I have 2 pairs of the same boot. Magnum stealth force 8.0 side zip and yes they are great. The only weakness I've found is the zipper pulls are plastic and break after 3 years or so and the heel lining wears out . also the velcro zipper holders are cheap and dont work well after a year or so. Overall for the money ...you are right. they are a a deal. I also like to cinch my boot laces and wear them tight. The laces work well on the magnum boots for that and thats why i keep buying them. good video
been wearing inconsistently the past half a year but like it keeps rubbing the back of heel and there will be blisters. my feet is very picky with boots. the other previous pair I used that worked nice was Altama, for 2 years heavy use but the sole is wearing out. Welco wasn't good. maybe it needs to be seasoned more? pls advice
