    Probably but they will not look as good as a pair of Corcorans.....as already stated above. They are 10 inch not 8 like the ones you picked for price....made in phuqing China....you will be lucky if you get a pair that fit....Example. The last time I bought work boots I go to K Mart. One pair is 8.5 wide, the other 9.5 regular.....they in fact were both 9 wide. You mail order boots like this and you could be going back and forth before you get a pair that fit. Go to the PX, get measured and order them there....or something else they sell....that way you might get a decent pair that fit. Last pair I bought was in 1979, after 9 years they were still in great shape. The crap I get now lasts 6 month for the standard $40 pair. Got 1.5 years out of a $150 pair from Redwing.

    Cheap out and suffer or pay the man and be looking good...and no sore feet.

    Dude - these first boots are Leg-Boots .... As a rule, for those who were in an Airborne unit, you would not even wear them once we still wore black boots across the military. So far as the second pair .... Knock your self out.

    yes but i suggest corcorans, they polish better

    lol i feel ya wayne on walmart boots, had a job that was sure to ruin a pair so I got a set from walmart. I normally wear 10 or 10 1/2... the ones that fit correctly at walmart were 7s! wtf? go with danners if you want a set of boots that will last for life.
