Less than two months and just over 100 miles walked and holes already formed in interior of boots near back of ankles. Very comfortable but not very durable for the price.

All around great boot. Easy to put on and take off, comfortable and most importantly rebuildable

Robust and well built upper, thicker than I expected with the fire insulation, but not outrageous after some break in. Price is comparable with other similar boots, but these are higher quality. The rough leather finish looks really good as well.

So far they seem fit ok- I don’t think they will be hard to break in.

I have worn work boots for almost 30 years. I recently moved to a job where these boots are a necessity. I have always worn a 9.5 regular in various brands. With these boots I had to buy an 11.5 EE. So after sending my first pair back for not fitting I finally found a store that carried them and bought after I tried on a pair. Would have been nice if they were sized appropriately.

They are great for working in the field. I had to order a men’s size 6 to find any good fire boots that met the requirements for wildland firefighters in my district. They are great for rough and steep terrain. The comfort level was significantly better than other boots I had tried on.

Decided to give Danner a try. Was wearing them doing yard work to break them in. Got a fire, short 4 hour gig, they were great!! Waded through a small creek several times without getting feet wet. Thought they may get hot with the thick liner but didn't. Probably walked about 4-5 miles.

Decent boot but very expensive for performance. Feet are sore at the end of the day. Definitely not as good as the quarry boots that I usually get.

Second pair of boots. First pair ran a half size smaller. Comfortable and effortless.

Heard good things about these boots but after my first role the bottoms are just tore out the toes are falling apart and the tread is chunking out.

Great station boot but if you in a hand crew / hotshot crew I would get something with a bigger heel ( just my opinion ) This boot is very comfortable and you can break them in very easy.

They came just in time! Hit the ground running, straight out to wild land fire. No breaking in needed! Super comfortable

Running small in length i may have to return them for a 11

I got these as a gift for my husband. He’s had these boots before and wanted a new pair. He loves them and says they’re very comfortable. Takes a little time to break in, but once you do they’re great.

The boot provide very good ankle support while walking delivering mail/packages for USPS as a City Carrier PTF. Since they are a wild land fire fighter boot the soles only last about 8 months while walking on paved streets and cement. The boots are sized well so I can comfortably wear heavier work socks.

The best wildland firefighter boot! 1) very comfortable out of the box & completely broken in after 24 hours of hard use! 2) felt zero heat in hot ash. 3) waterproof. 4) feet stay secure when hiking up/down slope & no hot spots on feet. 5) fit is true to size. 6) light weight

Why is there loose thread inside the boot? This is the second time I’ve gotten a pair of boots from you with this issue. The first pair I sent back and it feels like you sent me the same pair again. What happened to quality assurance? My season starts soon and I don’t have time to wait for another pair so I guess I’ll just pray these don’t fall apart on me. Also I was double charged for this order, while some of those charges were reversed, I don’t know why this was an issue to begin with. Also I don’t know if I was refunded the correct amount. This is the last year I’ll be wearing Danners, your company has fallen from their high reputation.

Make these in women's sizes. Women firefighters exist!

These are the Best wild land fire boots! I’m putting them to the test they keep my feet cool in hot spots. Easy to wash off the ash without my feet getting wet. They are like pillows on my feet. Have not gotten a single blister in miles of hiking and working in them. They are tough enough to put up with the abuse of fire ash and water. Worth every penny. Would suggest to anyone over many other options even though they are a bit on the high end of the price spectrum for boots out there. These are worth it. This is my 5th pair of danners foot wear. Great company and great product. Also I love how you make size 15s! Lots of boots do not come in my size.

I purchased my first pair during the 2022 fire season and jumped a fire with them a few days after receiving them. Within the second working shift, the stitching above the vibram heel began to unbind and quickly separated. I brought them into a Danner location in Oregon and described my issue. They swapped out the boot for me. My very next fire was in some rough terrain (Rogue-Siskiyou NF) where the brush was thick but the ground was soft, and, within a handful of shifts, the vibram sole began to separate and crack in large chunks. Both of these issues occurred within the first few fire shifts I worked after first wearing the boots. Though the customer support from Danner has been helpful and supportive, these boots have demonstrated their inability to hold up in what would be considered as normal fireline conditions.

They are a good solid boot. with the exception of I ordered a wide boot and they are still narrow on my feet. With that there is no ankle support or arch support. Since they run narrow there is no room to put any inserts in to compensate for no arch. Hiking in them is difficult especially in steep terrain and cause some feet issues.

Ended up sending these boots back after wearing them around the house. They are tight in the toes and loose in the heel. They also are very warm. Just wearing them inside made my feet sweat in minutes, so you can imagine how they'd feel on the fireline.

My husband loves the boots. Says they are very comfortable. He loves them!

Good to go right out of the box. Very short break in time

Arrived earlier than promised. Perfect fir the first time. I should have bought a pair of boots like this 20 years ago

The price has gone up and quality down, not sure how they’re justifying this when other companies lowered their prices for firefighters. Besides the hooks and laces being trash the roughout is also lower quality when compared to ANY other brand

This is the second season I’ve used this exact boot and no matter what terrain your on I’ve yet to wear anything that comes close to how comfortable they are, to me they are the best boot for wildland firefighting.

Got a good deal on these Danner boots. If you read reviews you'll see they're a great boot for wildland fire fighting as well as every day hiking, working, etc. No break in needed. Older reviews will have complaints about the hooks breaking at the ankle. My first pair had a hook crack and I had it replaced. The pair I received from Sheplers are updated and have eyelets replacing the bottom hooks so no risk of those breaking. If you're looking for a pair of wildland fire boots and don't like the high heel White's or Nick's, these are a great option. I really don't need them but wanted to get a spare pair while they're available at a good price.

After about 100 hours of wear, the leather just gave out out across the heel just above the embossed “Danner” logo exposing the liner. The faux p-cord laces lasted maybe 20 hours. The bulky lace hooks bend easily and tear pants. These boots should not be labeled for wildland firefighting and they’re a serious drag on Danner’s brand. DO NOT BUY THESE BOOTS FOR WILDLAND FIREFIGHTING. If there were an option for no stars, these boots would qualify.

Really disappointed in the quality particular boot. The are Boot are coming undone at the front toe. I thought the quality would be a little bit better. Don’t for see myself purchasing Wildland firefighting boots in the Foreseeable future. These boots have only been on fire line for less than 21 days.
