I bought a pair of Strider Boots in 2018. They are extraordinarily comfortable and robust. I have basically two pairs of shoes: summer sneakers (from Brighton's Vegetarian Shoes) and winter boots (Will) so I've been wearing them quite a lot. I've had the soles repaired once or twice and I'm still wearing them. My shoe repairer is amazed by the quality of both those pairs of shoes, as fake leather are generally bad quality. I love the boots so much I decided to get a new pair in case production ceases some day. I got the Rangers, which seem to be the replacement to the Striders with a few improvements. I think I liked the Striders sole better visually but never mind. Also they looked thinner. The rangers look more massive, make greater feet. I think it's a matter of shape more than a matter of size because I ordered the same size. They look more like Doc Martens. I guess I'll get used to it. I'll probably be keeping them in a closet for a year or two since the Striders are still doing well. Best shoes ever.

2 months post-purchase. I've worn these nearly every day. Walking, working, etc.
I was concerned with some of the reviews describing weak pull tab, but I have to wonder now if those individuals were not loosening the boot before they put it on and just trying to jam their feet in there? I have had no issues with them.

What I Like:
Vegan
Well priced
Durable
Very Water resistant (momentary full submersion and still dry feet, hose off after working and no water inside)
Good looking, you can wear these with anything casual, maybe even the lower side of business casual if you make sure to clean them up first.

What I did not like:
This is personal preference. I dont care for lace hooks. I prefer eyelets, but that did not and would not in the future prevent me from buying a good pair of boots.

They ran a little large converting to US sizes. Probably 1.5 sizes larger than expected.

They could be more comfortable. Due to the extra room you could put an insert in. If you're not going to do that these boots don't have a lot of cushion and the sole is quite firm so extended wear may leave you with sore feet.

I would recommend these to anyone shopping for a daily driver boot.

Habe die Schuhe jetzt zwei Winter hindurch mit warmen Einlegesohlen als einzigen Freizeitschuh getragen (nur am Wochenende) und war damit sehr zufrieden. Leider löst sich jetzt das Obermaterial von der Sohle ab, da es nicht damit vernäht ist (Naht ist nur angedeutet/dekorativ). Wenn eine Reparatur nicht möglich ist, werde ich nach dieser kurzen Zeit leider schon wieder neue Schuhe kaufen müssen, was nicht meinem Gedanken von Nachhaltigkeit entspricht.

It is without exaggeration or hyperbole that I write, these boots are absolutely fantastic.

They fit my wide feet comfortably. The sizing chart runs true.
They look & feel expensive (heavy weight, tough/rugged leather, durable laces, chunky treads).

I purchased them for an NYC trip in the winter. They easily held up to the cold, snowy weather & did not negatively affect my feet despite walking for miles & hours each day.

I can wear them up or down, fashion-wise.

*The laces are comically long but I make due by wrapping them around the neck of the boots 3 times.*

I am an 11-year vegan & I have struggled to find ethical shoes that weren't some cheap, synthetic garbage that falls apart after 12 months.
I can't believe I never discovered Wills until now. I'm truly grateful!

One month in, I love them. They have good traction in snow and slush and have felt great even when I'm on my feet all day.
