I was excited to see the return of this boot. I had a pair when they were made in Africa and it was my favorite boot hands down. The boot by the new company in Canada is very well made and has a few changes. Most notably the thick sole, which aesthetically for me isn't as nice, but for the life span of the boot is a plus. The cut is slightly different also, this boot seems a little more loose around the ankle, and the overall height of the boot is a bit shorter. The boot overall is very comfortable and falls between a traditional work boot and a sneaker. It is a great all around boot, reasonably priced and high quality. I will probably wear these out just like my last pair.
I love my Oliberte boots!
I also own Blundstone but figured I would try Oliberte Robson, was pleasantly surprised to see these boots are better made and can be resolved. Very high quality and very comfortable.
