Rover GORE-TEX Reviews

Good town shoe

Great ice traction, somehow mud and dirt just falls off the cloth. Not warm and hard to get on and off, but I wear em any day it's gonna be nasty outside for work.

Love em

Comfy

I like the shoes, but

I like the shoes, but they are very hard to get on. They are just very, very tight sliding through the hole.

Great versatile shoe

I bought this for travelling, hiking, and being a quick shoe to put on around the house. I enjoy it, I'm glad it is as tall as it is. Would definitely buy another pair.

Not up to Sitka standards

These shoes look nice but that is where it ends. They are incredibly difficult to get your foot into and once you eventually do get them on, the footbed is almost completely flat. They are very uncomfortable. This is my first bad experience with any piece of Sitka Gear. All the other gear has been exceptional in every way.

great product

Rover GTX

These are not very comfortable and seem to run a bit big. I wear an 11 1/2 and bought the 11 since they were whole sizes and it’s still pretty big. Also the neck is very tight and takes a lot of work to get on your feet.

good shoe

Good shoe but needs more cushion on the sole

Rover boots

These boots are awesome! Comfortable and light. I bought these to wear in the log yard this spring and for cruising timber. They have kept my feet warm when the temps are under 30 with wool socks and comfy when the temps are almost 50. I will be buying these again

Not very comfortable. Not much arch support

Good looking shoe but uncomfortable

I purchased this shoe with the intention of replacing the wear of an xtra-tuff. The shoe itself is nice, durable, waterproof and lightweight BUT the shoe is a pain in the butt to get on. Once the shoe is on, the top of it rub the back of my ankle like crazy even with calf socks on. If they would remove the top or make it more open to not rub, I think it would outdo the xtra-tuff.

Extremely uncomfortable

I have lots of Sitka gear and love it all. However these Rover boots have been a major disappointment. For one, they are hard to get on because the ankle hole is so tight. Secondly the ankle area is so tight it destroyed the back of my ankles in just 5 min of walking. I have tried 3 diff times now and the same thing each time. It’s not even blisters, it’s like actual cutting into my leg. I wore them yesterday and besides the cuts they produced I have a painful line on the back of my foot where the top of the boot was way too tight. Majorly bummed by these.

Quality Boot

This is a great casual boot. Great for around the house, running to the store, leisure stroll around the property. I have no issue with getting on or off, as many of the reviews state. I can see where someone may have that issue if they have wide feet, or big angles. The boot definitely needs to break in before becoming comfortable. If you are someone with fat feet, fat ankles and need a workhorse boot this is not it.

Hard to put on.

They are a pain getting them on your feet.

Give them a chance !. Awesome boots

At first I wasnt sure with the first pair I bought. But after using them a couple time they kinda breakin. At the beginning they were kinda hard, I think a slightly more comfortable interior sole would help have a better first feeling of the boots.   Right now they are literally my go to shoes even in winter ! Thats why i bought a 2nd pair. Also would love some half-size.

Great until straps started falling apart

Love the shoes for everyday wear in and around the house. Perfect for mild weather walking to stand and can layer thicker sock for colder weather. I bought these as soon as they came out and have been happy until a couple weeks ago. I’ve worn them probably 3 or 4 days a week now. The front and back straps at the opening started coming loose and ripped off on my left shoe. The right shoe straps seem to be coming loose from the stitching as well now. Is this potentially a warranty claim?

Good shoes

Nice shoes to wear casually without worrying about getting occasional off road trail

Looks great but comfort could be improved

The neoprene around the ankles are too damn small and built like theyre meant for a child. Im a size 8. 5 and got size 9s and struggle to even get them on.

Couldn't get them on

Could not even get the boots on. Opening is too narrow.

Not completely happy

Shoes are nice, look good. Comfort rating about 5 out of 10. If you wear them with low socks, the collar around the top of the shoe will rub blisters. I got size 10, I wear a 10. 5 and the are loose.

