Dunham Men's Simon-dun Chukka Boot

Summer was ending and, I was looking to invest in a durable work shoe that would last me through the rainy season. I was a little worried about investing in footwear, but they've lasted from August to February before showing signs of wear. The 4x wide size is ACTUALLY 4x wide--a feature I found not to be true of all "wide" shoe sizes. The treads have survived half a year of heel pivots and foot dragging and look like they'll hold up for a few more seasons at least. The waterproof design is great; the tongue doesn't separate from the sides and the leather doesn't leak even after getting soaked. The bad news is that after six months, the sides of the sole and the upper started to separate a bit where the toes bend. This has led to some soggy socks, but a small amount of Shoe Goo solved that problem quickly. For the price I paid, I didn't expect this problem until at least nine months in, but that may just be high expectations or underestimating the abuse I put these through. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with the quality of these boots.

I have difficulty finding shoes that fit. I'm a 12B in Allen Edmonds. So I always start my search first on size and width and discovered these Dunham weatherproof boots on Amazon. I ordered size 12 narrow (B,C). The boots fit perfectly and were comfortable to wear right out of the box. They look sharp and I've worn them to business meetings in the snowy regions I cover. I haven't tested the waterproof capability yet, but should soon. The only thing I don't like is that these boots are not slip-proof on ice. That's not a huge deal, most of my shoes aren't slip-proof. But I had to tip-toe on icy sidewalks and parking lots on a recent trip to Montana. I'm still giving a 5-star rating, that's how pleased I am with the purchase.

I do a lot of walking on my job and wanted a comfortable yet durable shoe/boot. This Dunham seems to be both. Though it was a bit narrow, I gave it a couple of weekends around the house and it has molded to my foot fairly decently. I wore them this week on my pest control job, getting a bit of mud and grass on them. Not only did they still look sharp, they cleaned up nicely with just a damp rag. Will try to follow up after a couple of months for a real review.

I needed a pair of every day working shoes which are wider than regular width. I could not find them in other trendy and expensive brands. So I had to some extended research and found this brand who has more options on sizes on both length and width. Having these shoes for about two weeks, I can say they keeps my feet comfortable and I feel no pain at the end of day. However, when talking about breathability, not so much.

The tightest 4E I have ever tried. My foot almost wouldn't enter at all. I have had this experience before, recently, with other New Balance (Dunham) products. Something has gone very wrong with the sizing, perhaps a mislabeling, or a mistranslation from the Chinese.

This would have been the 4th pair of Dunham boots if I had kept them. The quality was at best poor and the size 11 xx wide (which is what I've worn for years was far too small in every way a boot or shoe can be too small. I absolutely would advice against buying them.

My husband has a narrow foot so it is hard to find shoes or boots that will fit. I ordered the Dunham boots for him according to the sizing chart and they fit him perfectly. Thank you very much for carrying these boots in a size that fit him.

I haven't had them long so I can't tell you how they hold up. They run a bit small. I wear a size 13 and they just barely fit. I'm sure as I break them in they will fit better. You may be better off ordering a half size larger to play it safe. Unfortunately, they don't offer a 13 1/2.

Super light shoes, comfortable and worth the money.
