Rugged Flex®
Carhartt Rugged Flex® technology moves and stretches with you throughout the day so that whatever you're doing, it's easier to do.
Rugged Flex® garments must meet the Carhartt's defined standards for stretch, recovery, and durability, so when you put on a Rugged Flex® garment, you know it won't let you down. You'll find Rugged Flex® in shorts, shirts, pants, jackets, and boots because you need gear that helps you move, not gear that holds you back.
Normally all the products I get from Carhartt are great, this boot is unfortunately an exception. The back stay broke just under the triple stitched seam after a month and now that I've had them for 4 months the soles are separating from both toes. I usually get another boot but wanted to try the Rugged flex and have been disappointed. Seeing what else is out there for tough outdoor work boots.

Probably hit or miss
Somewhat disappointed with these boots. I've owned a lot of boots over the years. I found them to be comfortable and true to size. However in less than a month the right boot color got darker then the left and the left started to squeak while walking. I hope this is isnt the norm as I was thinking about getting the 8 inch version as well but now am second guessing on getting them.
