Rocky ParaTrooper side zip boots
5/15/2012 9:19:55 AM
Anyone here have a pair or tried a pair of the Rocky side zipper para trooper boots? Opinions on these ? Comfortable? Durable?

Terribly uncomfortable for me. Sized right, but the arches hit me wrong, too far forward.

Really. Ok. Thanks. They look well made. But no stores around me carry then to try on.

These???: first hit in google...http://www.galls.com/style-SP720-general_catalog-rocky-mens-10-inch-side-zipper-paratrooper-boot?
Heck no. Don't ever voluntarily wear a jump boot style boot. Don't even think about it.
OP, What type of stuff are you looking to do with your boots?

"Here you can see the tear about midway up the laces, the scratches on the snap are from having to re-seat/replace the snap, and the heel is starting to separate from the rest of the boot. Never had this happen with any other brand. I was leery of ordering boots, for fear that they would not right right. So i picked these up locally, and learned my mistake."

Maybe try original swat boots, I think they are pretty comfy, and not super $$$$.

Had a pair years ago that were great. Bought a second pair maybe 2 years ago. Sent them back without even trying them on. Looked and felt cheap. Zippers weren't ykk and leather looked down right fake.

OP....get these
I have a pair of Airpower R1's (EMS Station boots) that are six or seven years old. I wear them 2-3 days a week for the better part of 12-16 plus hours. Never hurt my feet and they last.
