Oboz Men's Bozeman Low Leather

I wanted to give these shoes a fair review now that I am about to throw them away and move on to a new pair of the same shoe. First off, I gave these shoes a 5 star, but they are NOT perfect shoes. But the pros seriously outweigh the cons. and the cons are an easy fix. The pictures are of the shoes after they are basically worn out. I can get a few more months out of them but the comfort is gone and they are falling apart. I wore these shoes 5 to 6 days a week 10 hours a day on a construction job site since the day I bought them. I have been wearing them for exactly 3 years!! I have always worn DC skate shoes or other work tennis shoes like Merrill and Chinook. I have never had a shoe last more than 1 year until I bought these Oboz. The Pros: * Lasted 3 years * Comfortable right out of the box * True to size * Super durable rubber sole * A nice looking, stylish, sleek shoe The Cons: * The heels on the inside of the shoes started wearing out within 8 to 10 months. You can see how blown out they are in the picture. the composite heel cap started breaking down and chipping away after about 1 1/2 years. I wore them with blown out heels for the past 1 1/2 years with little issues. THE FIX: Self adhesive heel protectors will stop the wear on the heel fabric of the inside of the shoe, but does not sacrifice comfort. * Arch support was a little high. THE FIX: Replaced insoles with Timberland anti fatigue insoles. * The tongue falls to the outside of the shoe. THE FIX: A lot of shoes do this, I drill a small hole in the tongue and run a small zip tie thru the tongue and the lace hole to keep the tongue from slipping

Comfortable pair of shoes, well built, though time will tell, they have decent grip and are easy to take on and off, unlike my boots, these shoes will be loved by people who normally wear boots.

Perfect fit the best shoes made great value

I was excited to get these shoes as I am a fan of Oboz and really wanted to like them. I love the clean monotone casual sneaker look of these shoes. They go well with casual outfits and was hoping they would fit the bill for all-day wear with ability to hit some easier hikes and general outdoors wear. My feet are ~13.5, medium width. In most shoe brands 14M fits best. Knowing Oboz tends to run a bit small, I went with size 14 and they fit nicely. I would think if you have a true size 14 foot, these may be too small. Compared to their heavier hikers, like Bridgers, they are a bit wider in across the toe box, which is nice. The overall fit is a bit more relaxed than other Oboz I've tried but still was snug enough in the heel to prevent slipping. The Oboz insoles are great too. I need an insole with good arch support and ankle stabilization, and Oboz is one of very few brands I don't have to replace the insole in, saving at least $30. The heel is a little lower than other hiking shoes, but is still high enough to provide good support. The laces felt strong and solid and were easy to adjust. The tread pattern seemed like it would provide excellent grip, however, I did not get a chance to test that out. The problem I had is the seam where the tongue attaches to the vamp was rather prominent and with every step pushed down onto my toes. Very annoying. I don't know if I just got a bad pair or if this is a problem with the design, or if the design is just a bad match for my feet, but sadly, these had to go back. Still, kudos to Oboz for making an excellent looking casual hiker.

Very comfortable and seems to be pretty durable. Size fits like I would expect.

Comfort: 8 out of 10. Style 10 out of 10..

Fantastic shoes, very comfortable and good looking. True to size. I will buy another pair

Bought these shoes in advance of a trip to Prague on which I knew I’d be doing a lot of walking. Break them in before walking long distances. A little stiff at first. Once that’s done, these are awesome shoes! I averaged about 20k a day in the Czech Republic and walk 6 or 7 miles a day here in the USA. One of the best pairs of shoes I’ve ever had.

J'adore ces chaussures, confortable, beau look... j'en suis à ma troisième paires de Oboz dont une que j'ai depuis plus de 14 ans, elles sont encore en très bon état... la livraison s'est très bien passé, livré 1 jour avant la date prévu

ソールが柔軟に動き非常に快適。デザインも好みで、結構高額だが色違いでリピート。

Purchased from Outdoor action with no issues. Quick delivery by Royal Mail. Shoes are true to size (UK10) and very comfortable. Overall I'm very pleased and would by them again in a different colour.

The shoes tore in the most unexpected place three months later. The length of the laces is such that you can weave fishing nets. A very stupid shoe model, but very comfortable.
