Lightweight Cruiser Boots
Billy Boots
Milwaukee, Wis.

Billy Boots' Cruiser is a lightweight, pull-on boot, molded from lightweight EVA resin. The Cruiser has no seams to leak and no buckles to fall. At just 2.1 pounds per pair, Cruisers are virtual featherweights, yet are tough enough to stand up to challenges like rebar wire ties that can shred ordinary PVC boots. The Cruiser is constructed from EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), a closed-cell polymer that is completely waterproof. It is flexible for comfort, yet tough enough for factory, farm, or construction work even in the harshest conditions. It provides excellent shock absorption and insulates against cold, even at sub-zero temperatures.
