For small jumps and hops, the sole is good. For the last 6 months, I have retired them from operational use and use them more for earthworks and construction work (rebar-concrete rods). They are not suitable for mud because the sole fills up and they stick, becoming unbearably heavy.
Generally, they are very durable, compared to safety shoes, walking on oil they do not slip at all!
I have really put them through a lot and now they are starting to tear inside and outside, after 16 years and more.
Note that I expected the sole to split from all the bending but it hasn't shown any signs of damage. The sole underneath is barely worn.
I am now thinking of buying them again.
The downside is that they are very heavy as I mentioned before..

The most useless thing out there. Heavy and zero comfort. Average build quality. Lasted about 2 years

After 3 years of daily use, I can say that the boot is quite average.
POSITIVES:
- sturdy feel and nice appearance
- durability in terms of the leather parts
- warm with thick socks in cold conditions
- the zipper
NEGATIVES:
- Too heavy for prolonged use
- Quite hard even with gel insoles
- Front opened in the first two months, opened in 2-3 spots within six months, and the stitching opened after 3 years
- The tongue of the boot is not waterproof and leaks water
- Not suitable for summer
- The laces are elastic and easily come undone on their own
TIP:
- Definitely go for a smaller size

Very good boots, durable and resistant to mud, dirt, etc. The downside is their weight and the fact that they are hard at first. For at least 3 months, they were hard to walk in for me. The first 3 years with daily hard use, they didn't show any signs of wear. The remaining years, with more gentle use, they were still perfect. With a good polish, they gradually soften. I had to replace them after 6 years of use because the soles melted. And I bought the same ones again. Minus one star for the weight and initial comfort.

Very good boots.....I have had them for 3 years, wearing them every day for work and with training in between, and they are still like new.
Of course, everything needs its care

Terrible boots for their price. If they costed 70 euros, maybe they would be a good choice. They fell apart in less than a year.

I wonder, guys, how you give it 5 stars... I am a rescuer and the boots fell apart like rags in the first four months. I bought them for the winter and from the first call I went on, they got soaked. The other person writes that they have had them for 5 years... Do you wear them in the closet or on a walk, my friend? Don't waste your money on them, throw them in the trash, you will regret your money.

I have had them for almost 3 years and they have held up very well and I still wear them. Similarly priced Magnum boots had opened up from everywhere and had holes on top. They are not completely waterproof and may slip a little on wet marble. The silicone system it has on the bottom under the heel is very good. Pay attention to the size because while I wear a size 44 in Nike, I got the Bates in size 42 and they are very comfortable.

Very good boots. I have them for 4 years and I wear them almost every day. They don't slip and they are both warm and very comfortable. I recommend them!
