Good soles, strong
Beat these boots up and they last. Use them for walking beat and swat.

Excellent Service and product
This is my 4th pair of boots, I would not have it any other way, Rocky boots are the way to go.

Extremely comfortable !!!!
Had a pair for 14 years, loved them. Recently purchased another pair for work, and forgot that there is NO break in period. Put them on out of the box and they felt like a "old friend" on my feet. Very comfortable and extremely durable. Keep up the good work Rocky.

Very comfortable, extremely light weight.
I bought these boots a few weeks ago. I recently bought a motorcycle and I have been looking for a good boot to wear while riding. Have wore them only a few times, but they are very comfortable right from the start. Extremely happy with the quality and feel.
Highly recommend.

Best piece of footwear I've ever owned.
I'm someone with special needs for my feet. I have very large feet and extremely high arches. My feet have even been reconstructed. As you can imagine, it is EXTREMELY difficult to find good shoes for me. These boots not only are comfortable andgood looking, they also conform to my arches (which is amazing), provide excellent support, fit me perfecly, and are very useful. I'm an engineer and I use these around the office and at job sites where even special boots are required.

Comfortable!
Bought these about a month ago and have been wearing them constantly! With my job title, I'm on my feet constantly and in all sorts of weather. They fit great without any breaking in necessary! They also have a mean look to them and don't not that "sneaker" look!

Absolutely
Had these a year now. Still holding up. Most comfortable boot I have ever owned. I am on my feet 10 hours a day,and I work in a shop with the bay doors open. My feet stay mostly warm. Waterproof? Definitely.
However... even though I give these 5 stars, here are the 2 areas of improvement.
1: Come with 96" Laces so I don't have to relace them every time I want to put them on.
2: Come with speed lace eyelets (like my jungles I wore in the Marine Corps in the 90s). One tug and they cinch right up. Would not take forever to lace them then.
Otherwise... get these if you want cheap and comfortable.

Superior comfort
These rocky alpha force boots are the most comfortable duty boots I've had. I am a corrections officer and my feet take a beating going up and down stairs and in my feet for 8 hours plus a day.

very comfortable! and aggressive tread
I hike the mountains quite a bit and these boots are very comfortable and have and aggressive tread which I like very much. I also like the zipper feature on the side, I wasn't sure if I would like them, but it makes it a lot easier to get in and out of, I am glad the zipper is made strong. overall, I am super happy with this boot, I have 2 sets of Rocky boots and for now on, I will only buy footwear from them!

"Solid and comfortable"
Given as a gift. Recipient wears them religiously and says, "My feet feel solid and comfortable". Can't ask for more than that.

A reliable work boot.!!
My boyfriend has had these shoes for 7 months and he loves them. They are warm and they do not fall apart. He works in landscaping blasting salt and grass all over them.the treading and padding are also holding up to his tough feet that do a dirty job everyday!

Durable and long lasting
I bought these boots for daily work wear. They have withstood abuse in all weather conditions and have kept my feet dry in snow and shallow water. The only negative I could give these boots is the lack of speed laces I became accustomed to in my military boots.

Love the boot but...
I have had a pair for about a year or so now. I wear them every day. No Im not law enforcement, or active duty military but I do live in the sticks and am on my feet all day. I really like my boots. the only issue I have is for the money the sole edges shouldn't fall apart so fast. I paid good money for these, they have now increased in price to over $100 and I shouldn't have to replace them every year!! Also the joint between the sole material and the leather at the toe shouldn't be separating either!! Not real pleased with Rocky return policy either. Once you have worn the boots you can't return them. I am not asking that I get years of service then return them, however the guys that have had issues with blisters and all should be able to return and there should be some sort of discount on a replacement pair if the issues are manufacturer related. my separations and sole failure are not environment related, more like poor quality glues and sole material.

