FOX OUTDOOR PRODUCTS Men's Vietnam Jungle Durable Comfortable Tactical Combat Boots with Leather & Cotton Upper & Steel Shank

For $30 these boots are a good bang for your buck. As a former U.S. Marine I have have had several pairs of USGI combat boots in my day, including made in USA Vietnam era and post-Vietnam era jungle boots bought with my own private funds after military service, which no doubt are top notch quality if you can find them, but those tend to cost at least $100 for a nice pair. Sure these Fox Outdoor boots are made in China, but as far as reproduction boots go, these are pretty nice and are surprisingly comfortable. The toe box is not too large like with the Rothco version. I know these will not last forever, but for a back up pair or for casual use they are solid. Time will tell how long they last, so we'll see. I bought the OD green and black, but at this price will be ordering a solid black pair also.

I cannot begin on how great these boots are. I just retired my old pair after 3 years of daily wear. I'm on my feet almost all day and these boots have never let me down. The reason why I like these boots so much is that they are very lightweight and slim in comparison to most combat/work style boots. Timberlands are really good and all but I find them clunky to wear and annoying to put on and therefore reserve those only for really heavy jobs. When it comes to sneakers I usually wear Converse-type shoes and these are really converse type boots. I never lace them up, I just tie off the laces in the top eyelets and can then just slide them on and off with no hassle, but they still stay on on my feet really well even without the laces tied. Also they breathe very well with the canvas ankles and the eyelets towards the bottoms. The only downside is that they are not waterproof at all, but they dry pretty quickly bc they are so light. I also did have to replace the insoles after 2 years with Dr Scholls because the original ones were shredded. Included are pictures of my 3 year old boots and a new pair side by side.

These boots are a good clone of actual USGI Jungle Boots just by looking at them from a distance, however upon further inspection they are almost like sneakers, there are also some imperfections in the soles and it was very slightly different from the original Panama pattern. The rubber soles are a very soft rubber, so they’re pretty much broken in from the start. They are decently light weight and actually have alright foam insoles. They fit very well to the size I bought, size 10. I believe these would last you a decent time if you just wore them around lightly. These are the perfect pair of boots for a Cosplay or Costume. They are cheaper than other Jungle boot clones, decently comfortable, and unless you inspect them up close they look just like the real deal. When I first got these and took them out of the bag, my room filled with a chemical smell, however I aired them outside on my porch over night and the smell was pretty much gone the next day. As I was looking for a cheap pair of Jungle Boots that felt like the real thing for work, I choose the Rothco’s version of the jungle boots over these, as these are clearly boots meant for show and not work. If you buy these, wear them for the look, like sneakers not work boots.

We got these for my son as it was part of the prescribed outfit for his marching band. We got a size 10, and it matches his size well - he wears a 10 in Nike and 9 in Chucks - he still has good room for 2 pairs of socks for comfort. He's given no complaints of rubbing or discomfort or anything so I'll say maybe they're a half size big. No issues after 3 months of use so far with wear on soles or stitching. Recommended.

I am a former 11B, pre and post 9/11. I bought these boots to complete a costume for a party, having sworn to never own or wear another pair of combat boots. This product gets its 2 stars from looking and feeling like the real thing, it looks the part and will pass inspection. It even feels comfortable. Really unforgivable about these boots is the sole, these are absolutely not hardened or meant for activity. These are indeed costume boots, as advertised, or at least what the price suggests. Upon wearing them I noticed there were black markings on the floor from just putting them on. I scuffed my foot and left a thick black mark on my floor. These boots will disintegrate if you try to do anything physical with them, to include any field training or distance marching/rucking. This boot is for wearing to and from work, if you have an office job. Maybe wear to the club. I don't understand who the target audience is for these boots. Maybe me, for a costume party. The stench of these boots is horrible. There is an obnoxious chemical smell on these boots. I have kept these boots on my porch for literally 4 full weeks, and while the chemical filth smell has decreased, I can still smell them in the corner if I bring them inside. I guess this negates the wear-them-to-an-office-job comment, as you'd probably have a headache (and maybe develop cancer) if you just sat in a cubicle with these. These get 2/5 stars simply because I can't imagine anybody benefiting from saving a few bucks to buy these, instead of paying a few bucks more for something that will last 10-times as long, not scuff floors, and not give you a headache and/or cancer. I can't even recommend these for costume boots, because of the smell. Update: 8 weeks outdoors on the deck, I brought them inside and tossed them on the boot rack. Coming home from work, my front hall had that chemical stink. It's still there, 8 weeks outdoors in the sun and wind didn't fully address the stench problem. I'm going to drop my rating to 1/5, as I can't imagine who could tolerate the chemical smell, especially if this low-quality boot is meant only for office workers. Update 2: 12 weeks out on the deck, literally outdoors in the sun and wind, 3 months. I literally flipped them every 2 weeks, so the sun wouldn't bleach one side. Three months outside?, they smell better. I brought them inside, to put them on and break them in, as my costume party is in 1 month / 4 weeks. I set them on the floor, got to straightening the laces, and was overwhelmed by an intense chemical stink. I checked above to make sure I gave this a 1/5 review, and I did. The chemical stank of this product is unreal.

Ithink in this range it should at least be with decent reliability, but unfortunately the sole separated way to early, it is do to the fact there is no metal guard in the bottom. Also the stitches are for looks only.

Great boots! Very quick delivery!

I have a triple E foot ordered the wide width. Amazing to say the least. Light weight comfortable and we'll made.

Ordered the 11.5 W and fit was right on. Great price

This is the old-style jungle boot from the Vietnam era with an excellent bold tread and softer sole. These fit well and have been very comfortable. The are excellent for rough and uneven terrain and they are excellent on ice as they have a better grip and softer sole which adheres much better than regular boots. Not designed for cold but they work better than anything else I have found. NOT water-proof.
