Rooster Boot – Combines the lightness and feel of a surfing slipper with the comfort and support of a stiff rubber hiking boot. The techie bit – the front and back straps lock the heel into the boot, the front strap is well above the hiking strap area, and the back strap is locked into the cup of the heel, avoiding soft tissue damage. The pull from the forward arch position reduces twist and offers secondary support to the over worked ankle joint. Heel stability and ankle support together make this boot a must for those who are pushing the envelope whether they are straight toe hiking or trapezing.
Shaped wet socks are also available for added boatpark, hiking and winter comfort

fairly narrow fit, so if you have a wide foot or intend to wear a wet sock, you might consider going for a slightly larger size - especially if you are close to the next size break.

5 out of 5 stars Hiking Boots & Wet Socks, 11.5.2006
Reviewer: (, )
I get very cold feet winter sailing, but not now! The wet socks make a huge difference to comfort and heat and the hiking boots have a great fit. Having a short boot with no zip is much comfier and the fit is supportive and grippy. They look pretty good too. My old boots are now in the bin (I won't name the brand)!
5 out of 5 stars Comfortable and secure, 8.9.2006
Reviewer: Alan Hopcraft (Nottingham, Nottinghamshire)
I've had these a while and they are a great hiking boot. The fit is firm and secure without being constricting. Once you've tightened the straps there is no way they are going to come off unless your foot goes with them. Warm enough on most days but if you do need wet-socks heed the warning about getting a bigger size. They really are snug. I would have taken half a star off if I could as they could be a bit gripper on the slipway. But this is pretty minor and they are fine on the floor of a Laser.
