Ever Boots Men's 6" Tank Work Boot

Ok, so I just received these earlier this week.Wore them in the office all day today - so other than walking down the lane - I haven't used them outside.I decided to try them because of the price point and the reviews.The non-waterproof description is not unexpected - you're not going to get Gore-tex at this price! So I just did what a lot of people have done & applied a good coat of mink oil. It darkened them up nicely and seemed to absorb it well, so hopefully that will help with keeping the water at bay. We'll see, and I'll post an update after some more use.**UPDATE**So I have had these almost 60 days now & we just had a 12" snow storm. I wore these boots exclusively for a week outside in the snow AND inside the office for 8 hours a day and I have to say I am impressed with them! As stated above, I coated them quite liberally with mink oil since they are not advertised as "waterproof" and I was hoping that would help - and it definitely did! Now - I have not fully immersed them in water, but I have been out in the snow for hours at a time & they have not allowed any moisture in. In the office, they were not uncomfortable to have on all day & since they are newer, they still look presentable!Bottom line, don't be afraid to try them! The price point might make you suspicious, but to me theyy are a great boot at a great price. NOW - I do not make a living doing construction or heavy work all day in a boot. If that is you - and you have had experience with other high-end work boots - then you may have a different opinion and I fully understand that. But for the "weekend warrior" who needs a decent boot at a decent price, these really work for me.
