ROCKY Silent Stalker Lowtop & Hiker

Footwear for Outdoor Athletes

A new generation of hunters has triggered the need for a new breed of footwear for the field. ROCKY has answered the call in 2010 with the SilentStalker hunting footwear collection, a series that incorporates athletic styling and performance features reminiscent of tennis shoes.

 

The SilentStalker series, which includes a low top, a hiker and an 8-inch boot, puts performance front and center with super flexible outsoles and a comfortable feel similar to that of a shoe. The series incorporates the new GORE-TEX® Extended Comfort technology, a system from Gore for the hunting market that provides highly active hunters with the most comfortable, durably waterproof and breathable, noninsulated hunting footwear experience on the market.

 

The SilentStalker, available in Realtree AP, also features ROCKY’s popular scent-control system SIQ Atomic, a featherweight Ortholite dual-density contoured footbed and an ultra flexible two-part SilentStalker outsole.

GORE-TEX Extended Comfort

ROCKY All-Terrain Lynx Boot 7366

Focuses on Versatility, Value

Wherever you’ve been, wherever you’re going, the new Lynx boot from ROCKY will get you there. Designed for the rugged multiseason outdoorsman, the aggressive eight-inch Lynx keeps you on the trail for a successful hunt.

 

The Lynx takes its name from its ground-gripping outsole, which has a combination of Lynx tooth and all-terrain directional lugs that provide traction in any field conditions. The interior is lined with the GORE-TEX performance comfort footwear membrane to keep feet dry and comfortable all day. Combine that with the perfect ratio of Thinsulate Ultra Insulation and the Lynx can tame any harsh fall and winter weather.

 

Designers also made comfort a priority. The Lynx is built on top of an Ortholite dual-density footbed, which is contoured to hug the foot. The Lynx boot series will be available in dark brown leather, Mossy Oak Break-Up and Break-Up Infinity as well as Realtree AP. Styles will have 400 grams or 800 grams of Thinsulate Insulation Ultra, along with a non-insulated version.

ROCKY BroadHead Boot 7031

World’s Lightest Hunting Footwear

Rocky once again flexes its innovative muscle by unveiling the BroadHead — a marvel in lightweight, flexible footwear.

The shoe’s design, which product designers describe as “deconstructed,” is intended for bow hunters and others who want to stalk game with ultimate stealth.

 

The BroadHead’s stealth is due, in part, to the use of the same soft, flexible fabric currently used in Rocky’s S2V apparel, which makes up the outer shell. The shoe also features Rocky’s Scent IQ Atomic technology, a favorite of outdoorsmen who rely on scent and odor control for close-range hunting.

 

BoneCage Technology, a webbed design of thin Camo-Tek overlay on both sides of the shoe, provides flexible structure and protection against scrapes. An ultra-thin three millimeters of EVA make up BroadHead’s sole, providing for maximum ground sensitivity. Rubber pods on the toe and heel work against common wear and tear. Gore-Tex fabric provides waterproof breathability keeping the feet dry and comfortable.

 

Specifications Include:

Scent IQ Atomic Technology controls human odor

Durably breathable

Waterproof Gore-Tex fabric

BoneCage Technology adds structure

Protects against abrasion

Soft shell, S2V, fabric aids silence

Abrasion resistant coating on toe

Three millimeters of EVA sole

Strategically placed rubber pods
