This boot lasted half of my career
by Guest
As career LT with a very busy FD this boot lasted close to 10 years! They could have lasted another 5 - 10 years. They have been in water, mud, ash, you name it and my feet were safe and dry. The foam insoles are absolutely the best feature. I don't think I will need to buy another pair of boots again before I retire!
Q&A's:
"Are these waterproof?"
Nick, there are 4 models of the Gen Flex2 8"" side zip boots, 3 of them are listed as waterproof, guess which one isn't? The model you have picked here is not water proof.
"steel or composite toe? or none?"
Hi Ryan this boot has a soft toe, no steel or composite, sorry.
"what type of toe protection and sole protection dose this boot offer"
This boot does not come with a composite or steel toe, it's a soft toe
"How do I decide medium or wide width?"
Andrew that's a question you should know, are you wearing a wide shoe or boot now? When you purchase a new pair of shoes do you just walk in find the size you want and buy them, or do you look for a pair that have the same sizing that you have on? In other words you are wearing a size 9D that's what you would buy, not a size 9W. A medium width is a ""D"" and a wide is a ""E"".
"Is that patent leather on the toe cap and heel?"
Tony the toe and heel are ""black smooth high-shine polishable leather toe cap heel counter""
"Are the sizes listed men's or women's?"
All of the sizes listed are men's sizes.
"im not sure what size of boot I need how can i find out?"
Mike these boots run true to size of the athletic shoe size, so if your wearing a size 10 go with that.
"What is the proper care to keep the high shine on toe and heal"
Just wipe it clean. These are pretty low maintenance.
"IM A FEMALE , ARE THESE BOOTS UNISEX OR MEN SIZES? IF I WEAR A 7.5 , WHAT SIZE SHOULD I ORDER FOR A FEMALE?"
These are men's sizes. If you wear a 7.5 women's, order a 5.5 Men's.
"Hi I am wondering if you sell this boot in women's size 8 1/2?"
Hi Wanda, this is what Thorogood calls a ""Dual-Gender Sizing"" boot, you will need to order a men's size 6 1/2, which equals a women's 8 1/2. hope this helps you.
"does this boot come in composite or steel toe?"
These boots only have a soft toe cap.
"I wear a female size 7 MW in rockys. What size would I wear in these for a female?"
Without being able to size your foot we cannot accurately say what size you would be in these boots. Your best option is to order the size you normally wear. If they do not fit you can exchange them for another size.
