"The boots reduce the push force the player recieves from certain damage sources such as Stickybombs by 75%."

Are we positive that's what it does? Because to me, those stats read "a reduction in the reduction of knockback" IE, it actually increases knockback. Also, it's a weapon made for stomping people, it would seem odd that it would pretty much make Rocket Jumping impossible for only a very minor additional ability.

That would make the goomba stomping more effective, but we'll probably have to wait to find out. Leaderboard class soldier.pngJust a Gigolo - (talk) 06:48, 23 June 2011 (PDT)
Yea, I think we'll just have to wait and see. Valve needs to stop using confusing wording on weapons :/ Balladofwindfishes 06:52, 23 June 2011 (PDT)

Since the update is live, is this statement still accurate? And if it is, does it also decrease knockback from rocket jumping? Either way, this should probably be clarified in the article. Anzallos 21:40, 26 June 2011 (PDT)

I think it means you're less vulnerable to knockback from enemy weapons, not your own. --Cooper Kid (Blether · Contreebs) 04:13, 27 June 2011 (PDT)
I tested them. When I rocket jump, I fly higher. I'm not sure though. I was using direct hit.--FactCore 13:39, 27 June 2011 (PDT)
