I received a pair today from Amazon, ordered Tuesday. I didn't spend much time trying them on, but they are incredibly lite and the built-in insole feels like a pillow. I was in a hurry and trying to get some grass seed down before the rain sets in for the next few days. There is a card in the box that claims a 30 day, money back, guarantee from the mfg. I'll take advantage of that and report my findings.

I'm guessing anything that light won't hold up very well. Give us a report beermaker.

I have many, many miles on mine. 2 years of turkey, deer, mushroom and everything around the farm.

Where I can I buy these locally so I can see them before I buy them?
Or are they strictly online?

I wore the LITE boots all day today. LITE is an understatement. If I didn't know what I was getting, I would have thought the box was empty prior to opening it. I'll give my opinions, but keep in mind that I have a very difficult time finding shoes that fit and are comfortable. My feet are embarrassingly sensitive.
-As stated on the website, they have a "new" odor that is noticeable. I assume that will wear off. I would not buy a pair and then wear them in the deer stand a few days later. -They seem to be durable and well-made. While I only wore them for a day, I was on binder pavement and gravel driveways. No visible wear to the outsoles. -The built-in insole is very cushioning and comfortable. No complaints whatsoever. -There is not any padding or insulation within the boot. I do like little padding around the ankle, but that's not a negative towards the boot. They immediately made me think of the old Northerner and Servus boots, just ligter and more comfortable. -I question the mfg. claim of comfort to 10dF. I'd have to hear it from someone who actually experienced it. -"Easy on, easy off" is absolutely true. Probably the best I've tried without a doubt.
Overall, they seem to be great boots that I will probably keep for work and home. They are not as durable and comfortable feeling as the Dryshods (for hunting) that I just bought, but they are 1/2 the weight and $85 less. They just don't fit as well as Dryshod. It's probably due to no 1/2 sizes and difference between mfgs. Dryshod makes a rubber utility boot that I am going to try before I make a decision.

Bought them.. they are definitely Light! Taking you all’s words for it that they hold up. At my age if I get three or four years out of them that will be enough. $77.10 including tax. Going to out a cushioned insert in them though.
