Review: So far so good - with updates. - Can’t give them 5 stars because I’ve only been wearing them one week at the time of this review. But so far so good. They are oversized but the product description states that. I got some cheap inserts and that took care of that. I’ve been wearing them everyday for a week in rough working conditions. I wanted these for the hard rubber soles because I run a high risk of stepping on rusty nails sticking through boards. These are my first jungle boots. The canvas uppers seem to keep my feet cooler, I don’t know why. Also, the canvas uppers make these boots easier to lace and they slip on and off a lot easier than what I’m used to. I haven’t ran into any of the problems yet that I’ve seen in these reviews. None of the bootlace eyelets have popped out and the drain grommets are still intact. The leather looks to be real. It’s not cracking and splitting anywhere yet. I shine the boots at the end of the day. I bought these to use for a big cleanup project and then throw away. But I may hold onto them. I like them more and more. My girl friend asked me to order her a pair, I tried to dissuade her, but ended up ordering her a pair. I have no idea how that will go. Anyway, I can’t give them a 5 because I’ve only had them a week. I got these so that I won’t get a nail through my foot. Nice boots have soft glued on soles that aren’t going to stop a nail. Update: been wearing these almost daily for over a month. I feel justified in elevating my rating of them from a four star to a five star. Update: It’s now October 15th, 2021. Still no problems. Included a photo of me wearing them. I like them. They lace up fast, the canvas uppers facilitates slipping them on, they take a good shine and are comfortable (with insoles). And they just look so damned good!
Review: Size claims - I received these yesterday and because they seem a little too large, I will wear them around the house for a while. Looking at my Sketcher shoe sizes which are size 12 W, I first ordered these 12 wide. Way too big. I felt like a clown and tripped several times with them on. So, I returned them and ordered theses 11 W. Still they seem to be a tad too large but I will keep them for now. Next time I will first try the 10 W or 10 1/2 W if available. No matter, they must be the wide size. NOTE: I retired from the Air Force and the last few years of my career, I wore these kinds of boots. I really like the style, BUT, these ARE NOT the real thing, far from it. The real ones would cost much more, would be triple threaded on the seams, and have the official U.S. tag in them. None the less, these will do. I will keep them. I had to put foam padding in side as these are as hard as bricks to your foot. If you don't, good luck. Since putting double strips of padding in mine, it makes them now feel something like the real thing. Much of comfortable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid boot at its price range and for its intended purpose
*by S***K on November 6, 2015*

The Rothco "Panama" 8" boot is a solid boot for little money. I agree with the other reviewer that these are not heirloom quality, but they don't intend to be and they are not priced that way. They are somewhat disposable, built for hard use and then replacement. I use them for Paintball and very much like them for that purpose where mud, paint, and such covers them each outing and they get battered and abraded on the ground, cover objects, and the playing field in general. It would be crazy to take nice pair of boots into such a messy destructive environment. These are rugged enough and at a little more than $30, I won't feel bad when they need to be replaced. As has been said, they run about 2 sizes large. I take 9.5 an I ordered 8 and they are a little roomy but fine with a thick sock. The smell is the smell of black dye (smell your tin of black shoe polish and you will recognize it) and dissipates with use. One important thing to know. You WILL have to buy and install a foot bed. The shoe comes with absolutely nothing and is unwearable without the addition of an insole in my opinion. This adds some expense when you consider the "all in" cost. An appropriate Superfeet insole will cost $45 or $50. I use the one designed for boots. You can spend less but I've never found insoles I like as well. But consider this. Somehow Ropthco can create an entire boot for $30 while Superfeet charges more than the cost of the entire boot for a good insole which is some foam and a small piece of plastic. Something about that seems wrong. You can reuse the insole, so if you wear and replace this boot, your average cost will go down. Still it does change the economics of this boot so I mention it.
