Ratings & Reviews for Rocky Men's Black Waterproof Boots Size: 8.5 Medium

Best boots ever.

I bought these boots 15 years ago still wear them. They're hands down the best boots I've ever owned l will never buy anything but boots from this company.

Extremely Narrow Toe-Bed/Size Up

I have especially narrow size 7.5 feet, for a woman. I needed the men’s equivalent to a women’s size 8 (sizing up so that I could wear padded socks). So, I purchased the men’s size 6 medium thinking men’s shoes will already be wide. These are so narrow in the toe-box that I come home after a 12 hour shift with permanent creases in my feet from my pinky toe being scrunched beneath my foot within the shoe. The insole has no padding either, so size up and go with the wide width if you have a narrow...

Awesome Boots

I bought these boots last year and I LOVE them!!! I would recommend these boots to anybody!! They are comfortable, and supportive. I will definitely be purchasing more!!

Extremely comfortable

One of THE MOST comfortable boots I have ever worn. They run a bit small, in my opinion. I am attempting to stretch them out and break them in. Overall comfortable and truly waterproof.

Tore apart in less than a month

I bought this a month ago, & they literally broke. I do do a lot of walking in them for work, but no heavy labor, so I’m not understanding why they already tore apart. Do not buy!!

Duty boot

These boots are very nice and very well-made, but I need to return them as they do not fit me. They are too tight

These Boots Last

I was issued a pair of these when I started EMT school. After three years and an estimated 5000 hours on shift they are just as structural as solid as when I got them. These boots last! They have kept my feet bone dry even though I have stepped in more things than I'd like to think about. They are very comfortable and have great arch support. I finally went and replaced them with another pair of Alpha Force Boots from Rocky. I have no reason to buy anything else. These are exceptional boots and ...

Perfect boot

Good fit, Long lasting water proof boots that look good enough for a uniformed cop, a trucker or biker. Light weight for hiking.

Awesome comfort

I bought my first pair 2 years ago just now buying a new pair

Extremely comfortable

I've bought several pairs of Alpha-force boots for work over the years and have never had a light weight better fitting boot they fit like a glove and I have plantar fasciitis so I need good arch support..I do commercial pressure washing so I need a boot that stays dry and comfortable for long hours and these are them..I usually trash them long before they're worn out so I go through a pair about every 6-8 months..but hands down these are the perfect work boot I only gave 4 stars cause I wish ...

I think I've finally found what I need

I used to alternate days wearing Rocky Alpha Force boots and roughly similar boots from another manufacturer. When both of those pairs of boots were starting to wear out after years of use and I was ready to buy new ones, I had to make a choice; Rocky, or the other brand. I chose to buy 2 pairs of the Alpha Force boots, and now I'm rotating those. They're broken in, and breaking in didn't take long. These are comfortable. Owning 2 pairs and wearing them on alternating days keeps everything dry (...

Great Boot

Great boot so far. I've only used them for about a week and a half. They broke in fairly quickly about a day. The last pair of Rocky boots I had held up for a couple years. Hoping these will last just as long.

But for one thing

Excellent grip. Waterproof works well. The inside lining a a pantyhose thin material that tears at the heel after a dozen or so wears. Then the plastic that gives the heel shape digs into feet. Easy to fix but seems Rocky doesn’t care. Warranty will replace them but just for another pair that’ll do the same. Buy something else.

Great boot

Really good boot. Polishes well. They are comfortable and don’t hurt my feet to wear for long periods. I actually have two pairs. One insulated for the colder months. My only complaint would be the Velcro on the zipper cover pretty well sucks after about a month. Otherwise I’d say they were perfect.

Great boots

Just bought my second pair of these, best boots out there for the price, comfortable and sturdy.

Alpha Force 8" Boot w/Zippers

Excellent/comfortable boots. GREAT Price. Fast shipping. Well worth the price.

Exemplary Service by Alan in Customer Care.

Alan went above and beyond in assisting me with my order. The boots were promptly shipped out and received in record time. Thanks again Alan for your assistance. Rocky Boots should be glad to have you as one of their dedicated employees. The boot that I ordered was the Medic 1. So far I have only high praise for the product.

Good Quality

Used daily for work, last pair lasted several years.

Helps me deliver packages

Great, supportive, waterproof, comfortable, functional boot. Just one more tool to help me do my job. I have lost track of how many UPS peak seasons as a delivery driver these boots have gotten me through. I am a big guy and i am hard on shoes. If my feet aren't happy, u'm not working
