Soft top boot
Looking for a soft top boot similar to the one pictured below. In essence, I want a boot that is nothing more than just a sleeve that covers the soft top rather than the one (mopar) that also attaches the boot to the jeep via the plastic lips along the retainer channel.
Any help would be appreciated.

Good idea. Considering I'm a boat owner, I should have thought of that....

Rampage makes a really nice one that I've been considering. It even snaps into the belt rail. You can find it at 4wd or Quadratec.

I have the Rampage one, It's pretty convenient and looks good too BUT! the first day I put it on, one of the pull tabs ripped off the cover which led to the stitching coming undone from the plastic strips that slide into the slots like soft tops.

I've had the Smittybilt boot since last summer and it works fine. You should be able to find it for right around $40 or so pretty much anywhere. I use it mainly to keep the interior of the top clean if I have it down for a few days straight or have it down while I'm out wheeling. Also works for the winter time to keep it bundleled together when I make the hard top switch.

I have the same one but I've since bought a BesTop deck cover, which also attaches the the rails the same way the soft top boot does. As such, I can't attach both. I just want a simple soft top boot that covers the soft top as pictured in my first post...

Had a boot for my TJ but would never get another. Too much of a hassle to stuff the top in there every time. Maybe they would be ok in a place that never rains....but then again why not just take the top off completely in that case? If the top is folded down properly it actually looks pretty good, thats my 2 cents.
