      Comments about 5.11 Tactical A.T.A.C. 8" Side Zip Boot:

      After more than 5 years of almost daily use in every type of terrain and weather my boots have finally given out. In and out of the ambulance, in snow and mud and rain, these boots kept my feet warm and dry and me on firm footing. This is the best investment you could make.

        Love these boots. Fourth pair I have owned. The second day on duty with them I was involved in a foot chase with an individual. To blocks in full sprint over ice, snow, loose ground and cement sidewalk. Also scaled a 8 foot chain link fence in the middle of the run. Didn't slip once and caught the individual.

        Comments about 5.11 Tactical A.T.A.C. 8" Side Zip Boot:

        Overall a great boot for just over 100 bucks. Personally I would like to see alittle thicker leather. But I can't complain too much when after 12 hours of being in the ER my feet (and especially my back) are feeling relaxed and ready to go another 12 hours. Keep in mind these boots don't have safety toes but that is one of the things that makes them so light weight and flexible.

        Service and delivery comments:

        The base shipping is alittle slow (Fedex ground from California to Chicago) but I can't complain about the price, free.
