Redback Boots USBBKSC “Easy Escape” Steel Toe Scuff Cap – Black

I'm a marine diesel mechanic, mostly on crew boats and offshore supply vessels. These have been my go-to boots for the last 12 years. I'll admit I tried other brands but no other boot comes close to the comfort and durability right out of the box. The insoles are cheap they do not last long in my line of work but there are plenty of insoles to choose from. They are Australian boots and sized so normally I wear a 9.5 but in redback I wear an 8.5. My last 2 pairs I was able to get close to 3 years out of them and only because after 3 years of diesel, sweat, and other chemicals getting on them they were smelling pretty bad, i still use them for yard work. Hands down best boots ever.

Ordering boots online is always a gamble. The actual boots are fantastic, but it took two attempts. Redback sizing can get confusing, but in this case the seller clearly labeled that they were US sizes, which was confirmed when I received the box. I have wide feet, but went with standard witdth and ordered an 11 (the size of my existing boots and the majority of all my shoes) It's hard to estimate exact length, due to the steel toe, but I had a full thumb-width extra behind my heel. A 10US seems to be the ideal fit. So unless you already have a pair of Redbacks, I would tend to go down a full size.

The best boots out there, they just take a while to break in.

Great boots. Day one was not so comfortable, but after getting used to them, I love them.

This is the first pair of steel toe redbacks for me. The break in period is way longer in my opinion than the non steel toe, almost to the point of trying to return them. I toughed it out and they do break in. Some people say boots should be comfortable right away, in my experience those boots never last as long as these do. They're amazingly comfortable after the break in peroid. I wear them in a mechanic shop daily and also use for hiking hunting etc.. They look good maintain shape well and clean up nice.

Water some how gets in. But otherwise it does it’s job and is super comfortable. Would buy another pair!

Great pair off work boots, absolutely fits perfect. No break in process required for it. Enough room for your feet to move around in, your toes aren’t squeezing in it like standers work boots.

Don't waste your money. These boots are worthless, my feet were absolutely killing me after day 3 of wearing these boots at work. I even have the $30 Redback insoles to go with them. Since they got banged up from the 3 days at work, i cant even return them either. So im just screwed out of $200 with nothing but these worthless boots in my closet. Bought some Timerland Pros, no more foot pain. Cost half the price too.
