Customer Reviews for Journey (E) Brown (Male/Senior)
5 / 5 Stars
February 22, 2026I have just brought my second pair. The first pair lasted 12 months before the zipper gave way and the boot started to lose its waterproof feature. The fact that they were worn on average 12 hours everyday on farm throughout summer and winter always giving a comfortable and supportive fit was pretty impressive. With the wide fit I can comfortably pop in my orthotics supports and my bunions don't play up! Customer service is always fantastic and items purchased promptly dispatched. Highly recommend.

January 30, 2025I’ve had the pleasure of wearing these boots for the past 18 months, putting them through around 100-150 days of yard work. As a podiatrist, I can confidently say these boots are a good choice for anyone in need of a comfortable, general-purpose boot. Not only do I recommend them to my patients regularly, but my dad has since picked up two pairs himself! The comfort level is impressive — I’ve worn them for long hours with no complaints. The soles have held up remarkably well, showing very little wear despite frequent use. The only hiccup I experienced was the zipper breaking on one of the boots, but I was able to have it repaired by the boot maker for a reasonable $45. Overall, the boots are still in great condition and i feel will continue to serve me well. For the price, comfort, and longevity, I’d definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a reliable pair of farm boots.
