This is one hell of a boot. Discovered this boot during my first tour in Iraq, having been issued them as a part of the rapid fielding initiative. Never wore any other boot since, with the exception of the 8 inch military version. They are extremely comfortable and have a fit and feel of tennis shoes instead of boots. They also hold up very well in rugged terrain. Being in the military gave me the ability to buy direct from Oakley at a discounted price and while this is an excellent boot, it is not worth full price. Way overpriced! If you can afford them and you work on your feet, then you can't go wrong with this boot.

I love these boots. Just like the assault shoe, they are incredibly comfortable for long hours on your feet. You can run in these boots as well. Some may say they are expensive, but when you wear them every day, it's worth it. Whether working for a private security force, or climbing mountains with supermodels, these boots are perfect. I don't submit reviews often, but when I do, I like to post them after drinking a few Dos Equis.

Awesome boot. I'm a police officer and have had 2 pair. I beat the hell out of 'em on a daily basis. I had a pair for my numerous deployments in the military as well and they held up in the desert and in the mountains. Recommend this boot to anyone.

As some others have said, these run just slightly large, a half size. I normally wear 10.5 and I ordered the same size. I could have sized down to 10, but I chose to keep these so I could have the roomier toe box due to the slight larger size. Overall a great, super comfortable boot, so much better than a pair of BlackHawk Warrior Wear boots I tried out. Laces are super long (too long), but the extra length can be wrapped around the ankle at the top of the boot.

Great boots. As comfortable and durable as anything I've ever worn - right out of the box. No break in required. Excellent ankle support. Good inserts. Great service from Zappos as well.

These shoes require very little break in. I work construction and wear my Oakleys about 12 hours a day. I also ride a Harley and were them when I ride.I wish they would waterproof them better, but all around they're great.

6' Boot, Desert, Hot Weather -
Superlative comfort, prohibitive heat retention. Deployed with these and they are the pinnacle of comfort, but even when idle, your feat will perspire excessively. I love all Oakley products, and they have remedied many early problems associated with the boot. However, it could afford to shed some weight if it can be done without sacrificing durability.

I was in the military for 8 years, and I wish I would have had these all along. If you are looking for a boot that functions like a shoe, look no further. They are a little expensive for not being waterproof, but they are at least all leather.

Very light and comfortable. Not a heavy duty boot, but if you are looking for something lightweight this is it. Just think of these as high top tennis shoes that are tactical. When I was in the army and stationed in Panama we had the jungle boots, which had a heavier duty sole. I wear these for most occasions, except if I’m going to be encountering some heavy duty terrain such as serious mountainous terrain or an extremely cold environment. Only wish they were waterproof, especially for this price. Most boots at this price are waterproof.

So far so good!
First, I've got some very tender feet and I'm fussy about how they fit. I purchased these boots because of what I have heard about them. "Comfortable right out of the box" was what I was looking for and so far so good! I have a 32 mile backpacking trip with a vertical gain of 4000'. I've been wearing these boots daily for the past couple of weeks and they are proving to be as advertised. I do wear an inner non-abrasive sock with an outer wool blend hiking sock and it's working out quite well. No blisters and the insole is conforming to my foot. I'll let you know after the hike how well they fare.

Terrific boots - I'm not in the military and I don't really need these as work boots but I wear them nonetheless, and I love them. Very comfortable, very sturdy and they look awesome.

The shoes felt a half size larger than marked. Other than that, the shoes are excellent, comfortable and light, despite their physical size.

Unusually comfy -
Ordered three pairs of boots -- ASOLO Flame and the Adidas GSG-9.2s along with this pair. Neither of the former fit me. This pair in 9W fits my 8.5EEE feet unusually well and have hiked a few miles on concrete in them without any problems, but have not tried to kick in a door in them yet.

Better than my last pair -
This is Oakleys 3rd version of the assault boot. As before, they are about a 1/2 size smaller than marked. This was true with the earlier versions to ensure your foot would not slide around in them. This is the lightest boot of its type which makes them feel like sneakers. Comfort is a premium and the cushioned sole prevents fatigue during long wear. My last pair lasted about 2 years and these should do the same. The upgrade on this version seems to be that they grip well on wet surfaces which was a problem before. I wear mine every day.
