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

I wanted to give this a longer term review, instead of straight from the box. I purchased a pair of these boots back in June of 2023. They were my everyday, everywhere footwear for almost 2 years. To work or play, rain, shine or snow. I have finally ordered my second pair in July of 2025. They have held up remarkably well, with in insoles having to be replaced roughly 9 months after initial purchase, and those being replaced almost a year later. The tread has finally worn smooth, and the right boot developed a tear (probably from all the use), near the toe joint. They are not water proof, but they do offer great support, a good fit and have survived for a little over two years, in just about every element nature can provide. I recommend these boots for anyone looking for a durable, and affordable set of boots to wear.

Holds together well! Comfortable and true to size. Lasted me for a year before the layers starts to peel on the outside. Definitely recommend for light weight boots

So... while I may have been looking for a Steel Toe or Hardened Plastic Toe, this pair of boots does pretty well on keeping me comfortable during hard work days. They STAY on my feet.They've a decent durability, and the leather keeps things OUT. And I put these boots through HELL and back in my workplaces, excepting that I NEVER let anything heavy LAND on my toes. Again, these are SOFT TOED BOOTS, not Steel Toed or otherwise.Heel support is middling, as a person with bad knees, I've had to stand for hours at a time, and these don't have "superb" heel support, but they do give a fair amount... although they also don't give very much in the way of arch support.As for Ease of Use... well, you'll have to be careful, because getting into and out of them is a mixed bag, as once you've tightened the strings and knotted them, they are NOT coming off. After a long day, or lengthy work between breaks, when you want them OFF, they are a PAIN to get off, for some reason this is always my left foot that gets stuck at the ankle trying to pull it off...If you're in a similar field of work like I am, working either construction or some such, these may not be the best, and they make your feet sweat like hell, no matter the sock type, and i've got several different sock types, of which you'll want LONG socks, at least 3/4ths up your shin length, before putting these boots on, to keep from chaffing your shins, heels, and all.When moving around, these boots do give you some decent support, and protect your feet nicely, and they don't feel bad after walking around for hours. Experience: Spent a few shifts walking around for five hours at a time, and didn't get any foot pain from them.If these last another two years or more, I'll be pleased with the money I spent on these boots.TIP: if you're in the South, or an area that gets a LOT of sunlight and heat? GET THE BEIGE OR LIGHTER COLORS. NEVER wear black on those hot summer days!

These boots have been comfortable from the first time I put them on. They're not loose around the leg like others claim and there's more room to make them tighter if I wanted. Had my first day of milsim use with then and I did not rush home to take them off, they're still on while writing this review. During play it didn't feel like I had a brand new pair of combat boots on at all. The leather is sturdy enough to withstand a direct fire shot at 1.8joules, not even a dent in the leather. I will be purchasing more of these boots in other colors too.Only complaint I have is there seems to be an excessive amount of extra material along the tongue, it can bunch up if you don't take a extra second to make sure it folds right after you put it on. No water on the field today to test the waterproofing.Edit: after a full season of airsoft, 2 months of work. These boots are holding up great! They barely show any signs of wear, still super comfortable. Everyday I've worn them I end up wearing them all day long until I take my shoes off for the night, they are that comfortable. Highly recommend these boots. On a side note, not resistant to gasoline. I stepped in some and could feel the tread become very slippery, I cleaned them off immediately and there was no longterm damage, but that could have been different if I didn't clean them off quickly.
