Xtratuf Mens Navy 6in Ankle Deck Boot

The Ankle Deck Boot collection has been crafted specifically for off-shore anglers. Anglers are athletes, and like any athlete they demand the best footwear to help them perform at a high level. We’ve created a lightweight design with the same slip-resistant Chevron outsole found on our Legacy boots. The 6″ ankle deck boot is a great option for any on-the-water athlete looking for protection with slip-on-and-go styling. This boot is constructed with hand-layed rubber, and so not classified as a commercial grade boot. For those looking for a commercial grade ankle height deck boot please search for the Wheelhouse Boot.
