Rocky Snake Proof Boots are Great !!!
These boots really do the job with preventing snake bites from getting to your legs, ankles, or feet and they are really comfortable. We wear them on our Farm year round as we get support for ankles and they are comfortable. We Highly recommend these boots for everyone.

Long lasting boots
I bought these boots about 8 years ago. I have about 50 miles on them and they are still doing good. They only thing I added was some good insoles for long hikes. I definitely recommend these to anyone.

Very comfortable.
Purchased these about 3 weeks ago to replace and aging pair of lace-up snake boots. After weighing all features in several brands, I settled on the Retractions. These are light and required almost no break-in period. They run true to size as I normally wear 11W and that's what I ordered. Fit great. Zippers are YK2 brand metal. I am satisfied with fitment and quality. So far, the waterproofing is untested, but I expect Rocky to honor the 1-year warranty if that becomes an issue.

Zippers are useless
This is a great boot however the plastic zippers on the side are almost impossible to zip. So I just leave them unzipped and use the Velcro on the boot top to secure them around my legs.

Needs improvement
These might be great snake boots, but the lining flap is to close to the zipper. My zipper got stuck in that flap and was impossible to get unstuck. Also the zipper is to stiff. It’s hard zippering up and down. Lastly, the calf area should be wider. It’s to thin and I’m not fat.

Problems with the zippers
We have a problem! The boots fit fine, BUT using the zipper is very difficult. It appears the zipper is picking up some of the material on the inside, making it very difficult to raise or lower the zipper. If I don't use a pair of pliers I cannot pull the zipper up or down. Before long the piece the pliers hold will break off, then how will I use the zipper? It appears there is a need for an additional sewed seam along both sides of the zipper on the inside. This appears to be a quality control problem.

Not what they used to be.
The boot is not what it used to be. I've been buying these for years, and now, might go to a Danner snake boot.

Finally found something that fits me and my feet
Finally found something that fits me and they’re comfortable with easy on, easy off. I’ve walked through some stuff and they’ve been great. It’s been a rough time for me finding something that works for me. I did pretreat with that water proofing spray just because these aren’t rubber

The best!
I have a very serious foot injury where my foot is now over pronated and my heel is swollen permanently; these boots are the only ones I could find that don’t hurt my foot after standing in them for over an hour; these are accurate on the size; I just wish they came in regular brown leather color, but it doesn’t really matter because I’m wearing them in a swampy environment so I can work my property safely.

Zipper broke into two pieces
The fabric on the inside of the zipper gets caught in the zipper making it very difficult, sometimes possible, to move the zipper up or down without tearing the fabric that’s caught in the zipper or the fabric along the stitching for the zipper. These were a year old but only worn during the winter last season on the weekends. Last night the metal zipper on one of the boots broke into two separate halves. The material around the heels is cracking and the fabric on 1 got torn by some brush near the cuff and frayed. Seems like they’d hold up longer than 1 season of weekend wear for the price.

Good boot bad zippers
1year old boots and the zippers are coming loose from the material. I like the weight and wear them about everyday but I bought another pair that are lace up because I was afraid of the zipper failure.

Leaked first time-2nd and last pair of Rocky
I got these a week ago and went out in a canoe today. When I got back my feet were soaked. Glad I was not on a long Turkey hunt. My last pair of Rocky were Gortex and they also leaked. Rocky makes you send them back prior to refund or credit where I bought. So I am totally done with Rocky.

Comfortable for long hikes-so far waterproof
I had some Athletic type of Rocky boots and they leaked, in fact they got sent to Gortex and I'm waiting to hear what they are going to do about it. Meanwhile I got brave and got another pair of these boots and I'm just back from a 5 mile hike with a tree stand 2.5 miles. My feet are dry and don't hurt. I was told they would stretch a half size and they were right. A bit taller than I would like but for deep water it's better. The zipper protectors are always coming loose. I see they only have a 6 month waterproof guarantee so see how it holds up. From what I can see you do not want to get bitten by a venomous snake so I hope these work. I like them but will love them if they hold up for a few years. PS watch where you sit down in the Florida woods. Like Tonto said to the Lone Ranger, Kemosabe, your gonna die!

Comfortable and easy on and off
I received this pair of boots as a prize several years ago. Sportsman banquet. Second time wearing the left boot would not unzip. The inner material was in the zipper. I manage to get them down about halfway and the zipper grasp broke. No returns or warranty without a receipt. I still wear them but was surprized at the way Rocky reacted. I told them right up front where I got them. Oh well. I have several pair of their boots and have had no ither problems. This may be a problem with zip up boots.
