JK Boots Height: From 6-Inch to 12-Inch, Customers on the Fit
When you’re picking a work boot, the height is one of the choices that depends heavily on personal preference as well as the work you'll be doing in it. Some customers want a taller height for the coverage and more support while others don’t want the extra leather. These ten JK Boots customers picked anywhere from a 6-inch to 12-inch height, let's take a look at what they have to say about the fit, support, and break-in.
The 6-Inch Reviews
Usually prefers 8-inch or taller but these 6-inch Archers fit like a glove.
"The boots are first and foremost the best looking 6" boots I've ever owned. I dont typically buy 6" or short cut boots, I prefer 8" + ... they fit luke a glove and yeah, they are stiff at first damn even stiff they are comfortable. I would 100% recommend these boot to everyone."
Went with the 6-inch on purpose.
"Great boots. Ordered a 6” as I don’t need the height. Follow the oiling instructions and you boots will be amazing."
A union pipefitter on his feet all day.
"So far been a great boot they're breaking in well the was kinda stiff at first I am a union pipefitter they work well for me as a service fitter I'm constantly on the go and moving all day long after the initial break in they are comfortable!"
Highest-quality boots they've owned.
"The highest quality boots I’ve ever had. This boot will make you appreciate the craftsmanship and attention to detail. Took about three days to break-in for me. Absolutely love these boots."
Well made and they fit great.
"These are some great boots. They are well made and best of all, they fit great. I'll try to review again in the future after I've been in them for a longer period of time."
Great quality and workmanship.
"Great pair of boots. Love the quality of the workmanship."
The 8-Inch, 10-Inch, and 12-Inch Reviews
Got back to work in his 8-inch Forefronts for 21 days straight.
"Early August I was in a dirt bike accident and broke both the bones in my lower leg. I went back to work early December and haven't had a day off for 21 days. My Forefronts have been on my feet for 12hrs plus every day. Life is good with my JK boots installed. Merry Christmas!"
Most comfortable boots he’s owned in an 8-inch height but is thinking about a 10-inch next.
"These are by far the most comfortable boots I have ever owned. The only thing I don’t like is the round leather pin in the center of the heel. But my heel will get used to it. I’m on my boots 13 hours a day for 7 days straight. I might order another pair only in 10” instead of the 8” boots. Thank you."
Tip from a 10-inch owner: get laces to match.
"The boots were well made, I'm still breaking these boots in as we speak , so if you get the 10 inch boot , be sure to get the appropriate length of nylon laces for them. I work for amazon as a warehouse worker and they keep my feet free of concrete pain on the floor but because they are breaking in still , it will be a good minute before they feel amazing..."
A 12-inch custom bison Fire Inlander with the easiest break-in he’s ever had.
"I ordered a pair of Bison leather inlanders with 12 inch uppers and I absolutely love them. Very comfortable and has been the easiest boot break-in ever."
Some went with a 6-inch option because they didn’t need the extra height, some 8-inch because that’s what they always wear, and one a 12-inch custom for the extra coverage. While they had a comfortable break-in and great fitting boot. A full leather work boot that is well built works whether it hits your ankle or your calf.