Work Boot Purchased Recently
I purchased this boot for work. I work late shift for a local law enforcement agency. So far the boots have been very comfortable to wear. They have remained warm during a stretch of very cold weather. On my first week wearing the boot, I stepped out of my car into shin deep water puddle and the boot remained perfectly dry as advertised. The only complaint I have thus far is with the shoe laces. I think the design should be different to allow for easier lacing. Otherwise, I think this is a very good purchase for the price and I plan on buying a second pair soon so I can rotate wearing them.

Good boot but with one downside
I get a pair of these boots every year because they have been the most comfortable out of all the boots I've tried over 24 years in EMS. They have great tread and are very warm in the winter. There is a reason that I have to buy a pair every year and this has happened every year for the last 15 or so. The inner heel fabric at the back of the ankle starts to wear away and tear exposing the fiberglass inside and it is uncomfortable. My company allows uniform allowance and they are purchased through there, so I usually have to buy a new pair 6 to 10 months in before they are really broken in and the tread wears. I would love to enjoy these boot for longer. I would recommend re-enforcing that part of these boots so this does not happen.

good boot for rough country
While they are not the S2V boot, I have purchased this boot before and for my line of work in Law Enforcement it is the second best boot Rocky makes. The S2V being number 1, it holds up well I don't get thorns through the soul and its great in monsoon season, just wish they were made in the U.S.

Decent
This is the second pair of these boots I have owned. These are great winter boots. The first pair I owned lasted about 6 months before the tread lost its traction on slick surfaces. This pair lasted less than a month before the you the toes started coming off the boots. They scuff very easily. They also dont breath well and are a little uncomfortable with orthotic inserts.
I'm a big fan of Rocky boots but these do not give the brand justice.

Love the style!
I bought these boots about a month ago and still can’t get them broke in. They are not as comfortable as my last pair, though I love Rocky’s Boots I’m not satisfied with this pair.

Somewhat let down
I purchased Rocky duty boots in the early 2000's, both the regular and insulated versions of black zip up police duty boots. Those wore well and I simply tried Galls, Bates, Thorogood and 5.11 ATAC throughout my career. This winter when it was time to replace my boots, I found a great deal online for my size 13 Alpha Force boots and ordered another pair. The break in time was long as the boots were extremely stiff. Since November, padding on the inside near the heel has already worn through the material. I was disappointed that the laces are separating, particularly since they do not get tied and untied as I unzip or zip my boots to wear them. I guess I see why they were such a bargain.

Defect in leather
I purchased these boots, because they are the best option I can find in black without a zipper. They are also pretty affordable. The boots are of good quality, but I have two impressions in the leather that run the length of the toe on one of my boots. I thought the impressions would buff out, but they did not. A good shine only makes the impressions more noticeable. This is my second pair of these boots. I'm slightly disappointed, since I always keep them in the condition of at least a brush shine for my job as a police officer.
I work full time and my first identical pair of Rockies lasted for about two years. One of the heels finally ripped, so I shoe glued it, until the new pair arrived. I notice when I take these boots off, I have to be careful not to pull by the heels, as these already feel a little less secure than I would like.
I always order a half size small for long lasting snug fitting boots. Despite being the exact same boots I purchased two years ago, I notice a little discomfort in areas that seem to jab the top of my foot and lower calf area. I'm hoping to chalk that up to breaking these in, but I don't think I experienced that last time.
Next time around, I'll probably go on the hunt for different boots, or give in and buy boots with a side zipper.

Something has changed
I bought my fourth pair in February. They started leaking almost immediately and my toes rub in one shoe. I did not anticipate having a bad experience but i will probably not buy these ever again.

Not what I hoped for
I purchased these approximately 1 year ago. I wore them twice and had blisters on both of my feet. They are able to hold a good shine and look nice however, they are terribly uncomfortable, heavy and HOT. I started wearing them again a week ago forgetting why I stopped wearing them and figured I hadn't given them a fair chance. After 1 week, my feet are terrible sore at the end of the day, and the blisters are back. I would not recommend these.
