Maelstrom Men's Tac Force Military Tactical Work Boots

التعليق

I’m a 10 1/2 Wide so I ordered an 11 Medium. This method works for me since one foot seems slightly larger than the other. This is a good $55.00 boot. The zippers work great, they allow me to get the shoe strings adjusted for a great fit and then I use the zipper to take them off and put them on. I did find a minor flaw on one of the boot heels, but it’s very minor. I wear these boots 3-4 times a week, two days at work and then to work around the yard. They seem very durable, extremely lightweight and were easy to shine up with black Kiwi wax. Maintain this boot properly and it should last a long time. With that said, this is not a $135.00 pair of Wolverines. They probably won’t last like a $135.00 pair of Wolverines. If that’s what you want/expect, go buy a $135.00 pair of Wolverines. For me, I expect they will last 2+ years minimum. Because I won’t use them everyday and I will keep them clean and shined. For the Soldier that’s drilling in rough terrain, these most likely will fall short. I expect these will last as long or longer than the last pair of boots I bought at Walmart.

Ive had these boots a little over a month. They are comfortable and required little break in. I was skeptical of them after wearing a pair of Danners for the past two years, but the price made me experiment. Long story short, Im sad I did. These boots simply do not hold up to daily duty wear. They stain relatively easy, but the unacceptable part is that the leather is already separating from the metal shoelace eyelets. This is after less than two months of use! I wasnt expecting them to be on par with the two years I got out of my Danners, but less than two months? Bottom line, save your money and buy a better quality boot if you are going to actually be using them for duty wear. Update 05/07/17: These boots are garbage. I stopped wearing them most days in an effort to get more life out of them. It didnt work. The defects got worse and multiplied. The most recent is a hole in the heel just under the seam. Save your money and buy a better pair. Youll end up money ahead!

Install Flash Player These boots SQUEAK so bad I cannot even wear them in public without attracting unwanted attention. They are comfortable and a great fit, but they sound like literal clown shoes. Did anyone from Maelstrom try wearing a pair of these? Its ridiculous how bad they squeak. Check out my video, make sure your sound is on so you can ruin your ears with the squeaking. Seriously, how can this company not address such an obvious design flaw.

Finally have found a decent compromise to overpriced "motorcycle boots/street shoes". Fit is very comfortable with plenty of support and padded protection for ankles. Very light weight for their size and comfortable to walk in. For me thats a huge plus as it saves me having to pack a set of "street shoes" when Im out touring. Granted these arent evening dress shoes, but they have enough style to blend in most environments without all the straps and buckles of the typically overdecorated motorcycle wear. My single reservation at this point are the laces. Historically, laces and moving machinery dont play well together. So Ive adjusted mine to best security and comfort level, double-tied then and will put a drop of adhesive on the knots for an extra measure of security. Once youve adjusted the laces to your personal preference, the side zipper is all you need when putting them on and taking them off. If I research long enough, I may be able to come up with some solution allowing me to remove the laces entirely. In the interim, theyre comfortable, rugged, well constructed, adapt well to shifter and brake use, and cost less than half of what a set of "motorcycle boots/shoes" will set you back. I do recommend them.

I am a paramedic and use this boot for work. I was skeptical at first due to the low price. Boots usually last me around 6-8 months, I am very hard on them. I will update this as I use them more but I will list my first impressions below. Pros: Very lightweight boot, I dont feel weighed down but it still seems to have plenty of traction. I have used it so far in muddy conditions, as well as climbing up hills and going through puddles. My feet are staying dry and the boot seems to clean up pretty easily. The zipper works nice and does not seem to get jammed up. The value is outstanding, it fits the same as my bates boots and feels like a 511 in terms of comfort. It is blood borne resistant. Cons: The leather feels thinner than other boots I have owned, not sure how this will play out in the long run. Overall: it is a nice boot for the money 49.99 on amazon. It arrived very quickly took 3 days free shipping. I am satisfied with my purchase. I will update this review in about a month. 2 month update: I wear these at work I on average work 72-96 hours a week, these boots have been in rain, mud, oil spills, gas leaks, and house fires. They have held up very well, the only evidence of any damage is one scuff mark on the top of the boot. In wet conditions my feet have stayed dry and warm. They seem to grip the surface well. The best feature I have found so far is they are very lightweight, and after a day on my feet I dont feel like I am dragging them. I highly recommend this. 1 year 5 month update: I figured my boots were getting a little too scratched up, so I would order another pair. I cannot believe these boots have lasted over a year and 5 months. I still wear them everyday. The zipper and Velcro both are working fine. I have polished them a total of 5 times, they have been in rain, sleet, snow, mud, salt, oil, fuel spills, and any other disaster you can name. My feet stay dry in them, I have no complaints. These are a great boot, they are starting to show their age but just from being worn out, never thought I could say that about a boot. I will try to attach some pictures. I am buying new ones today, but will continue to use these around the farm. I will post another update when they finally break. I am also going to try to add some photos of the boots. The pictures of the boots are ones that are over a year and a half old (2nd pair purchased) I am still happy with them, they have lasted. I am not easy on my boots. I have not been compensated in any way shape or form.
