Wolverine Floorhand BETTER THAN TIMBERLANDS - unboxing and review -

In my last review, I tried on a pair of Timberland Premium 6 inch boots and they had a design flaw that dug into my ankles. Then I found these Wolverine Floorhand 6 inch Waterproof Soft Toe work boots and I fell in love. I ordered them on Amazon and they are so comfortable. No painful digging into my ankles. They almost look as good as a fresh pair of Timbs, but for half the price.
I've had these for a few months now and mostly use them on the job site. I can stand about 3-4hrs comfortably, and by the 7-8th hour, they start to hurt. Keyword "start". They aren't the most comfortable boot ever invented, but they are very comfortable.
They don't however breath as good as I had hoped. After a few hours, your feet will sweat into the boot and because they are waterproof, the moisture cannot escape. They work great at the ranch. It's usually wet or muddy, and none has ever seeped into my boots. When I get home, I grab a water hose and wash them off, and they always end up looking as good as new.
I'm still really happy with these boots. They are available on Amazon (#AD). As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

I’ve been wearing Wolverine boots a great many years, and have always been satisfied with them.

[@satyamkarki1675]

nice and honest review man.. was really helpful.

[@bigdawg1872]

Ive got that exact pair, had em 4 about 9mon. As an auto mechanic always moving around and scuffs shoes, these boots hold up overwhelming well. They comfortable af 2💯💯

[@DroBreez0]

once you see that red and black box... you know it's gonna be 🔥

[@risingwarrior9937]

I just bought a new pair for $50. My co worker said he bought them too big. I like the look & feel.

[@johnbrandonberg4257]

I just received a pair of Harley Davidson Boots that I ordered. After I ordered a few days ago I learned that Wolverine makes some Harley boots. So I have ordered this boot without knowing. The only difference is it has a different sole and it has Harley Davidson badging instead of Wolverine. The laces are the same. Lol

[@petercookies5302]

These are my everyday work boots (auto repair) and I share your thoughts exactly, pretty much. I've also had Timberlands in the past for casual wear and had the same issue with rubbing, drove me insane. The Wolverines are not perfect (insoles wear out fast, outsole develops holes after ~a year or so, laces never stayed tied for me so I swapped them out for better ones), but for the price they can't be beat. For me, no break-in period and that's worth all the minor issues. If they wear out, you can buy two more pairs and still save money over buying the first pair of RWs. I'm on my third pair!

[@deathtohumanity1594]

I'm just entering the field of becoming an auto technician your comment and inspires me thank you

[@RyanKing9610]

Are they slip resistant though? I work in a plant around chemicals and when some spill it gets slippery.

[@petercookies5302]

@@RyanKing9610 never had a problem with slippage, but I work on concrete floors so I can't speak to coated floors. I've since moved on to Irish Setters, a little more than the Wolverines but a massive step up in durability, worth checking out those too! (Hopkins model)

[@dentonthornton241]

Just got mine couple days ago had to get some thicker insoles and there comfortable hope they’ll still keep making these

[@AdrieCruz]

What kind of insoles and where did you purchase the insoles? TIA

[@Benjamin-tw1gw]

Thanks im used to heavy duty boots and amazon is paying for them. My coworkers all got new balance sneakers but i know better to have ankle support when jumping out of vans and need Superior grip. Boots are just better yeah they're a bit heavier but being in good shape and having good ($40+) insoles help so much

[@leeiacovelli912]

Good review, I just bought a pair, I do landscaping in phoenix. I hope they work out for me.

[@bird2002]

Thank you. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I have.

[@jupiter452]

I have a similar pair, at first they were good. High quality leather, full soul stitching, and great look. Then, I got sore spots on my ankles sides of my feet after a while. The issue persisted then got some dr. Scholls work insoles, I have not had an issue since. Super comfortable with the crawling and lifting I do for work. I had bought a $50 pair of boots prior from Walmart and those soles literally split in half at the soul after a month... 3x the price for the boots but I've already gotten 10x the usage. Only complaint is the break in time, 9/10

[@YourMomIsAFatty69]

Dude this is the second video I’ve read this same exact comment

[@placeholdername3206]

Just ordered these for $39. Was the last pair they had in stock, lucky it was in my size. These are normally tripple that, in my country. I've always worn Tim's in the past, but I can't justify the price anymore

[@raulaldape6522]

anyone know how plush the insole is? i have a pair of the chainhand model and it has a pretty cushiony sole, wanna get them in black but they don’t have any sizes anywhere but found this model and just want the same feel inside. thanks in advance!!!

