LockedCraftsman or Coleman?

posted on November 12, 2009 at 03:33PM Inappropriate?

Which is your favorite and why? I just LIVE in Sears Work Boots. And in wearing men's you can get a smaller size than women's lol. But really, The boots helped me get mobility and learn to walk again. I LOVE Sears and KMart for this. Coleman have the most comfort for daily wear, and Craftsman are industructible! So, if you had to pick one which would it be?

Sounds like you walk a lot and wear down the treads. how about Craftsman or Brahma boots? They have a great choice of steel toe or even composite toe.

Check out the DieHard Suretrack workboots. I wear them at work and they do not slip around

Thanks for the tip. Do you buy yours at KMart, Sears, or online?

Can't wait to try!

I buy them at Sears and on Sears.com. The last pair I bought I waited until they were on sale and a Freinds and family event was going on, with free shipping. I bought a pair of Skechers and a pair of Diehard Oxford Suretrack for around $65

Thank you. I am a big believer in KMart shoes and don't buy them anywhere else. But I'm willing to try Sears of course. Been in love with Craftsman boots, the Coleman are more comfortable but they lose tread kind of quickly.

Again, thanks for telling me where you found the shoes. Nice seeing you on site again!

You can't go wrong with the Sears Diehard, I've been wearing them for 35 years, no not the same pair. The work shoes and boots are very durable and comfy.

ROFL not the same pair? that Would be a lifetime guarantee, wouldn't it? I am tired of being told to wear heels or strappy sandals by my well meaning friends. I wore metal leg braces courtesy of the Army for about 10-12 years. I am *THRILLED* to wear boots.

Craftsman's got a really nice new collection of boots out now. Just saw them at the Sears at the mall.

Thank you. I just joined Craftsman Club and community, too. I love the yardwork and love those boots.

Have you seen my reel mower video on Sears Twitter or the new  "SearsSuperFan" youtube channel?

Yeah, I saw your pics and watched the video. I've seen several videos by people with reel mowers. I never had that easy mowing with my reel mower (long since given away) that I see other people having. I don't know if the grass is too thick, or if it was the design, or what...but I had to push-pull-push-pull over and over. I couldn't go more than a couple inches at a time! Just keep it clean and lubricated, and it should serve you for a good long time.

The strip I chose to show was already done! It is NOT easy, I assumed it was my physical conditioning, but other people told me they switch to  gas quickly!

I made it look good, didn't I? and thanks for watching my videos. I am getting faster. I was just a few days out of surgery when that video was done, hence the puffy look.
