Review: Without Any Equivocation, These Boots are the Best Workshoes I've Ever Owned. - Due to the fact that I have serious Neuropathy in both feet, and my left foot is larger than my right foot, I'm always hesitant to purchase shoes or boots--any shoes or boots. And, I'm even more hesitant to purchase work boots without having the opportunity to first try them. So, it was with great trepidation that I purchased this pair of Caterpillar Work Boots. Nevertheless, I just sort of "let it rip." Once the Caterpillar Work Boots arrived, I tried them on, and wore them inside my house. Obviously, I figured if the fit was less-than-acceptable, or they hurt my feet, I'd simply box them up and return them to desertcart. Amazingly, not only did they NOT hurt my feet, they fit spectacularly well; and they were even comfortable. Now, I've purchased far-too-many pairs of work boots throughout my life to even attempt to keep count, and NEVER have I ever had a pair of work boots fit as well as the Caterpillar Work Boots. They are simply amazing--I have no other way to describe them. Since receiving these Caterpillar Work Boots back in February 2020, I've worn them a number of times; and when I've worn them, I've had them on for an extended period of hours. I'm serious when I say these Caterpillar Work Boots are even more comfortable than any of my New Balance athletic shoes. Due to my severe Neuropathy, my Podiatrist suggested that I wear New Balance athletic shoes. New Balance athletic shoes are supposed to be "the poor man's answer to severe Neuropathy." And, I do agree that they ARE for "poor men"; I wear New Balance athletic shoes because my Podiatrist wanted to sell me a pair of custom-maid Diabetic shoes at the very pricey sum of $1,050.00 (one thousand fifty dollars, and zero cents). Since my health insurance plan will not cover the custom made Diabetic shoes, and custom-made insoles (i.e.; inserts), also at the extremely pricey sum of $450.00 (four hundred fifty dollars, and zero cents), I'm on-my-own for modalities. Well, heck, wearing the Caterpillar Work Boots is so comfortable I just might make them my "everyday shoes." After all I'm a resident of deep-south southwestern North Carolina, way up in the Blue Ridge Mountains, so around these here-parts, the Caterpillar Work Boots just might be considered "very down-home; and very, very stylish." Y'all never know! But, I'd definitely recommend these Caterpillar Work Boots: they're very comfortable; exceptionally durable (they haven't even begun to show the slightest bit of wear); they have a great safety track record; and they're quite affordable. And, if you doubt me about the "affordable" part of my review, just check the prices on some of the competitor's work boots. You'll be shocked! The Caterpillar Work Boots are definitely deserving of Five Stars!
Review: Great boot - Great fit. Fast delivery. I took off a star for the uncomfortableness of the boot. It takes a bit to break in and are not high enough for my liking. It’s just my opinion on comfort. Otherwise great boot. Great seller!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's 10 D(M) mean?**
A: D ( M ) in mens shoes means it's a medium width. Medium is the standard width for most shoes/boots. If you have any other questions you can always call Orthoticshop. We are open Mon-Fri 9-5pm Est. 800-309-0412. :)

**Q: What C/D means?**
A: C/D would mean a WOMAN's WIDE shoe.  This would be narrow for a men's shoe.  Men's standard width is D
Measured width as a letter (or combination of letters), which is taken from a table (indexed to length and width) or just assigned on an ad-hoc basis: Examples are (each starting with the narrowest width):
A, B, C, D, E, EE, EEE, EEEE, F, G (typical North American system, with the unlettered norm being D for men and B for women)
4A, 3A, 2A, A, B, C, D, E, 2E, 3E, 4E, 5E, 6E (variant North American)

**Q: Are these boots waterproof, Electric Hazard rated and Puncture resistant?**
A: They sure are water proof no doubt about that  as for puncture resistant they can hold there own as well I've stepped on nails glass and a couple of broken pipes and I've yet to feel anything...one of my Co-Workers even dropped a 25Ib. block of cement and my foot survived without a scratch.

**Q: Are these waterproof?**
A: So far they have kept me dry in rain and 2" or less water. I haven't submerged them so unsure just how waterproof they are.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Pair of Boots I’ve Ever Owned
*by C***Y on October 31, 2017*

So I bought these boots a couple weeks ago after doing much research online trying to figure out which steel toe brands and styles were the most comfortable, as I HATE steel toe (they are always so uncomfortable on my toes) but I needed them for a job. The 2nd Shift were one of the boots that had the highest rating, so naturally, I decided to give them a shot. My original order came fast but didn’t fit as expected since I had mistakenly ordered the medium fit instead of wide fit because I have big, dumb feet. I ended up calling Amazon and had no trouble getting my money back and the order returned. I was credited the amount and used that to get the wide fit version and HOLY CRAP these boots are AMAZING. After walking around in them for a few min, they felt just the right amount of worn in and fit like a glove! The construction is definitely solid, you can tell just by looking at them. They’re water/oil slip and shock resistant and are easy on your feet. I can’t even feel the steel toe, which is just fantastic. The leather is hard and stands up to punishment. They don’t look ugly either, like a standard work boot I feel proud to wear. My only warning is make sure you order a size to half a size smaller than what you would normally get. I say this because I tried them on in a store before ordering them online to get a feel for them. I didn’t buy them from the store because they didn’t have the color I needed for my job (black.) I usually wear a 10/10.5 but for these, the 9.5 were perfect. From what I see from other reviews, these bad boys last a year or more if you wear them on a daily basis. I guess we’ll see how long they last, as I can assure you I’d buy them again if they went that long. I’ll be coming back to Caterpillar.
