Eastland Men's Lumber Up Fashion Boot

I went five miles out of the box, today. These boots feel broke in already, and are ultra light, and very comfortable. Very much like the soles. Update, shoes still working great, leather strap sewn on tongue for laces broke on both boots. Meh, still nice summer boots.

Hands down my All Time Favorite BOOTS!!! They're light weight, comfortable and very attractive looking. These boots fit to the T. And the durability is superb, lasts many years!

The Eastland Lumber Up Fashion Boot has a classic, timeless look with its rich peanut leather finish, making it perfect for both casual and semi-formal wear. Despite its sturdy build, the boot is surprisingly comfortable right out of the box. The cushioned insole provides excellent support, even for long hours of walking. No pinching or discomfort. The full-grain leather upper and durable rubber outsole give the boots a solid, high-quality feel. They hold up well against daily wear and tear. Unlike some boots that require a lengthy break-in period, these are comfortable from day one.

I don’t have anything really negative to say about this product, just some key points that may be important to you as I didn’t think of them until the first day I put them on. These reasons in no way make me want to return them as they’re a really nice boot for the money. 1. No Achilles heel pull. Personally putting on any boots, this helps a lot. It’s a pain to try an fit your fingers between the rear upper collar and wedge your heel into the boot. 2. Oxblood coloring will bleed, be aware. The color is super nice and rich. The leather is treated and colored well, however it will stain white socks until they break in. 3. The sole wears easy. I’ve owned multiple shoes made with the white “Goodyear Welt” style sole. This is the only pair I’ve owned that I’ve visibly seen the rubber roll and fall off after I scrubbed it on concrete. I don’t feel like they’ll last super long, however they are comfortable after walking around in them for a day.

As the time of this writing, the Redwings 6-inch moc-toe boot is all the rage. If you're getting these strictly for style, these are virtually identical to the Redwings as far as the look, and for a third of the price. My issue with the Redwings is the close to $300 price tag (which I can afford but can't stomach) and the fact that they take 2-4 months to break in, which I don't have the patience or wherewithal for. They're also a heavy boot. These Eastland boots are well made, comfortable, affordable, true to size, and there's minimal break in. It's a soft leather that's comfortable right out of the box. They look fantastic with jeans or khakis, especially with a slim or tapered leg opening. You'll lose out on the aesthetics with "Dad jeans." Again, if wearing strictly as a casual boot for style, this is a great bet. For actual construction work or the like, Redwings might be a better choice.

I've had these boots for 9 weeks, I loved the fit but they wore out so fast. I'm super disappointed.

Was looking for a lightweight boot that I could wear casually without dropping hundreds. This boot fit the bill perfectly. Ordered my usual size in "wide" and they fit great. Soles are very soft and will probably wear quickly but are very comfortable. I loved the peanut color but didn't care for the waxy finish and burnished toe/heal. Simply scrubbed boots with brush, water and saddle soap and they came out even colored and great. This also helped soften the leather and mold to my feet more.

I haven't worn boots in a while and was a little hesitant. But these boots are so comfortable it's almost like wearing sneakers. I was blown away! I was expecting them to be a little oversized and clunky but actually the exact opposite. Hopefully this "comfort" doesn't mean the won't last a while. The ONLY drawback is I bought 10 Wide shoes and they were a LITTLE snug, not as wide as I'd hoped. But definitely wearable without even being broken in. Maybe I should have gone up one size but nothing worth exchanging them over. So if you want WIDE, you may want to investigate a bit further. But if you want a boot you can actually walk around in and not look forward to taking off, these may be it!
