Comments about Sport Shop|Gear|Hunting Men's Eddie Bauer Field Ops Boot:
If it was a good day in the great outdoors, when it's time to take off my boots I hurt all over and am not in the right frame of mind to fight with my laces. I want to untie the laces, unhook them, loosen them and finally free my feet from my boots' protective grip. Today I was so frustrated I almost cut the laces to get the boots off. More than one reviewer has mentioned this problem. I emailed customer service a week after I bought them last fall, with no response. I asked in the store if they had a solution. None. No thinner laces available. I expected the hooks would loosen up with wear or the laces would get thinner or more stretchy but that hasn't happened. ( I think you could tow a car with the laces.) If you plan to wear your boots in the field doing any kind of strenuous activity, make sure they don't have the locking speed lace hooks that are on these field ops boots. That is, don' t buy these boots, until Eddie Bauer looks into this problem and changes the locking hooks,or instructs wearers how to make release from the hooks possible when you are tired, sore, hot, cold, or in a hurry.

These boots are very comfortable. I am hard to fit and don't usually buy foot ware online. They fit perfectly and are light. So far, I'm in love.
Comments about Sport Shop|Gear|Hunting Men's Eddie Bauer Field Ops Boot:
Overall, I'm happy with this purchase. Being able to purchase them at the 50% discount really helps the "Value" rating.
The first negative I noticed was with tying them. The quick lace hooks would be better if equipped with the old-style stamped steel version. This boot has a die-cast version the has a edge that often catches the laces, and in turn has begun to fray the laces. Perhaps changing the cast in the future may be able to alleviate it. Wearing them in anything above forty degrees will give me a sweaty foot. They tend to be cold at first, then hold in a lot of moisture that's built up. Maybe it's me...I hope not. I'm still waiting to put them through their paces in harsh terrain. As the the stars say above, I am overall happy with these with the hope that continues. I really cannot yet comment on the waterproof feature.

Comments about Sport Shop|Gear|Hunting Men's Eddie Bauer Field Ops Boot:
I bought these boots a few months ago and have worn them on several hikes and on rainy days and have not yet experienced any leaks. They are relatively light and have been comfortable following an initial break-in period. The Vibram outsoles offer good traction in a variety of conditions. My most significant complaint is that the laces included with these boots easily become stuck in the hook-style top eyelets, which makes putting them on and taking them off a bit of a chore. I would recommend using narrower round laces or flat laces instead.
