The Common Projects Winter Combat Boot is a great boot to start out in the combat boots world. They are quiet stylish and unique looking. They are also very durable!
These boots have four thick leather bands that run down the middle of the boot, each of which has a indentation in it. This is where the leather band connects to the rest of the boot.
The bottom of these boots is lined with sheepskin, which helps keep your feet warm and protect your feet from harmful shoes damaging them. The top of these boots has rubberized soles, so they are comfortable and safe for most surfaces.
This boot is ideal for wooded terrain or casual wear outside, as it is nice and protective.

Style
This combat boot is designed in a simple, sleek style. It is easy to tell what brand this boot is by the logo on the bottom of the foot. It is Common Projects!
The boot is shaped like a square, with an emphasis on the heel. This shape helps reduce pressure on your lower extremity. The top of the boot has a smooth, rounded cap that prevents excess water and snow from running off your feet.
This boot is not recommended for warm, sunny conditions. It would be best in colder weather, such as an early winter storm that storms out ahead of winter weather. These boots are not for everyone, but they are worth trying out. They are very nice quality and feel heavy enough to withstand some wear and tear.
There are five different ways to wear this boot. You can put padding inside to make it warmer, or add new shoes to match. You can also put snowshoes or ice skates into it! In between those two options, it is good general fitment for width and length.
Colors
There are four colors available for this boot: black, brown, tan, and red. These colors look great! You can choose between solid or slip on style, and they are able to be shown without and with socks.
These looks perfect! The black looks great with some leather or bright clothing. The tan looks nice under more standard clothing. The red looks nice under more military-inspired clothing or a red uniform.
These boots are machine lasts so you will have strong and long-lasting properties on your shoes. It is recommended to wear them for at least a week before writing this off as an authentic feature!
The soft plush lining inside the footbed is durable enough to last for months upon months of use. We would recommend using it to protect your feet from the hard surfaces of the boot during battle as it would not be functional if it was destroyed.
Laces
If you are a speed demon like me, the low profile laces in the back of the boot make you look like you are wearing high-heeled black leather shoes. If you are more of a steady hand type of person, then the soft rubberized tongues on these boots make them easy to maneuver in.

If not, there is a clever way to fix this! There is a steel plate that can be installed as an extension to the top of the tongue. This steel can be riveted in place, creating the same effect as having high heels on this boot.
Price
This boot is a pretty expensive way to start out. They can be costly if you need more size or just better quality in these boots. You would have to buy a second pair to keep up with the wear and tear!
So how much does this boot cost? It depends on which size you need! The larger sizes cost more due to more padding and the fact that they are bigger. The small and medium sizes are equal in size so there is no savings.
These boots are durable so you will probably want to get another pair after the first one wears out. They are heavy enough that you will need good weightlifting or gardening equipment to get them off!
The Winter Combat Boot is a classic winter footwear. It has thick leather soles that stick out against your feet even when walking on snow, ice, or grass. These shoes are also durable enough for regular use during winter weather, making this a strong contender for your daily footwear.
Common Projects boots reviewed
The Common Projects Winter Combat Boot is a great example of how a company can take a classic boot and make it fun and fashionable. The boot has an upper that is lined in soft, flexible foam. These foam layers add some shape to the foot, making this boot very comfortable.
Another nice feature of this boot is the lined hard plastic heel cup. This helps reinforce the heel, ensuring it does not break off in you while fighting off winter weather.
This boot is available in black, red, and silver with high-quality synthetic leather soles and lined rubber toes. The red/bluish colorway is perhaps my favorite; it looks great with just about anything!
These boots are easy to find contemporary looks for. They are NOT yellow or orange-colored! They are beautiful enough to wear by themselves, but paired with another color scheme, they become even more attractive.
This particular combat boot is good for daily wear, as well as fighting off weather conditions. It is lightweight and sturdy enough to be used for long periods of time.
Conformity
Wherever you are going, you want to feel comfortable and safe. The correct boot shape keeps your feet warm and comfortable. If your boots are not this shape, then try them in the shop!
A boot that is too small or that does not conform to your foot may cause pain or even breakage. It must be able to fit comfortably and stay that way!
To make a combat boot look cheap or run-of-the-mill, you must severely trim the length of the boots. This can lead to poor comfort or even a slight heel lift.
Common Projects has done good jobs with their Winter Combat Boot. They have kept the length true, made them look nice without going cheap, and given them an affordable price point.
Durability
Most people think snow boots are pretty durable, but that is by design. Snow boots are designed to stay on your feet for a long time, even while doing some very active things like skiing or snowboarding.
The boot sole is made of rubber and when frozen, can remain that shape. This is useful for skiing because you can put your Schneiders on and still be ready to go!
Since the boot top is synthetic leather, it will wear off over time. Artificial materials like shoes are not meant to last forever, so manufacturers stop making them when the next model has a new look.
Comfortability
When it comes to comfort, you can have both heavy and thin feet. If you are looking for something with a little support, then you should consider wearing soft shoes. If you are looking for light feet comfort, then choose sturdy shoes.
In between the two extremes, there is a wide range of foot sizes and comfort levels. Most people find that thick soft shoes offer enough support to not be bothersome but not too much that it is uncomfortable. Flimsy leather shoes or ones with heavy metal components may not be comfortable at all.
Heavy boots or gloves can help alleviate this harsh feeling some people get in their hands and feet. And if you are looking for light feet comfort, then try wears soft boots or gloves that are loose enough to keep your feet warm but still sturdy enough to keep your legs warm.
