After wearing the same safety boots for the past 10 years I finally decided to upgrade. No regrets here. Super high quality and true to size. These boots are so nice I wear them out to dinner!

I love these Xena boots! It has been impossible to find cute, lightweight, slim steel toe boots. Xena has what I needed!

These boots rock! They are practical for the office part of my job because they do not look like bulky work boots. The quality is outstanding, these boots have already held up well to my average 15k steps per day and jumping in and out of trucks. I will definitely be buying another pair of Xena's when I'm ready for another pair of work boots!

Great fit! I have small feet and never can find comfortable steel toe boots but I finally did! I typically wear a 5.5 and went with a size 6 and it fits like a glove! I found my spot for my boots for the rest of my career!

Still getting used to them my toe sticks out farther than I am used to so going up stairs I catch sometimes. Otherwise very comfortable.

I love these. I did have to go up half size from my Desert Sand ones, but they are just as comfortable.

I love my Xena's, I've been wearing these boots for five years now. The one downside is I can't get a year's worth of wear out of them because the sole on the bottom of the boot begins to peel off. My boots get a lot of wear and tear but I would hope to be able to get a year out of them before needing to order a new pair.

I really wanted to like these and they looked great! My job requires be to be on my feet all day and I couldn't last with out adding additional insoles to the boots. 5 months into wearing them for work the inner heals fell apart, the inside soles had chunks missing and they were wearing through my socks. You could claim it was the additional insoles, but I have the same ones in multiple other pairs of shoes that I own. Disappointed, as my last two pairs of steel toes lasted me 3 years each. Replaced these after 6 months.

Alex, Thank you so much for taking time to provide us with valuable feedback regarding your Xena experience. We are so sorry to hear you encountered some issues. That kind of degradation of the inner lining/heel cup is typically due to the shoe not being a correct fit from the jump, as that kind of friction can break down those areas. If you did not order a half-size larger as we suggest doing on our website, this could be the issue (and is likely not the additional insoles.) Also, we recently updated our insoles to be more arch supportive so you may have received our old model which might explain the comfort issue. Our safety shoes, depending on one's industry, can last up to two years with proper care so this is something we would be happy to look at and investigate as a defect (that is if the sizing was not the issue.) If you are able to photograph the areas that have broken down, we would be happy to see what our warranty options are. Email is best (support@xenaworkwear.com). In the meantime, we want to thank you for supporting our small, woman-owned business!
