I was a little disappointed to see they didn't use one major factor in boot deterioration. Water!

Nice boots but I wouldnt spend that much on boots...I will stick with combat boots

I like that gear lab tests products but I wish that they would test things that the average person can afford. I mean I don’t know about everyone else but spending 130 dollars on a pair of boots is out of my price range let alone 200 +.
