Veteran firefighters know how important this can be on pitched roofs, embankments and other inclined surfaces.

    Feels like a custom fit

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Sep 19th 2017

    Love these boots. Foot locks into boot for a snug fit. Awesome support and protection all around. Great side tread for crawling. They do loosen up after they are broke in, so don't let a slightly tight fit around the foot and ankle scare you. Comfortable liner that doesn't detach and fall down like many other boots that the guys have. Very comfortable boot all around!

    Thorogood 14"" knockdown elite boots

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Feb 8th 2017

    These boots exceeded my expectation and are far better than my old rubber boots. They were a little stiff when new but wear in nice and are very comfortable. The siping on the soles is nice and provides great grip. I highly recommend these boots and will definitely be buying another pair when these wear out!

    Not a bad boot

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Nov 24th 2014

    I liked this boot with our recent tests. But it was heavier and less confortable than my favorite pair. Also, I was surprised to see that for a boot of this price the liner wasn't even a Crosstech.
