Customer Reviews 5.11 Tactical Cable Hiker Carbontac CST

I've been wearing mine for over 2 weeks now on a 10 hour shift. I've worn it for 10 days. The first 3 days of wearing them was rough. They were very stiff and uncomfortable but never left me with blisters. On the second week, the shoes started to stretch out so now and I'm in love with it. Not super comfortable but I mainly wear them for the style. It's a little narrow on the protective toe area. I do walk around a lot for my job, about 14,000 steps on average and it does get a little uncomfortable towards the end of my shift. I recommend these if your job doesn't require a lot of walking. Also, if you're more for style then comfort. On the other note, I recommend purchasing a half size bigger.

another incredible footwear choice by 5.11, full toe box, great quality materials and construction.

great fit very comfortable.lighter than I expected.

like these boots alot very comfortable. no need to break em in

Very comfortable boot highly recommended

The fit is good. I ordered a half-size down from what I wear in casual shoes, and that may have been unnecessary. They are a bit heavier than expected for composite toes marketed as "super-lightweight," but it's not horrible. It took about a week of wearing to break-in to comfort. I work in a warehouse where I'm constantly on my feet, and I am overall very happy with the boot so far.

5.11 boots are the most comfortable boots I’ve ever worn, and they hold up very well. Just know they arrive a little stiff, but that’s because they are well made and need to be broken in. The best part is they aren’t uncomfortable during the breaking in period and only get more comfortable as time goes by. The only brand I’ve worn that equals the comfort of 5.11 is Hoss, but they are getting harder to find.

I wear 10 to 10.5 US and this is perfect (size 10).

Good quality very comfortableGBe specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

All around great work boots...thank you

Very fit

Perfect fit

great quality

Loved it

The shoe fit really tight was not true to size

comfortable from the start!

These are the best safety boots I have brought from Zappos. They are sightly narrow, but I'm used to this with safety shoes. The arch support is good, but I changed to insoles bought from Zappos also. I'm happy with these...perfect for winter.

This is one of the best boots I’ve gotten from the Amazon boot program.

So let me start off by saying that these are my first actually good pair of boots that I’ve bought. That being said everything that I reviewed was exactly what it described them to be. They’re comfortable and once you break them in they loosen up more. The only downside I have is make sure you wear long socks cause they do rub but other than that for $100 dollar pair of steel toe work boots they’re pretty nice ??

Great fit great material and very comfortable

Overall, I’m sure these shoes will work for many people. The biggest problem I had was the heel support behind the heels. It was too firm, causing blisters, less than an hour after my first shift wearing them.
