Great Boots. Great Price. Buy in a wider size or go up a size!
I’m just rating off of my initial impression and from wearing them to work for 1 week so far. Rockys have by far been my favorite boot to wear in uniform for quite some time. I have been wearing the S2V Predators for the past year, which are a good boot, and have lasted me pretty long, but I was looking for something lighter weight. I came across these and figured at the price point I’d give them a shot. I’m glad I took the previous reviews warnings about them running a bit narrow, because I bought them in a 14W and they fit just about how a normal 14 would fit me, so if you’re buying these take that into consideration. That being said, they are great so far! Very noticeably lighter than the S2v’s and very comfortable! It took me about 2 12 hour days at work to break them in a bit, but it wasn’t a very painful break in process compared to other boots. I dig the minimalist style and low profile to these boots because I already have huge feet and don’t need any extra bulk on them. Going off of my first week of wearing them, I would definitely recommend these! Will update if anything changes.

My third pair
These are good boots. I'm on my third pair. I have very wide feet, and these are the only footwear I can find that doesn't blister up my little toes. I wear them for adventure racing. A typical day is 30 miles under a 45# pack. They do great.I do have gripes. The toe box is too short in height and there's a seam that rubs on the top of my foot. It's miserable at first. I now break them in by filling them with hot water and letting them soak, then walking them dry. I find that doing this twice gets them to fit my feet perfectly.My second gripe is relative to the soles. They are both slippery and soft. I'm on my third pair because I walked the tread right off the last two pairs in fairly short order. Worse, the traction is barely adequate. As I get nearer to this years race I intend to take a dremel tool to the soles and open up the tread pattern a bit to get some more grip. At last years race I could barely keep my footing on a steep hillside covered in dry grass.Overall, though, I love the big toebox, the cushy sole, and the very light weight.

Rocky boots are always great.
I have worn Rockies ever since I was in the military. They always make great boots. I especially love them since they wear a 15 wide and I don’t have to worry about them fit correctly.

Quality built, a little tight
I'm a fan of the lightweight boot styles, so I grabbed these to give them a shot. Checked the sizing chart, ordered a pair to wear for work and when I play airsoft. Initial impression was I liked the material. Around the cuff of the boot, it is a little too...puffy than what I prefer. No big deal, pretty easy to over look. Tried to use a couple techniques to get them a little worn in before I used them for long periods of time. Had to wear them for short periods of time initially, didn't want to seem to break in. I was able to wear them for about an hour and a half before I had to loosen them to give my feet some rest. I now have probably 150+ hours wearing these boots, and the sides still bother my feet a little bit. I found it to irritate the top of my feet, and the insides of my heals causing minor blistering or un-comfort. That seems to be subsiding slowly, but the rubbing around my right pinky toe is still bothering me a bit. Overall I'm happy with them, I'm just wondering if my complaints will subside with a little bit more wear or if there will always be some level of un-comfort.

No Go.
These are hot garbage. Very weird fit around the heel. Do not buy.

Poorly made
Not a great boot. Don’t waste your money. Each had a different texture. Not as advertised. Have bought same exact type before but they aren’t even remotely the same.
