Rocky Boots has introduced new Worksmart Waterproof Work Boots for rugged work areas and jobs requiring waterproof protection. Made in the USA with USA and globally sourced components, new boots feature waterproof full grain leather uppers. The boots are designed to keep your feet dry, as you take on different types of tasks on construction sites.

RKK0453

This boot features the Rocky Air-Port Comfort Footbed, serving as a high-performance, cushioning and comfortable footbed that will keep you on your feet. With an added fiberglass shank, the product offers more stability and a focused fit. This model meets ASTM F2892 electrical hazard standard. The outsole is made of oil- and slip-resistant rubber.

RKW0429

This model is protected by a tough rubber and polyurethane outsole that is oil-, slip- and abrasion-resistant. Like the RKK0453, the boot features waterproof full grain leather helping keep your feet dry in damp or wet work areas. Rocky's expansion fit seam stretches when putting the boot on and then returns to its original shape for a comfortable fit. Additionally, the Rocky Rebound footbed helps operators stay on their feet during long work hours. This boot meets ASTM F2892 electrical hazard standard.
