Rothco Leather Jump Boots Review

Product Overview

The Rothco 10-Inch Leather Jump Boots deliver classic parade style with everyday duty performance. A cushioned insole helps absorb impact, the oil-resistant beveled outsole improves traction, and a steel shank reduces heel and calf strain over long shifts. A storm welt adds breathable moisture protection. With a 12-eyelet lacing system and a 10" shaft, the ankle lock-in is secure and supportive.

Durability, Style & Field Performance

Built for Demanding Use

Full-grain leather, a storm welt, and brass hardware stand up to abrasion and weather. The outsole compound maintains grip in vehicle bays, wet pavement, and polished floors—environments common to military personnel and security teams.

Classic Uniform Style

The polished leather and tall silhouette echo the traditional look associated with military jump boots, pairing cleanly with dress uniforms and duty pants.

Movement & Control

During training—including military jump drills—the cushioned insole and supportive shank help distribute pressure, while the beveled outsole encourages a smoother stride and confident transitions on mixed terrain.