[@Tu_capitan_]

Wolverine best boots I’ve ever had by far only buy Wolverines

[@jordan2fly4u]

I just ordered the steel toe version would you say the boot is lightweight for like running or walking fast??

[@shirleygirly17]

use foot powder inside ur socks it helps the moisture & your feet hurt less cuz they don't get stuck

[@Seventhcause]

I work on concrete 12 hours 4-5 days a week. Hard to find boots that don’t hurt my feet after 6 hours or so.

[@rawnuhld]

Dr Scholls insoles help a lot. I wear these types of boots with the heavy duty Dr Scholls insoles wearing them 10+ hours walking/standing a day and my feet don’t hurt as much.

[@CHAD-RYAN]

Ive had them for over 2 years now. The only peice that went bad so far is leather stiching on the sides of the boot. Both boots. But they have saved me a ton of money instead of buying nike shoes, addidas, and and the other shoes not meant for work.

[@Gene1969]

I put on a coat of mink oil on mine and it added flexibility to the leather on that stitch point and helps it. I am a landscaper in Florida and am constantly shifting from standing to kneeling, bending these boots right where that stitch is. No problems so far.

[@CHAD-RYAN]

@@Gene1969 im in florida also. And my sole just detached from the leather on one. Currently looking at the new thorogood midnight boots.

[@Gene1969]

@@CHAD-RYAN Let us know what you think of them.

[@karllangner1579]

I hope the out sole of these boots are better than the preveous Wolverines.

[@dracojensei1141]

Are they good for back of house restaurant

[@sjcobra84]

I once had a pair of Graysons. Within a year, they gave out. Which is a shame because I still want to give Wolverine a chance.

[@geet77777]

Hey, do they feel heavy? After years of igboring it I kinda realized that extremely light boots are amazing.

[@bird2002]

Yes, they’re a little heavy. You can feel how beefy they are. But I just kind got used to it. What boots did you get that are super light? I’d be curious to try them out

[@miguelmarcos823]

Quick question from 1-10 how waterproof exactly are these boots in your opinion my good sir ?

[@bird2002]

so far I'd say 10, as long as you don't get water to overflow near the tongue/laces. I use these every time I go to my dad's ranch, and there's usually several inches of water in many parts of the property and I've never had water get in. Anything higher though, and it will overflow into the boot, so I'm also careful. They're comfortable enough for all-day work. But just like water doesn't get in, it also doesn't get out, so my feet will get real sweaty on those extra-hot days. They're worth it though. 2yrs later I'm still very satisfied with them.

[@DroBreez0]

for around $90 less than timberlands it's almost a no brainer.

True to size or half down?

[@bird2002]

I would say it's true to size. I was very happy with the fit.

[@IVIBIVI]

fun fact wolverine have made boots almost "100 years before timberland"

[@julla1416]

How hot are these? I live in Manhattan. Can you wear these in warm weather? Thanks.

[@bird2002]

I wear mine in Houston, year round, even in the hot months (90°-105°F) and they can get hot and sweaty. I prefer these in the cold months for obvious reasons, and because they aren’t as breathable as Amazon reviews said they were. Overall I still love these boots, mostly for their comfort. I can work in these all day long.

[@bird2002]

When I wear them indoors in the AC, that’s when I can tell that they’re hot. Outside, I’m hot all over and don’t notice them. It’s not bad though

[@oatisb.driftwood8513]

The soles of these boots aren't solid, they are hollow. I will be returning the pair I just received in the mail. These boots won't last me 1 month in my work conditions. They won't protect my feet from sharp objects on the ground.

[@amskater123]

Worst boot I’ve ever bought. I work on the rail road and the sole got chewed up by the rail cars. In less than a month, there was a hole from one of the lugs getting caught and ripped off. Also these have a nylon shank. That’s next to useless when climbing ladders. I would imagine these being perfect for warehouse work but not heavy duty work

[@IfYouKnowYouKnow.]

Shut up Meg

[@NolanStidham]

yeah of course there's gonna be a hole if a part of the boot gets ripped off? also they are called floorhands, not railworkers.
