I love them!
These are a fantastic pair of boots, very durable and comfortable and look very trendy as well. A nice feature is that the laces can be “unhinged” which can make it much less of a struggle to take them off at the end of the day. If only they were a little bit cheaper I would be ready to buy another set with a slightly different colour!
These Cats are good, but perhaps not as good as they used to be.
I have been a Caterpillar aficionado for many years. What I particularly like about the Colorado boot is the good looks that go well with almost any outfit, the versatility and durability of the boot, the high quality of materials used, the close attention to detail, and last, but not least, the reasonable price tag.
I already have two pairs of Cat Colorados in different colors. I have had both pairs for a few years now and they have been easy to maintain and they still look like new. Recently, I decided to buy a new pair in a dark brown color just to get another option to wear. I ordered a pair in the “dark chocolate” color. I was however, surprised to find that there is a considerable color variation in relation to the pictures provided by Amazon. The dark chocolate color in reality looks more like a regular to light brown.
The first thing that struck me about these new boots is how light they are. In fact, they turn out to be about 250 grams lighter than my older ones. While less weight to carry around on your feet may sound like a good thing, in this case, the lighter weight has been achieved by reducing the thickness of the upper leather, the thickness of the rubber sole and the padding in the collar around the ankles. A closer inspection of the workmanship clearly reveals that these boots have not been built with the same care and attention to detail as my older ones. This suggests they will, in all likelihood, wear out faster. On the positive side these boots are surprisingly comfortable to wear. They are softer than my older Cats and they will require less breaking in which is a good thing.
I was very pleased to find that the size fit. However, for some reason these Colorados are almost half a size smaller than my older boots. This means that I will not be able to wear them with thicker socks during winter. It seems that my older boots have been made in Taiwan while the new ones have been made in Vietnam. Maybe the variation in color, size and quality can be explained by the different countries of manufacture? In any case, if you have an older pair of Colorados made in Taiwan and decide to order a new pair of the same size online I would suggest you first try the new version of the boot out in a shop to make sure the size will fit.
All in all I am very happy with the purchase. The Amazon service was quick and reliable and the boots are both very comfortable and good looking. However, I can’t help getting the impression that these new Cat Colorados are cheaper, less durable and of a poorer quality than my older boots. Don’t get me wrong, these Cats are still good, but perhaps not as good as they used to be.
Great Boots … at last!
I ordered the boots at the beginning of February, I had wanted them because of the cold weather as I know Cat boots are excellent for winter conditions (I’ve had a couple of pairs before). So six weeks later and I finally get an email saying they have been dispatched. Good news.
The wait was well worth it as I’ve made a massive saving compared to the high street value. And! as expected the boots are excellent, I have the ‘cashew’ colour/finish – the leather is superb. They are very comfortable with very good ankle support. Really very good value for money!
