Kicking boots are boots that enhance the wearer's ability to kick.
Wearing kicking boots will increase the damage done by kick attacks (by 5), increase the distance that kicked objects travel, and will increase the chances of kicking down doors to 100%.
Strategy
Unlike the other randomized boots, they are made of iron; they can be identified if wearing them increases the failure rate of your spells, or if rubbing them on a touchstone produces "scritch, scritch." This also means that they are prone to rust so they can be identified by the attack of a rust monster or by getting them wet.
Another method to identify kicking boots is simple -- test kicking a suitable object (a rock will do) without the boots, then while wearing the boots. It will travel farther with the boots on if they are kicking boots. These boots may also be identified via price identification, if they are the same price as elven boots AND you do not have stealth AND when you put them on you don't get the message "You walk very quietly," they are kicking boots.
Keep this fact in mind if kick-testing a gray stone: While wearing kicking boots, you may displace the normally immobile loadstone.
