rocky boots
OK guys there is big boot store about the size of a normal walmart down the road.
I went there today to find a camo boot. The guy said he wanted to measure my foot that he did not think i was a 15 4e . He asked to see my shoe. He said that new balance is made in china and they make two size d and 4e he said the d and 4e are the same shoe with a different label. and that these boot were size right. I tryed a 15 2e on one foot and a 15 4e on the other the 15 2e was alittle tight but fit ok the only problem i had was getting it on since it is waterproof the tongue is sawn to the shoe all the way up. So i told him Friday i would come back and get the 2e What worries me is if the shoe is tight what will it be like with a heavy sock on. what do youthink the 4e was alittle loose but not much. |
RE: rocky boots
also do you think i would need a heavy sock with a 600 gram boot i am in southwest indiana
|
RE: rocky boots
get the one that was a little loose....if ur boot is too tight with heavy socks on, it actually makes ur feet colder because blood circulation is cut off and the boot doesnt have room to create a little pocket of warm air

RE: rocky boots
15 4E [&:]
Get the bigger one. |

I'm a EEE myself...My whole life (I'll be 53 in August) shoe salesmen have tried to cram my foot into a shoe that doesn't fit...
Don't throw your money away, buy them too big, never too small, socks are cheap... I wear 2 pairs of socks anyway, this keeps your feet from blistering, I learned that when I played football, holds true with boots as well... |
RE: rocky boots
Go big! I've made that mistake before.

RE: rocky boots
the guy said there 600 gram and i can always were some wool socks but not sure i would get them on with wool socks i think i will go bigger
|
RE: rocky boots
the best thing to do is to try the shoe on with a sock that is similar to the one you will wear. In my experience of being a shoe salesman.....go with the bigger one if you cannot try it on with the sock. The 2e will stretch a little, but may not be enough

RE: rocky boots
well they are leather and camo not sure there going to stretch much

RE: rocky boots
I have a pair 0f 1400 gram(winter bowhuntin)and all I did was wear my base socks then a wool sock over them and tried on 3 differant ones,walked out with the Deer Stalker II's but that was 8 or so yrs ago,still wear em with no regrets.....
Have another pair of Rocky Boots(light weight Extreme Elite)Iam breaking in for my Muly and speed goat hunt,hope they last like my old ones.. |
RE: rocky boots
leather stretches way more than you think.....especially after the leather gets wet. I am betting that the camo is made out of cordura which is a tough material. Like i said before and others have stated......try the boots on with the sock you will be wearing.

RE: rocky boots
WHO makes a 15 4E boot, brand and model, been looking for years and have never seen one listed by anyone...
|
RE: rocky boots
go bigger, youll wanna wear big socks. hell sometimes i gotta wear a couple pairs of warm socks to keep my feet from freezing

RE: rocky boots
Is the show store nameD "WORKING PERSONS BOOTS"? If so I just ordered a pair of bates duty boots much cheaper then the uniform stores in my area and cheaper then any other store on-line.
When getting new hunting boots (which I need) I goto the store and bring with me the sock and or socks I will wear while hunting, I always get at least one size bigger then what I need. You want space in the show so your feet can breath, if it is to tight you feet will freeze, and yes you need wool socks with 600gram boots, especially if your sitting all day, at least I know I do. Nothing sucks more then wet/cold feet |
RE: rocky boots
You'll be really sorry if you buy boots too tight. You have to have plenty of room for heavier sock and to allow you to move your foot/toes a little bit. If they're too tight sitting in a store, they'll be colder than hell on a cold day. I don't care how much insulation they have. You have to have room to move your toes.
