JK Boots Superduty Reviews: Linemen, Riggers & Crews
The Superduty is our classic logger work boot, with the people who wear it doing a wide range of jobs. In these ten reviews, JK Boots customers tell us what they do in them, from power lines to excavation crews, and what they think of how the boot is built.
Who wears the Superduty on the job?
Five customers who wear the Superduty on power lines, construction sites, rigging jobs and excavation crews.
Builds power lines in New England, and says they felt like old boots out of the box.
"I love them. They feel like I've had them for years right out of the box. I live in NH and build power lines in New England for the IBEW 104. I did a lot of research on boots and so far I'm very happy with you guys."
Has worn several logger-style brands, and found the Superduty the most comfortable out of the box.
"I've had Red Wing, Danner, Carolina and Georgia, all logger style. By far JKs are the most comfortable out-of-the-box and ready to go to work. All of the above have lasted about a year. We'll see how long these ones go."
A construction worker on his feet 12 to 14 hours a day.
"I work in construction and after 12-14 hours on your feet, the JK boots don't feel like you have been wearing them that whole time. They are built to last and are comfortable."
Hired as a rigger, climber and ground crew. Is reserving final judgment for a year of work.
"Great build, excellent construction, so far extremely versatile and useful. From when I'm hired as a rigger, climber, to ground crew, etc. No complaints. Ask me after a year of work and we'll see."
Heading into 40 hours a week in the woods on an excavation crew.
"The whole process was easy from measuring to ordering. So far so good. I will be putting them to the test more this summer when I spend 40 hours a week in the woods on an excavation crew."
What do owners say about the Superduty's build?
Five more on how the boot is made and how it holds up.
Owns four pairs of JK Boots, and the Superduty is his favorite.
"Excellent quality and workmanship, the boot fits and feels amazing right out of the box! I own 4 pairs of JK boots, all of them have been fantastic, but the Super duty's are my favorite, even after spending 20 hours straight in them."
Owns two pairs so he can rotate them, and calls the bison incredible.
"I purchased two pairs of JK Boots. This allows me to rotate them evenly for wear and while one is being serviced I have a pair to work in. The quality is second to none. Bison is incredible! I believe these are the kind of boots that get better with time!"
Two months in, and calls them a work of art made in the USA.
"I've only owned these boots for about two months but I love them and personally think they are the greatest quality boot I have ever put on my feet, when you hold them and try them on you know right away they mean business and they are a true work of art made in the USA."
Wearing the bison Superduty, and loves the idea of boots that can last a lifetime.
"The bison leather is amazing, the moment I put them on I knew these were perfect. The overall craftsmanship and detail is exquisite. I love the idea of owning a pair of boots that can last a lifetime."
Switched after years of boots that lasted nine to twelve months.
"Best boots I've ever bought. I spent years and I don't know how many thousands of dollars on standard work boots that would only last 9-12 months at a time. They showed up I oiled them and immediately went to work with them. Now I lace them up around 5am and don't take them off till around 8:30pm. They feel like an extension of your feet. Definitely gonna get another pair in the near future!"
From power lines to excavation crews, the customers in these reviews put the Superduty to work and came away calling it comfortable and built to last. Every pair is handmade from full-grain leather, sewn with Technora thread, and can be rebuilt when the soles wear down, so one pair can carry you through a lot of jobs. Ready to find your pair?
