UA Valsetz RTS 1.5 Wide 4E Boots (Open Box)

I bought these boots in October 2020. I wore them not more than 40 times over the past 10 months. Never mistreat them. Used at the range maybe 10 times and at job sites not even 20 times (when steel toe not required). The stitches holding the plastic tip started to fail after 20 days of usage. That is the same type of failure I have seen in other reviews. Last time I used them, I was at a offsite job. I didn’t even bother bringing them back home. Threw them in the trash can while I was packing. Zero waterproofing. I mean zero. On a rainy day, your feet will get wet. Yes, they are light and comfortable, however, they are far far away from being a reliable pair of boots. A life expectancy of 160 hours is just unacceptable. I’m being very generous with an estimated 8hrs usage per day (more than likely, they failed at after 120 hours of normal usage). Shame on UA for making such a cheap and defective product. I strongly recommend potential buyers to read other reviews from different sources. I’m not the only one complaining about the stitches failing and short lifespan. These “boots” are not made for walking.
