Oakley Men's Light Patrol Military Tactical Boots - Durable, Waterproof Combat Footwear for Hiking, Outdoor Adventures & Tactical Use

These boots are winners for me. I wear a women’s size 8.5 and I bought these in 7.5 and they fit great. I’m very picky about boots and I have claustrophobic feet (haha) where if I have a boot on that has too much padding, all I can think about is how trapped I feel. I tried a LOT of boots, all the big name brands for duty boots and even doc martens and sent them all back. I ordered these Oakleys and a pair of Belleville jungle boots and while the bellevilles were good, these felt better.They’re light as feathers, give me good stability with the sole and are great for hot weather. The upper part seems flimsy as it is all nylon but I wanted a minimalist type boot so that’s what this is. Because of the floppiness of the boot top, putting these on while standing (like when I’m rushing out the door to work) is difficult.That is the only downside to these boots but the comfort and lightness make up for it.I haven’t worn them in cold weather and don’t plan on doing so as I doubt they’d be good for the colder months but for 12 hour shifts in sultry hot NJ summers, these are fantastic. I’ll buy them again when these wear out.
