Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our specialized roofing gear
How often should I replace my PeakLine replacement pads?
For optimal safety and grip, we recommend replacing your pads when they wear down to 1/4 inch thickness or if you notice a decrease in traction.
Are Cougar Paws boots suitable for all roof types?
Our boots are specifically designed for use on composition shingles, metal roofs (with specialized covers), and tile. They provide superior grip on steep pitches up to 12/12.
Can I wear these boots for everyday use off the roof?
To preserve the integrity and lifespan of the specialized traction pads, we recommend only wearing Cougar Paws while on the job site or roof surface.
How do I determine my correct size?
Our boots generally run true to size for men. For women, we recommend ordering two sizes smaller than your standard athletic shoe size.
Do the boots come with pads included?
Yes, all our roofing boots come with one pair of heavy-duty traction pads already attached and ready for use.
Are the boots waterproof?
Many of our models feature water-resistant leather and construction, though they are primarily designed for maximum breathability and grip in dry conditions.
