Very comfy and durable

"I’ve been wearing the lineman extreme for the last few months and I love them they are very light and comfortable I’ve climbed in them dozens of times on some occasions I’ve been in my hooks for over a hour or more and are very comfortable with the shank no complaints"

— Toby D. (5/5)

Buy again and again

"These boots are of high quality. Feel light weight, fit comfortably from the time on. Whether you’re walking on flat ground or steep drain, they offer great stability and traction. I love the way they fit around my ankle and give it good support especially on those long days. The toe space is great gives enough room to wear thicker sock during those cold days! These have become my go to boots for work, hunting and casual hiking."

— Barbrar O. (5/5)

Best work boots ever

"I love these boots my feet stay dry all day and don’t get sore. I am constantly beating the heck out them in and out of trenches doing everything from underground power to overhead. The only time they come off my feet during the day is when I pour concrete to encase all the duct packs we are installing. When I wear the soles out I will definitely be sending in for a rebuild and get another new pair so I have multiple pairs to wear."

My boots are starting to

"My boots are starting to break in and become more comfortable every day. I was surprised in the difference in fit between my mountain guide boots and these boots. I recommend trying on before purchase. This is my second pair as the first pair had to be returned due to leather issues. Great job Kenetrek warranty team. . . hopefully the issue is resolved."
