No clue why they're named after Indiana, but they are 8" of comfortable work boot. I guess the "Hoosier State" sounds like a hard-working place where top-quality work boots are a must. These Boots hit the mark in that case, featuring Techniflex construction... allows your boot to move and flex with the movement of your feet and, provides maximum flexibility and comfort in a welt construction.
No matter what the workday brings you, this Caterpillar boot delivers superior support and protection. The treaded rubber outsole gives great grip, while the leather upper is reinforced with a steel toe for safety.

Back for my second pair February 23, 2011By M. Ivie
I originally bought the black pair back in 2003 while serving in the US Navy. The boots issued to me in bootcamp 2002 only lasted maybe around a year before the metal shank started ripping though the leather. I got the black pair back in 2003 and they were great during the last 3 years of service. While standing watch down in the engine room, they don't like watchstanders to sit. So we pretty much have to stand 4-6 hours every 10-20 hours a day. You're in your boots almost 24/7 it seems like. I don't recall having sore feet while on watch. I got out in 2006 and I continued to use the same boots for my new career but after a few weeks, I decided to retire them as regular shoes were accepted where I worked. Last year (2010) we had a uniform change from denim jeans to Dickie pants. I think only boots should be worn with Dickies... well that's how I see it.
For the first year with the new uniform I just stuck with some cheap $20-30 boots. I must of went though about 5-6 pairs. Finally I decided to get some real boots. I never knew the name of my boots while in the Navy except they were made by Caterpillar. With Amazons great way of narrowing down the selection, it left me with a few choices. After looking at the pictures that are provide (which are high res, which is awesome) I knew the Indiana's were it.
I been wearing them around all day on my off day to help break them in. They are a little tighter on the sides than I remember my first pair and the cheap boots. I was worried so I went to a shoes store to get my feet measured. They were both just under a 11in and under the normal width. They don't hurt, just not used to it I guess.
After wearing them all day, they do feel good to walk in and stand in. No wiggling or heel movement unlike my cheap pair. I feel like I'll get 3 years out of these boots easily
By the way, I went with the Brown, color is more of a reddish brown if anything. Looks more slick than the black.

These are a good tough boot. They lasted a few years before I needed to get another pair for my husband.
Perfect boots December 24, 2009
By J. Roe-Bauer
There are no cons to these boots. They are comfortable, durable, and look pretty awesome. I have dropped a few weights on them (by accident) and they hold up fine.
Five star review!
