These are actually Terra Gantry boots. 5 stars all comes down to the price. The waterproofing could be better as it only works well up to 2.5 inches. Maybe 3 inches tops. Maybe I got a mildly defective pair. You can't really expect 4-6 inch waterproof coverage. I got an extra 20% off during black Friday which made it an absolute steal compared to what the regular price is. If I had paid regular price on these per retailers(M.W.W., M.S.S., W.A.) I'd be very disappointed. These are not almost $300 boots. I can't attest to the longevity but the outsole seems to be the best feature of the boot along with the front toe bumper/guard.
