FREE SOLDIER Men's Tactical Boots 8 Inches Lightweight Combat Boots Durable Suede Leather Military Work Boot Desert Boot

I am a UPS driver. I walk 20,000 to 25,000 steps per day. It is really hard to find shoes that can survive the abuse my job puts on them. I recently decided to switch from normal walking shoes to boots because I have bad ankles.I am always scared to spend too much on shoes, because I have never found any shoe, at any price, that lasted more than six months. The last pair of boots I had were twice the price of these ones, and the entire sole peeled off after 3 weeks, but these had good reviews, and were very reasonably priced, so I decided to give them a go.Straight out of the box they were probably the most comfortable pair of boots I have ever owned. I thought I was going to have to break them in for a while, but that was no problem. Also, the ankle support is superb.After a month, or two, each shoe started to show a small gap between the sole and the shoe near the ball of my foot. But I put a tiny bit of shoe glue in there, and it hasn't been a problem again.Right now, I have been wearing them every day for 3 months (or at least 1.3 Million steps), and they seem like they will probably make it another 3, at least. That's probably about as much as you can reasonably ask for boots that were under $70.One other note: they are supposed to be waterproof, but I haven't really had a chance to test that out here through the bone-dry, Salt Lake City summer months. But if they last into the winter, I will give an update on that.

First I bought the thin version and the collar wasn't padded and was huge and was extreamy loose on the calf, there was no ankle support at all (in my opion they sucked). I just bought the thick waterproof (no zipper) version to replace them and they fit perfectly, have a padded collar and fit snugly on the calf when tied. They are extremely light, very comfortable and feel like wearing tennis shoes. I Can't attest to how waterproof they are since I haven't worn them in a wet environment yet, but these seem to be as good as any boot I was issued in the Army. (and after 24 years that was a lot of boots). Some of the reviews claim they are too warm, but I didn't feel they were any warmer than any other military boot I have worn and I was wearing them on a 95 degree day with wool socks.

I spent 20 years in the United States Military so I completely understand the need for good quality boots and you get what you pay for when it comes to protecting your feet. The bad - the heel is flat to the back of the boot, meaning there isn't a concave pocket that your heel will fit into. Because of the lack of heal support my foot wanted to slip out constantly. This causes a problem if you are going to do a lot of foot marches / walking with these boots as it can cause hot spots and/or blisters.I tossed in some insoles, laced them up tight, and wore the boots for about a month. Each day I hated the boots less and less. Now I wear them daily.I like the boots and they don't cause back pain. I would purchase again if I didn't have the funds for a better pair of boots. If you are in the Military, don't purchase them as they are against regulations.

So far love them. Great price! 1/3 the price of boots I normally get. Also, something about these boots I don’t really understand why but, they are very stable. My ankle does not roll in either direction near as easily as they did and my other boots which is very important to me in law enforcement. I might buy a second pair just to have his back up in case they stop making them, but I hope they don’t. They also are about a third of the weight of my other boots. I am a little concerned to see how long they last for but at this price I’m not that worried about it.

I absolutely beat these things to death. I was extremely tough on them 4-5 d/wk.They only fell apart after hiking through rivers then continuing hiking without drying for months on end.I got about 8 solid continued use months from these bad boys till they were done. Then I just ordered a different pair( not water proof this time). Great boots. I’ll be back ..

W.O.W……..got these today after reading a lot of the reviews and the 5 stars don’t lie ! I’ve paid 5 five times the price for boots that were miserable. These right out of the box are SUPER COMFORTABLE !!!!!!$36 bucks to the door, unbelievable price !!! I put them on and walked down the block and back, the whole time thinking no way are these this nice. They have like a fleece lining I’m guessing contributes to the comfort. They seem well built with good ankle support. And they are very light !I’m going hiking this weekend scouting for a potential coyote hunt. If these prove to be as comfortable in the Southern Nevada Desert this weekend I’m ordering another pair to stash away. Someone else said like wearing pillows for your feet, completely agree with that statement !So far, super pleased I took a chance and ordered a pair. Like others I highly recommend trying a pair of these boots, for the price what a deal !!!!!So after our trip this last weekend I’m buying another pair to stash, these boots are just damn nice. My feet never once bothered me. It was 114 degrees here in Southern Nevada and not once did I notice any sweating in the boots, which had me a little worried. I also wore the new dickies boot sock with sweat control, whatever they call it. As a combo deal, these boots with those socks were completely comfortable compared to the Heavy and Very Uncomfortable Altama 11461B I was wearing no matter the sock I wore with them which are headed to donation at Goodwill.

Seem well designed. Wearing them in right now for break in need boots for project in two days. Not my normal brand. Simple available. However, they come large. I need a 9.5 due to feet that are 9/9.5. Boot marked 9.5 but closer to 10.5. Webpages says sizes are exact but that is not true given made in China. Comfortable but simply oversized. Given timeline will wear extra thick socks.

I initially got these boots for hunting, but have been wearing them ever since fory job. They are very light and do well in any condition. I haven't had a problem with them at all and I wear them almost every day. 10/10

It's great. Wore them all summer long, never felt my feet getting trapped in with the heat ever never. But there is one thing about it, one of the lacing is rather tight on the talus bone (Ankle joint)It applies pressure and i usually remove the lacing and put them back together without using the spot where it hurts - In my own standard at least, that's the only issue i had with it but one great boots. It's comfortable and would recommend, only wished there was black.

Llevo usandolas por aproximadamente 3 semanas y aunque aun no le saco el máximo provecho de verdad son bastante buenas, hice la prueba de meterlas a un charco que las cubria bastante y el agua resbalo como si fuera una bota para lluvia/agua, de vez en cuando queda un poco de agua encima y se moja la parte de afuera de la bota pero nunca entra a la parte interna hasta ahora, son bastante comodas gracias a que vienen muy acolchadas y no se siente ni siquiera la piedra mas grande que pises, intente ver si me podia resbalar y lo que vi es que con la lluvia ya en el piso no fue muy facil que me resbalara el pie, lo que si fue un poco resbaloso fue cuando estaban trapeando en mi casa y resbalo un poco sin intentar resbalarme a propósito. Dentro de todo estan muy buenas y cumplieron demasiado bien las expectativas que tenia.

I just received my boots this morning. Shipping on exact date and package in excellent condition. I ordered size 10, I am usually 9.5 US but I wanted a bit of wiggle room to put thicker socks during cold days. They fit absolutely perfect and they are so comfortable and much lighter then I expected.I will use them specifically for doing Search and Rescue in the forest so they will be getting the absolute test. Woods, water, rock climbing, human extractions etc..I will post another review in a couple months.For now I give them a 5 out of 5 for sure.

Comfortable fit. Use it for wearing doing yard work

Mon pied était trop serré dans ma taille habituelle et j'a dû les retourner. Le remboursement n'a pas été complet.
