Frequently Asked Questions
What safety standards does the Ironclad FQ0005693 meet?
Rocky lists the steel-toe Ironclad (FQ0006693) as meeting ASTM F2413 protective toe and electrical hazard standards. The soft-toe FQ0005693 is the same boot without a safety cap for work that does not require one.
Is the Ironclad waterproof?
Yes. Guaranteed Rocky® waterproof construction seals the boot from the ground up, and the full-length tongue keeps water and debris from getting in at the laces.
Does the Ironclad run true to size?
Order the size you wear in athletic shoes. On the steel-toe version the cap does not stretch, so size for room across the toes from day one.
What does the tempered steel shank do?
It is a steel plate under the arch that resists twisting on ladders and uneven ground, so the boot supports you on a rung or a narrow edge instead of collapsing around it.
Is the Ironclad insulated?
The FQ0005693 is waterproof and uninsulated for three-season wear. For winter, Rocky's Ranger 8" carries 800g of Thinsulate™ on a Goodyear welt.
What is the difference between FQ0006693 and FQ0005693?
Same 8" waterproof Ironclad: leather upper, Air-Port footbed, tempered steel shank, EVA midsole, and 7-layer outsole. FQ0006693 adds an ASTM F2413 steel safety toe with EH rating; FQ0005693 is the soft-toe version.
