Grundens 12 Inch Deck Boot
The Men’s 12” Deck Boot was designed to provide anglers with a comfortable, performance driven footwear option that will outlast even the longest days on the water. We’ve prioritized a thicker insole to promote noticeable shock resistance and the Anti-Odor cooling liner will ensure you leave the typical footwear stench behind. Built in razor siping helps move water out from under the shoe improving grip on wet surfaces and combined with a natural gum rubber outsole, you’ll be standing upright on deck all day long.
- 100% Waterproof vulcanized rubber construction
- Neoprene Lining with HeiQ Fresh and Smart Temp Thermo Regulating Finishes
