Rating: 3.5 / 5 Stars Review: Right out of the box, the Wildland 77s are insanely comfortable. The insoles are absolute money, and when they aren't laced tight for actual work, they feel great. But when it’s time to head out on an IA, I need to cinch my boots down hard, get reliable ankle support, and never think about them again. That’s where these hit a few snags. The biggest issue is the metal eyelet right over the ankle bone. Cinched down, it dug in so hard it felt like it was piercing my skin, forcing me to stop and readjust six different times on one shift. I finally skipped that eyelet altogether to stop the pain, but doing that caused the boot tongue to warp the wrong way and gave up some of the ankle support I needed. A bit more structural ankle support overall would really take these to the next level. What makes it frustrating is that I also bought a pair of Rocky S2Vs, and their eyelet design and ankle comfort are far superior—they don't dig in at all, and those aren't even dedicated wildland boots. If Rocky keeps these killer insoles, adds a touch more ankle support, and fixes that ankle eyelet/tongue setup, these will easily be a top-tier boot for line work. They are just a couple of tweaks away from being perfect.

Not to thrilled.just went to the fire line and finally wore them... Bottoms are comforting. But the tongue is horrible cuts in to your leg😕 poor design
My sister bought me a pair fantastic 😍 l love them
Have really only begun breaking these in, but so far they are a comfortable boot. I think they will serve me well on fires this season.
Boots are true to size, comfortable, require little to no break-in, have good tread. Looking forward to seeing how they hold up for the fire season.
Amazing boots for the fire line, I wore these boots out and about twice for a total of 3 hours and then used them on the fire line during a 12-hour fire. They fit amazing, much like my SV2s, no heat on the line, great grip, and very light. I would highly recommend these to any wildland firefighter looking for a great fit.
I have worn this boot for six weeks and is the best boot i have ever had. thank you for an excellent product.
The boots fine but PLEASE PLEASE get rid of the lace lock eyelet. Makes sense on paper. But it gets gunked up with dirt and it makes it impossible to take these boots off end of shift. I'm going to have to try to fix it with a drill bit.
I have owned several different wildland boots and I really like these. Quick break in. Wide size is actually wide. Comfortable boot for all day walking in all kinds of terrain.
I am extremely pleased with these boots. I had a chance to test them out in the field and the wide toe box is exactly what I need
