Rocky IGS Waterproof Zip-Side Safety Boot for Men, Composite Toe

Great boots. From day one no rubbing. Little bit bulky and you can’t pull them too tight as then can’t do up the zip. Very good grip and so far great in the mud and water.

Absolutely fantastic boot. 2 and a half years of daily wear later, I have only needed to have a cobbler repair the soles due to rubber wear, and replace the zippers once. Any decent cobbler will replace the zippers with ease, and it only cost me a fiver per boot, so absolutely cannot balk at that. Sad to say mine have eventually given up completely and the sole has split in two, but this was caused by the cobbler's repair and certainly not a fault of the boot! Aside from a little wear around the top of the ankle, they are in great shape still! Absolutely top marks for these boots. Will definitely buy again, once I can afford them!

Very comfy, strong, quick on and off. 2 months in to use and standing up to 100hr weeks on the farm.

They was comfortable straight out the box wide fitting at the toe and narrow enough at the heel to stop my feet lifting inside them. Completely waterproof. They took a bit of creasing in. I'm a joiner and spend a lot of time on my knees, boots normally crease in pretty quickly but these took longer than normal. I was starting to doubt them until I realized that they was fitting very snug. Tonnes of ankle support and the zipped sides make them easy on and off. I also walk the dogs wearing them for miles at a time. At first I thought the boots were a little expensive but now worth the extra money. The photo is 2 dry wall screws I had picked up at work ,they must have been there a while judging by the wear on the heads , I had not felt them at all but found them whilst cleaning update…. I have now been wearing them around a year now and wear them 5 days a week for work, these are by far the most comfortable pair of boots I have owned to date and after 40 years as a carpenter in the building trade I have worn the cheapest to the most expensive brands on the market. These boots are like new still only wear that’s noticeable is they are a little worn inside where my heel rubs, insoles still feel great although the ball under the heel was at first a little weird and took a little getting used to. I am sure I will be updating this in a years time again. I never get much over a year out of a pair of boots if even a year. Worth the extra money? Dam right they are. They just get more snug and being completely waterproof and let’s face it dry feet and warm feet are especially important this time of year

I was initially very impressed with the boots. They seemed strong, comfortable and durable. But sadly, after owning them for the last 4 months and wearing them to work (I work in Locations on film) 5 days a week i can tell you that they don't hold up. First, the zip up sides are completely useless. When first putting the boots on I zipped up the sides them lased up the boot to get a good fit. However when you unzip the sides to remove your foot there's not enough room to get out (let alone put them on later. I found that to take advantage of this quick on and off feature that the boots are sold to have you a left with a loose boots when wearing them. But even then, the zips slid down endlessly throughout the day and needed to be pulled up again to maintain a tight fit. Second the water proofing. This works gret untill any water meets the tongue. After this the games over and I can feel water entering. This is strange because the idea of the zip being lined with leather behind is meant to increase its waterproofing. Again making the zip an even more useless feature. Third, both zips on the shoes have failed. The pull tag on one zip has come off and I need to pull it up with a pair of pliers. And the other zip has lost teeth and is unable to move in either direction.

Bought a pair last October and just had to buy a new pair. Considering that I wear them everyday for approximately 15 hours and they have had to endure water, mud and animal manure on the farm I think I have had my money's worth out of them! My feet were consistently dry and warm right until last week so a big plus there. The manure that they are nearly always coated in generally washed off well. The only slight fault I had was the zips but I put that down to heavy handed user error! I broke one and although I expect I could have returned it I figured since it broke through my fault I would soldier on. That was 11 plus months ago and the boot did not leak because of it. The other one seized - probably due to the manure getting in between the teeth and I am sure if I had bothered to clean them it would have solved the problem but doing up laces (that lasted till the end) wasn't any great problem. So I have bought another pair and will treat the zips with a bit more care.

These are some of the best boots I've ever bought. 99% waterproof, comfortable, secure. Just the ever lasting issue I have - Being a roofer, they just don't last. 5 months in (not even every day) and the toe cap is showing, stitching is failing in the crease, no longer water tight... So the question is, is it worth 2 - 3x the price for v12s or go with a less expensive version and last almost the same? I have to say those first few months we're a dream but I can't justify £220 a year on footware going at this rate, 2 pairs wouldn't last a year.

These boots are great, waterproof, hard wearing and comfortable, I work for the local council and the boots they supply are pitiful so I got these. This is the second pair that I’ve bought and they last about a year unlike the rubbish my firm supplied. Highly recommended
