Boots seemed to fit initially when I wore them around the house. They are stiff, but that is normal for quality boots. After the first day wearing them at work, my feet were killing me and my toes were blistered from the hard toe sides. Knowing that they weren't returnable after wear and tear, I continued to wear them hoping they would break in and my feet would adjust. After a week, they are still terribly uncomfortable and continue to cause issues with my toes. Hoping the returns department will make an exception and let me return the boots as I cannot continue to wear them with the amount of discomfort I am experiencing.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding our THE WILTON 8" STEEL TOE WORK BOOT - BIG LUG. We sincerely apologize for the extremely uncomfortable experience you've had with these boots, particularly the ongoing pain and blistering issues that have persisted even after a week of wear.
We understand how frustrating and painful it is when work boots that initially seem to fit properly become a source of daily discomfort and injury to your feet. The toe blistering and continued pain you're experiencing after giving the boots time to break in is concerning and not representative of the comfort and functionality we strive to deliver. As an American manufacturer, we take great pride in creating work boots that protect and support hardworking individuals throughout their day, and this falls short of the performance and comfort we aim to provide.
While we recognize that quality work boots require a break-in period, they should never cause the level of ongoing discomfort and injury you've described. Your specific feedback about the hard toe sides causing blistering and the persistent pain issues is valuable information that will be shared with our footwear development team to help improve our boot design and fit specifications.
We will be reaching out to you in a separate email to discuss this further.

I wore these boots for about 2.5 years before they finally wore out. Which is great. I wear out most boots in less than a year. They were also the most comfortable shoe I owned. They felt great. Unfortunately, the sole separated from the boot (the stitching tore). So time for new ones!

I’ve tried a lot of different brands in the past few years with no luck. Really liked all the products I’ve owned from Origin along with “dress” boots so I decided to try work boots. After about 2 months they’ve already started falling apart and they leak.

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback regarding our THE WILTON 8" STEEL TOE WORK BOOT - BIG LUG.
While we appreciate your positive assessment of the boots' initial comfort and your trust in our brand based on previous experiences, we are truly disappointed to learn about the significant durability issues you've encountered. Having the boots begin to deteriorate after just two months of use clearly falls short of the robust performance and reliability you rightfully expected from our work boots.
We understand how frustrating it must be to invest in premium work boots, especially after struggling to find the right fit with other brands, only to face premature wear and compromised functionality. This experience does not align with the long-lasting durability our work boots should deliver, particularly for those who depend on them daily.
While we strive to deliver products worthy of your investment and trust, we recognize that these boots have not met our standards for durability and weather resistance. Your feedback about both the comfort and the performance issues will help inform our improvement efforts in future product development.
We will be reaching out to you in a separate email to address these concerns.

Yes they’re expensive. Also incredibly comfortable, I purchased the wide so plenty of room for toes The biggest plus for me is no insulation. My feet get crazy hot so I love the fact it’s leather on the sides and that’s it. Honestly great boots I love ‘em

We're thrilled that you've highlighted the comfort and specifically called out the benefits of the non-insulated design - this kind of practical feedback is invaluable. It's fantastic to hear how the wide option provided that crucial toe room you were looking for, and that the simple leather construction is serving your needs for temperature regulation.
