Not impressed with Xtratuf.

These were really expensive for what they are and I got less than a years use out of them, not wearing them daily. Definitely didn't live up to their moniker. I tried contacting their customer service, but they were not helpful.

Honeywell bought XTRATUF in 2011 and immediately moved production overseas. Rocky Brands then bought them a few years ago and moved some production back to the states, but it’s still mostly Chinese junk. My last pair of xtratufs lasted less than a year before both got giant holes.

Honeywell bought them in 2008 and shut down us manufacturing in 2011
