What Customers Are Saying
The boots are generally comfortable, durable, and functional, with features like good traction and water resistance appreciated by many users. However, some common issues were noted, such as the leather and finish scratching easily, zipper problems, and relatively quick wear of the soles. A few reviewers also had problems with leaks or premature failure. Overall, the boots seem to be a good choice for many users, but some quality control concerns were raised.

Pure awesomeness of a Boot
Best boots I have ever had. My favorite style and well made. I hope ROCKY never quits making this boot. Planning on buying more.

Disappointed ex-customer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, it took almost a month to get the boots. Second, I ordered 11.5 EE and I got 11.5 W so they don't fit right and they hurt my feet so I won't be wearing them. Looks like I'll be donating them to the local thrift store because I won't waste any more money on this.

My third pair of Rocky boots. First two pair were great. The third pair I ordered ripped around the top section after a couple of months. The boots were replaced with no headache, now the pair which were replaced have done the same thing.

Best service boot available!
The boot is the best service boot I have ever purchased. It has a good amount of leather in front and back to polish for presentation. The fact that it's waterproof makes it serviceable in all weather conditions. The zipper is heavy duty and will not strip out like lesser boots. My only complaint is it is a bit overpriced. I can only buy them on sale.

UNBELIEVABLE
Shipping was unbelievable fast. Had the boots in less than a week from the day ordered ( Weekend less). The soles wear out quickly on concrete floors. I’m on wood right now so lasting a long time. The thread used finally gave out. If a stronger thread was used I’d still be wearing my previous pair. I sewed them up and wore them a few more days. The second spot that finally gave away is on the side of the boot where it melted together. Cause could have been wearing out in the snow an...