These are great I use

These are great I use them for early season bow hunting. Fit good light weight. I’d recommend.

Fits well

Nice boots. It does take extra effort to get foot in boot.

Do not recommend.

Extremely uncomfortable, the back of the boot will have the top of your achilles tendon rubbed raw in less than a hour of walking.

They r ok

I do not have wide feet and a standard shoe size of 10. 5 these fit well when on but take some effort to slip on , definitely a two handed sitting down kinda thing . But once on they are comfortable (I use after market insoles) and waterproof. The cuff at top I could see causing chafing if u used all day although I have not had issue yet but for short stints around camp or walking dogs they have been perfect. I would recommend but as above these are not slip in slip out cover lots of distance kinda shoe.

Fit is funky

I ordered these in my normal size, 11, and they were way too big. Sent them in for the next size smaller and the length was good but they were super narrow, and I don't have wide feet. Very disappointing since I was looking forward to these.

Rovers

I added insoles to the boots to give me a little support.

good boot

I really enjoy these boots just haven't found a specific use for them yet. They are not something I would hike in all day but have been useful for working after a rain. wish they came in a half size. 11 was to small and 12 to big. I always have to wear thick socks to make them fit better.

Boot Review

I have a ton of Sitka and love the clothing. . . and was really looking forward to getting these boots for fishing and just wearing in the fall and winter. I was highly dissapointed in them. there is zero support in the bottoms of these(Like ZERO) and are just not comfortable at all. i wore them out an evening and fishing all day yesterday and they just are not good in any way shape or form other than the Gore Tex. I have wider feet and my feet still hurt from wearing them all day on the boat yesterday. (not their fault on that). Just the Zero support throughout the whole shoe and the thinness of the material with zero cushion on the sides(my feet where froze when they got off the water) I hope they redo these and make improvements because these are not up the par with the clothing or the brand . . . . . . I'm not sure how anyone says these are comfortable at all. The slip on part alot are complaining is a little tuff to get your foot into but not having to tie or lace up makes it ok to me, but also leaves room for your feet to slide around a bit inside which can only be expected. Please improve on these as they could be a great boot!

My feet do sweat some

My feet do sweat some in the boots.

Nice boots

Buy some boot pulls they are hard to get on

Great durable

great shoe little stiff on the collar but very durable

GTX

These seems like they will work out great once broke in, For a guy with a large foot (14) it is quite difficult to get this boot on without a struggle and a shoehorn. Hoping they break in soon.

Durable, comfortable, look good

Second pair I’ve bought, hunted in mid 20’s in a corn field with them and toes never got cold!

Absolutely fantastic shoe comfortable and

Absolutely fantastic shoe comfortable and lightweight

Rover GTX

Comfortable boot, and have been wearing them pretty much every day since I bought them. I will say that there not 100% waterproof. Going to treat them with some waterproofing and see how they hold up.

Great!

Great!

Great boots!

I upgraded to these as a quick slip on boot for taking dogs out in the morning and avoiding the wet dew on the grass. I wore these 5 days straight for waterfowl hunting in 20_50 degrees and they performed perfectly. I was very pleased with these boots and will probably order a spare pair

great boot. fit good, very

Shoes

Too tight on ankles

Great idea

I purchased these to wear in the truck on the way to hunts. I find them a little hard to slip on, but are very comfortable when they are on. I wear a 9. 5 and ordered the 10. I would suggest you size down on this one unless you wear thick socks. I would buy again.

Awesome hunting gear!

This is the best Gear ive bought since I started hunting. Its all quality and really helps me in the cold when I'm hunting. Sitka is the best no doubt about it!

Great fit and comfort

fits true to size and very comfortable.

2nd Pair

Love these, have them in leather too

Comfortable until you walk

They cut into the back of your heel on your Achilles but they are super comfortable otherwise

Great boot

Warm and lightweight. Fits great!

Don’t do it….

Great boots, if you can actually get into them

I liked everything about this boot other than it's hard to put them on.
