Tried to describe the differences between my first pair (original work boots) & these (wiltons) in my review of the big lugs. AI cust serv decided they were all compliments, which they are not. The longer I wear the wiltons, the more I notice the complete lack of arch support. The original work boots have (had - they're apparently discontinued) great arch support. My OGs had a tongue that was a little short & the toe box was a bit snug. Those were minor issues, one of which was fixed by ordering a half size bigger. The junk liner, thinner leather, missing arch support, and customer service bot that thinks repeating your words back to you is good grammar all make me disappointed with this second purchase.

Thought i was ordering my second pair of unlined boots. First pair was size 11 EE and the toe was a little snug. Good for 1 pair of socks but too snug for 2 pairs like in the winter. So I ordered 11.5 EE. they showed up with a liner. Been trying to return then for almost a week now. Customer service doesnt return calls. Not very prompt with answering emails either, so here we are. Too bad too, because the size 11 are good boots. Tongue could be a little longer so it doesnt work down under the laces thru the day, but they're solid boots made from nice thick leather. Customer service needs some work though, apparently. Boots get 4 stars, CS gets a 2.

I’ve bought lots of things from origin from sweaters to pants, and now boots. It’s been a week I’ve worn them now, and they seem to be holding up. The only complaint I have is that the left boots feels great, but the steel cap on the right boot feel off, or bent. When I walk it my foot rubs against it, and it causes some minor discomfort

Thanks for the detailed feedback about THE WILTON 8" STEEL TOE WORK BOOT - ALPHA and for being such a loyal customer across our different product lines! We're glad that you're seeing good durability after your first week of wear and that the left boot feels great.
We sincerely appreciate you bringing up the specific issue with the steel cap in the right boot feeling off or bent and causing discomfort when you walk. Your description of the difference between how the left and right boots feel gives us valuable insight into potential quality control issues in our steel toe construction that we need to address, especially since both boots should provide the same comfortable protection.
We also appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback after just one week of wear, as catching construction inconsistencies early helps us understand how our boots are performing right out of the box and ensures we're delivering the reliable comfort and protection that customers expect from our work boots.
Thank you for your valuable input about the steel cap positioning and comfort differences between boots. This helps us focus on maintaining consistent construction quality across both boots in each pair, so customers get the reliable performance they need from their safety footwear!

These are very comfortable right out of the box. Very little break-in needed. Durability remains to be seen, early indications are that these will be a long lasting boot. Love the Vibram soles.
The Origin American manufacturing commitment is a large reason for this purchase. Keep American manufacturing alive!

I have a wide foot and purchased a size 12 wide. The steel toe seems to be from a regular width boot as it digs into the outside of my toes. The quality of the boots is amazing and they get compliments on every job site I go on, but very painful to wear. The only thing I could think to recommend would be a wider or more flared open steel toe.

We're thrilled that the quality is meeting your expectations and that you're getting compliments on every job site. That's exactly what we want to hear about our boots in action.
We really appreciate your honest feedback about the steel toe fit with your wide foot. Your insight about the steel toe seeming to be sized for a regular-width boot rather than scaling properly with the wide sizing is incredibly valuable information for our product development team as we continue to evaluate our steel toe construction and how it integrates with our different width offerings.
Thanks for being part of the Origin Family and for this comprehensive feedback that helps us continue improving our products!
