The uppers are where you'll see the biggest difference. By comparison, the Magnums had much thicker padding, particularly around the ankles. The closest boot that I can compare these to when it comes to the uppers are an old pair of "Vietnam era Jungle Boots" that I once owned. They have the same sort of feel - more flexible/less padding.
All in all, I think it's a good buy. The only reason I dinged it half a star is because I can't judge the long-term quality yet. My previous pair lasted 2 years, and they're still seeing "garage service".
So far, so good.

At first, they were uncomfortable (pinching, etc.) but then I realized that I was just lacing them too tight. You have to have, though, a give and take between the light weight and absence of padding when compared to other other tac boots. That's the big picture view.
Here is the one detail that reduced it to three stars.
I've never, ever, EVER suffered from Bromodosis (stinky feet) - not even a little bit. After about two weeks These. Boots. Stunk. Badly. Not a "B.O." smell, but a very heavy chemical smell. I took out the insoles and isolated the source of the stank. I don't know if it was the materials that the insoles were made of, or the adhesive that kept them in place, but these things were RIPE!!! I've since replaced them with aftermarket insoles, and, problem solved. Fair warning.
Still an okay buy, but next time, I'm going to go with a pair made in the US.

Problem was the pinch I felt around my ankles. However once they broke in - that problem was immediately fixed
I wear these boots around 50/60 hours a week
And I’ve had the exact opposite experience of the reviewer below me.
I take them off after 12 hours and my feet or sock are never smelly or wet - and same for inside the shoe. First boots I feel like that actually allow me feet to breathe.
Also. Shoes take a great shine and look badass!
I personally love them and I’ve had a few people already ask me where I got them

After a day of breaking them in I thought they were pretty nice. Sole had a good mix of durability without being too thick or stiff, had a very comfortable fit, and I liked the style. Wear them for both EMT and just everyday since I like military and combat boots. Have walked in them but I haven't run in them yet.
