I recently switched from rubber to leather boots, and let me tell you, it was the best decision i have made! These boots fit to your foot like a tennis shoe. Not only are they comfortable, but they stand up to the challege that we as firefighters put them through on a day to day basis.
Just make sure you get the boots with the shanks in the upper part of the boot. Helps to keep them standing up and also to keep them inside your pants leg.
This is one of the best boots ive ever worn!!! yes it my be a little pricey but you get what you pay for. So if you want a boot that will last, hold up to whatever, and still like you are wearing a comfortable pair of hunting boots.
I have owned several pairs of boots trying to find the right ones for the job, being a farm boy growing up milking cows and such i have worn more rubber boots than any man should have to but the leather Thorogood boots are the best thing i have ever invested in they are just like wearing a pair of sneakers I have spent countless hours in them one night we had a fire and it was a bigun pallet company fully involved prior to the dispatch and i spent over 14 hours with no socks on and didn't have a single blister it was great if i could get my fire house to buy them for everyone i would.
these boots are a god send in the winter i have never had my feet stay so warm on a fire call
