ROCKYMobiLite Steel Toe Waterproof Work Boots

I love these boots. This is my 5th or 6th pair of these boots, usually getting about 1.5 to 2 years out of each pair. I'm a chemical process operator and maintenance electrician working 12 hour shifts, in a chemical factory (on concrete), and these boots keep my feet happy. They are waterproof and haven't let me down in the many years I've been wearing them. The toe box is wide and comfortable and the electrical hazard rating helps keep me safe while doing electrical work.The only thing I do to these boots is hose them off daily, or if I get anything on them and rub in some leather protectant a few times per year. They would last even longer if I took better care of theme. Two of my coworkers are now buying these boots because of how happy I have been with them.

Comfortable and rugged

I bought a pair of these boots in Richland Washington a few years back - I was a on a short term assignment with DOE and didn't bring my boots with me from my home state. That was ok though because I was getting ready to deploy to Afghanistan anyway and knew that a new pair of boots would probably come in handy. When I first put them on, they were stiff and hurt my ankles something fierce. The top of the boot was always rubbing against the top of my ankle - in the same spot over and over again. It was even starting to show a bit of a bruise. But I liked the lite weight of the boot, the waterproofing, I thought the angled toe was cool, the styling was rugged - and I also knew that boots always require some break in time - so I decided to just chill and see what happens. By the time they finally broke in, I was away from Hanford and already in Afghanistan. I just noticed one day that I was getting off work with no need to take them off for something more comfortable - they just became pliable - yet they were durable and seemed to mould to my feet. That's comfort I have never experienced in a boot b4 - that's saying a lot for boots you have on for 12 hours a day, seven days a week. I wore them through my whole tour in Afghanistan. I am now in Doha and I just ordered another pair.The only con I can think of is the laces - if you're going to be out somewhere remote with these boots, take an extra pair of laces with you - you'll need them [hence the 4 stars instead of 5]. Luckily, I was around a bunch of Marines and they had plenty of mil spec laces - Anyway, I think you guys get my point. Rocky really scored on this one. If you want a solid performer with a firm base that is super lite and oh so comfortable [after break in] - look no further :>)

The media could not be loaded. This is my second pair. My first pair lasted just over a year. Very comfortable and usable right out of the box didn't have to break them in. The only issue I had with my first pair is the start eyelet punched a hole through the leather after about a year. As a plumber I'm always on my knees or squatting down so the boot folded enough to make the toe touch the eyelet.2/16/17I still love the boots but..one problem I've had with both pairs I've had is the first set of eyelets eventually cuts through the leather if you squat a lot. In other words the eyelet touches the toe and cuts through, ruining the waterproofing of the boot. I know I'm writing this a year and a couple of months later but I noticed it approx after 9 Months.What are these in September of 2021 it's January of 2022 and the whole upper half of the back of the boot has separated from the leather very disappointed.

These boots fit me well and are unusually comfortable for work boots. I prefer to wear steel toe boots, but I have a foot that is very hard to fit- narrow in the heel and wide in the toe. The larger toe box allowed me to order these in a standard width. I have enough room for my toes but not have a slipping heel. The padded fabric tongue is comfortable, but hot. The boots are hot overall, which I associate with waterproof boots; I would prefer boots that breathe. I like the lacing system. The laces pull smoothly through the guides, and hooks don't collapse or break like I have experienced in more expensive boots. The fit and comfort these boots offer are worth a 5 star review. Time will tell how durable they are.

I love these boots . They have a wide toe box fit well.

I've been buying these boots for many years. I work in a plant where steel toe and slip resistant boots are required. I'm on my feet 8-12 hours a day, 7 days a week, and these boots are very comfortable. I usually put a work boot insole inside for extra comfort. Wearing these are like wearing a pair of sneakers. They're light, break in easily, and the steel tip never rubs my toes or wears holes in my socks. I wear a size 12 wide, and I would never know that I'm wearing work boots. I highly recommend these work boots for people who are on their feet several hours a day.

Boot feel apart in 4 month- should be able to hold up better.
