Default Milwaukee Boots

Are they any good? Thinking of getting a pair and with the costs of a good pair so high I don't want to have to replace them next summer. They stand up to a lot of use?

Thanks for the opinions.

I have a pair, and have stood up very well over the past five season's.
Actually, nice and broken in now.

The styles are identical to Harley boots. Wolverine makes HD boots and I would not be surprised if they make the Milwaukee ones too. Either way its a good boot IMO.

I have a pair of troopers with zippers and the one zipper went bad shortley after a few months. They replaced the boots per factory rep. They are the flex fit one's and feel great from the beginning. Make sure you keep your reciept.

I have the old fashion engineer boots from them. Great boots, super comfy and tough wearing. I treated them with mink oil so now their water resistant too.
I just don't like that their made in China.

Thanks Shooter and Chunker, not familiar with either of those, I'll do some googling.
