So far I'm going to start out with a 5 star! Honestly I just got the boots a few minutes ago. First impressions are very high!
Box from Thorogood has an American flag on it. I know this has no relevance to the boots fit/construction, but I smiled like a small child opening a package on Xmas. God bless America!
I will say that I have a long, flat, narrow foot. For those men out there who share my pain of trying to find B width boots, you know our options are very limited. I've been through 8 pairs of red wings, and countless other brands. My favorite pair of red wings are not made anymore, so again I hit the internet to find something I won't die in after working 12+ hours a day.
I wear a 12 B in red wings, and ordered the same in these Thorogoods. My first impression was they might be a little long, but definitely couldn't go down 1/2 a size. So I'd say they are fairly true to size. These are the first pair I've ordered that aren't steel toe, so I can't compare with my other boots since I can't check to see where my toe truly sits in my steel toes.
As far as the narrow width, I'd say it's spot on. If you have narrow feet you know that all boots look a little funky when laced tightly since the gap between the two halves is generally pretty close together. Unfortunately, that has not changed in these boots. Honestly I don't care what they look like, so long as they fit. Little bit snug around the pinky toe area and the widest part of my foot, but that is fine in new boots. They will stretch, and I'd rather they be a little snug, than too loose and blistery.
The soles and construction/stitching all seems to be very similar to what you'd expect from any other real mans work boot. My ariats, red wings, and now these, are all pretty similar. The color is ok I guess. Honestly I wish they made a black boot with a dark sole since I'm a mechanic. The red is going to be dark red and the white sole is going to be black over the next week anyway, so I guess I shouldn't complain.
I will continue to wear these and update this review down the road a bit when I've had a real chance to give them hell at the shop. So far I'd say if you're on the fence about laying down a days worth of pay on some red wings, you might want to order these and take the old lady out for some Big Macs instead. If you have narrow feet like me, these are a very highly recommended boot, and now I'm seeing why.
Update: After wearing these every other day (I alternate boots), these have broken in very well. Soles are of course no longer white, and the orange of the leather has darkened with daily exposure to oil. They’ve molded to my feet pretty well. The one thing I have noticed is that my right boot, on the outer edge of my foot just before the pinky toe, does rub where the edges of all the stitching meets. Isn’t so bad it causes a blister, but when you wear them all day, it definitely turns my skin red and a bit sore. Not sure what the fix would be, but they’re well broken in, so it’s either just a defect in this boot, or my right foot is weird. Never experienced this with any other boot brands, so I’m guessing it’s the boot itself.
The soles are extremely comfortable and these boots are nice and light. I work easy 12 hrs a day, and these are still my favorites. Minus the one spot that rubs, I get home and my feet aren’t tired. Concrete can do a number on you after a long day, but these boots sure help with that.

MAXWear
True to our Job-Fitted heritage, Thorogood collaborated with Ironworkers, Boilermakers, Electricians, and safety directors to create an outsole for every jobsite. Over the course of two years we worked to develop our exclusive MAXWear outsole that outlasts the competition by 30%. We started with the MAXWear Wedge, and through its proven performance in the field and demand from safety directors for a heeled sole we created the MAXWear 90. Both the MAXWear Wedge and MAXWear 90 offer superior comfort and durability on the job compared to the competition. Feel the comfort in every trusted step with our MAXWear Wedge and put your trust in the MAXWear 90 when climbing ladders or uneven terrain. Thorogood MAXWear outsoles have you covered.
Our Made in USA footwear is either Berry Compliant (100% Made in the USA with USA components) or Made in the USA with domestic and globally sourced components.
