They say having muscles is different from being strong.
Woodland has muscles. Strength is conspicuous. I have bought a range of woodland shoes for the last many years, randing from casual shoes to camel suede shoes to the present high ankle green coloured boots.
The first thing I highly dislike is the obtuse designs they have. Their shoes comprise of many pieces joined together. The soles are also very funny. Woodland really needs to rethink about hiring another product designer.
Design is a very personal issue, and there must be people who totally ok with the way woodland shoes look. But these are not at all durable. I have had a good sample size to claim this. Even the current pair I am using is a costly high ankle boot, the upper of which is already developing cracks in spite of being used for office wearing only. The pair has been well looked after and tended to. But I am sure now I'm not going to buy another pair from woodland again.
