Thursday, January 24th, 2013

We first mentioned Rocky S2V during their soft launch at Summer OR. Now, in addition to a full brand launch, Rocky S2V has introduced a couple of new products. SSD readers will probably be most interested in the Agonic Prima-Flex softshell and Substratum XLD boot but there is also a new softshell and pant that we’ll cover soon.

Use Your Boots to Start a Fire

Thursday, December 20th, 2012

Yeah, I know. It sounds crazy doesn’t it? Well, it’s not crazy of you have a pair of new Rocky S2V Substratum Direct Attach Hikers.

To make a fire, just remove your boot and pull out the foot-bed. In a recess beneath the footbed rests a firesparker and wetcubes from Ultimate Survival Technologies. .

The Sparkie is a one-handed emergency fire starter that weighs less than one ounce. It also comes packaged with two WetFire tinder cubes.

But these aren’t just a vessel for a cool firestarter. Unveiled at Summer OR, Rocky offers an upper made from nubuck leather and ripstop nylon with a polyurethane rand wrapped around the toe and heel. They’ve also included 550 cord laces for additional survival applications.

The Substratum Direct Attach Hiker also features a moisture-wicking lining and Hydro IQ (waterproof/air circulation). Additionally, it is insulated with Aerotherm® Aerogel insulation and PrimaLoft® insulation in targeted sections of the boot. Here’s another cool survival component. The antimicrobial insole has been made in a bright, fuchsia color; not only will it suppress odors and cushion your feet, but can also be used to signal for help.
