## Description

desertcart.com: Reebok Men's Rapid Response Soft Toe Desert Tan 12 W : Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry

Review: Very Nice (Unless You Have Narrow Feet); There's A Good Reason Why These Do Not Have Steel Toes! - This is a "cut and paste" of the review I did on the Reebok "high boot" version ( Reebok Men's Rapid Response RB8895 Safety Boot ). Having tried both, the comments equally apply. Here goes.... These boots are really, really nice and very comfortable. I wasn't sure if I would like the side zipper, but it works well. The "pull-on" loop on the back is helpful. But if you have narrow feet you will find your feet swim in the forefoot unless you "pad" with additional (or thick) socks. If Reebok would make a "narrow" version (these "medium width" boots felt very much like "wide" boots), then we would have a SIX-star review. I've found that the 5.11 Men's 6" Taclite Boot is a better fit for my narrow feet (they are equally as comfortable, but lack the zipper). Size of these Reebok boots is about 1/2 size big (I wear size 11, but needed a 10.5 in the Reeboks (the 5.11 Taclite boots ran true: I wear 11 and the boots were an 11)). The zipper makes all the difference in what boot lace-up system is used. You'll note that the 5.11 Taclite boots use eyelets in the fabric while the Reeboks use plastic eyelets. If the Reeboks didn't have the zipper I would not ever touch them because the plastic eyelets are a highly possible point of failure. Given that most will lace up the Rebooks and leave them laced (using the zipper to take off and put on the boot) this is not too much of an issue (ergo, no plastic eyelets on the 5.11 Taclite boots). One other observation. Reviewers have complained that there is no steel toe but that the boots are advertised as safety boots. This is neither misleading nor incorrect. Yes, they are safety boots and yes they do not have a steel toe. But the product literature tells you that Reebok chose to not use steel so that there would be no issue with metal detectors, etc. In any event, the toe may not be steel, but it still seems to offer significant protection. In the end, if you're a lumberjack or the like and need real steel toe protection then these are not the boots for you. But if you are a soldier (etc.) these are perfect boots (and as a former armored vehicle crewman I can tell you not having steel toes is a plus: I remember having a pair of steel-toed boots and they helped my feet to freeze in the winter and roast in the summer). Reebok has done really, really well in these boots. If only they would make a narrow foot version!
Review: Not the best quality BUT these Boots are super comfy! - I have bought two pairs of these boots to date and even though the construction isn't the greatest for the money/cost (I only buy these when I can get them at half off or more) I love them, why you may ask? I was disabled due a severe crush injury and I have bought and used many different brands of boots, shoes but I have have pain issues that are horrible to live with.. These shoes are all I have found that give me good fit, and allow me to walk without worrying about breaking my foot or leg! I have very little control of my left foot due my accident in which my spine was severed. Due my newest pet, a 10 month old large breed dog which ate my last good pair I now need another set but money's tight for me. Luckily I found yet another pair and will order them today!! YAY! I have decided that I will check desertcart once a week until I have at least three pairs of these boots/shoes to wear as I love them that much. They honestly DO NOT wear out that fast as some would have you believe. I do waterproof them when they are new to keep them in the best condition I can. Sorry this review got so long!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable Boot
*by C***1 on October 10, 2018*

I have had several pairs of this boot for a number of years. I do a lot of walking with my dog and I do it mostly in these shoes. They are comfortable and easy to get into with the zipper on the side. I wear out the heels before anything else goes wrong. I do wish that the tongue of the shoe wasn't so long. It holds up my pants sleeve and I have to pull them free of the tongue. Other than that, these shoes are long lasting and remain comfortable.
