Rothco 8'' Forced Entry Black Side Zip Boot

Unlike some boots, these will require a break in period! That said, I prefer them over others as I know they will last. The size fits larger than expected, but well within "tolerance." The fact that the zipper goes so low is actually a good thing, as your not RIPPING your foot out of the boot, but it is an easy slide out without damaging the inside leather after a sweaty hot day.

I ordered a 6W. The boots are too long, the toe box is way too small (definitely not a C/D width) and then the heel cap is WAY too big. My heel slips up almost a full inch with every step.

I was confused on the sizing information and purchased a female's boot instead of a male's boot. I had to return them and the company issued a refund immediately.

Woman; who got a Men's size 6- perfect. I have skinny, flat feet with a very skinny heel! Wide toe box! I think I tried 4 pairs of boots before I saw these. Imagine my shock that these fit so well! I have regular high work boots that I use for my never-ending yard work!! They do not have a zipper. I have the worlds worst back- failed back surgery; so I really needed a pair of boots with a zipper because I can barely walk after yard work! These are so cool looking that I almost don't want to wear them in the yard. They are light, excellent grip on the bottoms, comfortable, my feet stay in them-no sloppy walking! I did spray these with waterproofing- hoping if thy get dirty-which they will; that I can brush them off! I am thrilled with these-and their looks! If I do beat them up; I'd definitely buy the same pair again! Oh-last point is that the zipper works great-no sticking, no issues! Highly, highly recommend! Look no further!
