Cat FootwearCat Footwear Men's Freedom Pull on Steel Toe Construction Boot

Recomendable este tipo de calzado, sus punteras de seguridad son cómodas.

Me gustaron, son cómodos. Solo que vienen mas grande de la talla que dicen ser. Normalmente calzo del 10 mexicano pero vienen como si fueran 11.

I purchased these shoes as I work in an office environment where I program CNC machines, but I frequent our shop floor where steel toed shoes are required. I wanted something that looks nice, but fills my need of steel toes, and I feel that this product fits that bill, but with some flaws.This said, there are some issues, if not worked around would make these shoes unwearable for me. First, they ran quite big on me and because of this rubbed aggressively on my heels. A half size smaller could solve this issue for most. Second, like others who have posted here, they were quite painful on my ankles. I have not had a pair of shoes hurt my ankles that I can ever remember. I do have some discomfort when I walk, as the steel toe digs in slightly where my toes meet my foot. I have this problem with pretty much every steel toe product I buy, so I can't really fault this product for that.To circumvent my problems with these shoes, I purchased a pair of heavy duty inserts. The inserts virtually eliminated my issues. The inserts made the shoes fit a little more snug to make up for the discrepancy in size. This solved about 90% of my complaints with regards to rubbing on the heels. Secondly, the inserts elevated my foot which completely eliminated the rubbing on my ankles.In conclusion, I love the style of the shoe. It seems well made in craftsmanship. That said, there are some significant issues that prevent me from highly recommending these shoes as they are.That said, placing some inserts into these would bring my review up to a 4 star, but because I had to do it and make the extra purchase, I am holding at a 3. If you buy a half size smaller, you may have better luck, but you may not have room for inserts that may still be needed to fix some other issues.

After reading some reviews I had some doubts about whether these shoes would fit right. I ordered these in the size I normally wear and crossed my fingers. I will say that they do feel roomy, but not to the point that others have noted on their own reviews(just speaking for my own experience) where I felt that I might need to return them for a half size smaller.Thankfully these shoes felt fine out of the box and the initial break in period has been pretty smooth unlike my last pair of work shoes that were just like these but without the steel toe, something that my new job required.I work in a lab for a food production company and sometimes need to go down to the production floor to do some work and in that regard these shoes fit the bill perfectly. Add to it that there are no laces which could become a potential hazard and I couldn't think of a more ideal style of shoes then these imo.As I alluded to earlier these shoes are great for lab/manufacturing type work to include maintenance type work. Where I would think to look elsewhere would be if you're doing heavy duty construction or something along those lines. Overall though these shoes are comfortable, feel very sturdy and can see them lasting for a long time.

These are my third pair of CAT shoes. Size is perfect, comfort is everything I was hoping it would be. Just distinct enough to be different without trying to be cool, these steel toe, water and oil proof all weather shoes are perfect without compromising on the looks. CAT is also probably in the top 3 shoemakers when it comes to the weight, despite the steel toes I don't feel weighed down, rather they simply help me do my job better.
