Not What They Used To Be.
This is my 3rd pair of "Wilderness" boots. I was interested in the oxblood since I have the 'original' wilderness boots in black and brown. Browns 15 years old, blacks 6. They have been continuously dependable and rugged. Worth every penny, built to last. All that. But these wilderness 'legend' boots are different. First, the leather is very soft, much softer than before. They were comfortable the first time I wore them. The old boots took almost a year to break in properly. The tongue is a little cushion in soft leather, instead of a rugged support feature. Then the first time I wore them in the snow, less than 100 yards in, I felt water creeping in between the out-sole and the insole. That doesn't even happen to my 15 year old boot. I compared them to my older versions, and these have no stitching between the outsole and insole. allowing snow and melt to work its way in there. Instant failure. You cannot have a boot let snow and water in like that. That's not waterproof. It's not even water resistant. It doesn't matter how waterproof the material if it's seams leak. It's a $400 loafer.
The oxblood look is nice. The leather is obviously top quality. Hence 2 stars. But these are NOT rugged. They are NOT water resistant. They're NOT as supportive as the old boots. Unfortunately these boots just aren't what they used to be. I wont buy them again. No I would not recommend them to a friend.

Quality craftsmanship, Excellent leather, Super comfortable
This legendary version of the Wilderness is what I've been waiting for. The Horween Buccaneer leather in Oxblood is eye catching to say the least. Buccaneer Chromexcel has all the great properties of Horween's Chromexcel leather with the addition of a waterproof finish. This is the perfect everyday walking boot. The width is a perfect fit for a D or E but the length is a lil longer than sizing suggests which is preferred if you plan on Hiking down steeper slopes. The interior leather lining with no GTX or waterproof membrane is exactly what I look for in a boot & the lower heel height with plenty of midsole cushioning is perfect for driving a manual car with 3 pedals without being clunky. The structure is sturdy without being stiff like a true Backpacking boot which like I said earlier is perfect for everyday walking. Minimal or no break in time needed with this boot. Quality craftsmanship throughout.

Makes me feel fancy
The leather feels awesome and they are super comfortable on my feet. I have had many, many compliments about how beautiful the boots are. Will continue to break them in and see how they hold up, I expect great things! Sizing was larger than expected but I have worn Merrel shoes before I knew what size I am. I recommend sizing down at least a half size.

Runs large
These boots ran large. Bought for husband who usually wears 11's, but need 10.5 in this one. Bad luck tho, as they don't have any 10.5s in stock.
