“Very nice boot“

★★★★★

"Hands down the best boot I've ever worn.
Top notch leather and the build quality is excellent.
Eventhough this is a heavyweight leather, the break-in was minimal.
I liked the OT so much I have a pair of Forefront on order."

“Best boot I've ever worn!“

★★★★★

"This is my first pair of JK boots. I've been wearing White's for 30 years. Not anymore! My JK's are absolutely the most comfortable boot I've ever had on my feet. Easy to break in and durable. I work in rock quarries, so my boots take a beating. I'm a season in, with no issues. Thank you JK Boots for making an outstanding product!"

Eric V. Verified Buyer Fire Inlander C (Brown)

“excellent!“

★★★★★

"This my second pair of boot from JK. Had to have the brown after owning the 300 black. I think owning 2 pairs and giving the third one as gift say it all about my opinion about JK boots. You won’t regret having a pair of those boot for sure! Great job JK! Keep it up! "

“Best boots ive ever owned, bar none. “

★★★★★

"My boots are the most heavily used item i own, i go nowhere and do nothing without them. These JKs are the finest set of boots ive ever owned."

“Best work boot I’ve put my feet into“

★★★★★

"I work as a mechanic for a John Deere dealer in northeast Iowa. From climbing on agricultural equipment and being on concrete to trudging through the uneven sometimes wet freshly harvested corn fields, I needed something that I could be sure footed and comfortable, but also give me good ankle support. The 300x in black was the choice I made. The sizing guide worked perfectly and the quality is unmatched. I put these boots to the test after a day of wearing them around the house for a few hours. Now I find them as my go to for almost everything that I do. Highly recommend. And definitely worth the wait. When it comes to footwear why go cheap? From now on it’s JK boots or nothing else. "

“OT Canyon Bison “

★★★★★

"Unbelievable Craftsmanship, Comfort and High Quality materials. I haven’t seen any boot like it. Its unique build quality and character is really something special. "

“Work boots“

★★★★★

"I bought these 6 months ago after deciding JK looked like the most real work boot manufacturer out of the usual suspects. They had a limited amount of models and the least amount of hipster office worker marketing. I am happy I did, they broke in fast and are wearing good. I work in auto body and tend to beat my boots up pretty bad with dust and chemicals. These still clean up well and look decent. I will need new souls after a year, but that is to be expected. If you want work boots for doing work these are the boots for you."

“Custom Bison Forefront“

★★★★★

"It was bittersweet to find out from JK’s customer support that my original pair of PNW boots that had been rebuilt twice by JK from 2016 were end of life and couldn’t be rebuilt again. Based on previous customer support, quality craftsmanship, and comfort I didn’t hesitate to order these Custom Bison Forefronts! They are my first complete pair of JK’s. If you’re on the fence about paying for bison upgrade rest assured it’s well worth the investment. The out of the box comfort was better than my 8yr old uppers at the end of the day no more “ankle bite.” I have not worn my 2 other pairs since these have arrived. I will be ordering another pair of Custom JK’s in Bison before these are sent in for a resole next year. "

Chris B. Verified Buyer Custom Forefront

“Best boot ever worn “

★★★★★

"Toe box has plenty of room, construction is top notch. No more knee or hip pain. They felt so good and are so durable I ordered a second pair so I have some to wear when I have other pair getting a resole."

Chris E. Verified Buyer O.T. Pro (Safety Toe) - Black

When someone who's spent 25 or 30 years in another brand tries JK Boots and calls them the best boots they've ever owned, that's a verdict that is backed by a real comparison and experience. That along with comments of better comfort, better craftsmanship, and an all round better quality is what gives many of them no reason to go back. If you are needing some new work boots, these reviews are worth a second look before you get your next pair.
