Positives:
Very comfortable boot which feels more like a tennis shoe on the foot than a combat boot. These boots keep my feet from getting sweaty but don't let in a lot of moisture if you're in a wet environment. I have had these boots for almost two years now and I have had zero problems out of them. I wore them when I deployed to Iraq and I am extremely glad that I had them.
Negatives:
The Oakley logo on my pair is a subdued logo which appears to just be stamped into the leather on the outer heel, this logo quickly fades from view as the boots are broken in. This could be viewed as a positive or a negative, and I believe this has changed in the latest model.
Overall:
These boots lose marks on price despite the fact I think the quality makes up for it.
I give these boots a 9 out of 10.
