Herman Settler

I liked these boots initially. They were comfortable and fit well. But after very little use, the soles split in two down the middle! The uppers are still in good shape, but the soles are not repairable, or replaceable, so they are now junk.

These are the worst boots I have ever owned. I work as a yard conductor for the railroad and I will admit the ballast is extremely hard on the soles of boots. These boots only lasted two eight-hour shifts before I could take my finger and touch the bottom of my foot through a hole in the bottom.

I've been faithfully purchasing Herman boots (Brawny model) for 8 years. They would last between 1 to 1 1/2 years. For some reason they are no longer available.

Most men once you have a good thing change is more painful then pulling teeth. I purchased these boots due to the name on the box.

I have flat feet and these are the most comfortable shoes to me, and I have been wearing them for 2-3 years when my arch starts hurting I just go by another pair. But for some reason now I cant find them. So I e-mailed Walmart to see If they could special order them for me.

I only had these boots for about 3 to 4 months and the sole cracked in half. These should have lasted much longer.

I bought these boots based on the Herman name and previous good experience. However these are by far the worst boots I have ever purchased based on the soles accumulating snow in the heel and making them a real hazard as it actually created a rounded "snowball" on the back, which causes you to slip and fall.

These have got to be the worst boots I have ever owned. Got them for Christmas. Within two weeks the seams on the side were coming apart. Now the bottoms are splitting. Yes, the soles are splitting and coming apart.

They were and still are pretty comfortable, but for $50 you'd think you would get a little more wear out of them.

I love these boots!! Although I've only had them for two months. I have to admit that I don't put serious strain on them. I wear them to work sometimes and always to the occasional college football game. I live in a mountainous region and find myself hiking up hills to get to the stadium.

I am very unhappy with these....the uppers are ok, but the soles are very slippery, snow clings to them, (if you are short, this trait makes you tall) and last, but worse, is that after only light use, the soles broke completely into, right at the flex point under my toes.
