Customer Reviews adidas GSG-9.2

These boots are VERY comfortable! They are lighter than other boots I looked at, and have great support. And they look great! I bought them for a photography trip to the Olympic Peninsula. I walked through mud and water all weekend, and my feet stayed dry and warm the entire time. They are so comfortable and look so good, that I have been wearing them to work!

These are great tactical boots. I would highly recommend these boots to anyone working in law enforcement or on any type of tactical entry team. These boots fit like athletic shoes. There is no bulk, lightweight great treads. Like all Adidas (for me) they are narrow. Other than that, awesome boots that are well worth the price. The leather upper is very lightweight, so not very abrasion resistant. They are very comfortable boots. I love them.

I'm a female officer and I absolutely love these boots! They fit like tennis shoes, no complaints here. I love them so much I got some for my boyfriend who is also an officer and he loves them! Great boots and even greater customer service from the Zappos team!

Very comfortable boot. The arch support isn't great, but if you add an after market one its perfect. I agree with most others, if this is a sustained deployment situation, you may want a stiffer boot. For duty though, its excellent.

These boots are amazing. I had been considering them for quite a while but tried out a bunch of other cop style boots first. I could have saved so much money if I had gotten these first. They are the greatest boots I have ever owned hands down. They are ultra-light and durable, incredibly comfortable and waterproof! They are very slip resistant on smooth surfaces despite the hiker style lugs. I was not sure about the look of them for a long time. Now it has really grown on me.

This is the only work boot that my husband will wear. He has had 3 generations of the GSG-9's and will stay loyal. His only wish is they make them in a tan also. He loves them because he can be highly maneuverable and comfortable in all situations. Super thumbs up to Zappos superb customer service and they got it to us in less than 24 hours!

I recently received my Adidas GSG 9.2's and they look and feel great. The overall Zappos shopping experience was even better than what I expected. Thanks.

Holly cow, this boot is amazing...I have a pair of entry level bates boots that are nice, but I wanted something better. So I bought 5.11 tacticals best boot, and they were horrible. Very heavy. Didn't fit well and just flat out killed my feet. I was about to go up the ladder and get a better set of Bates when I found these. And they are perfect. They actually fit like a sneaker and so far have been waterproof and pretty breathable. Keep making these Adidas.

They fit like a Adidas running shoe, by far the most comfortable boot I have ever worn. They are actually more comfortable then most shoes I have worn. The sole is very soft, resulting in more grip then you will know what to do with. The boot does leave black streaks fairly easily though due to the sole being so soft. Best boot I've ever worn. Sizing is the same as Adidas shoes.

These are the best boots ever made. They are extremely comfortable, have great traction and are very durable. I'm going to buy another pair for when the pair I just bought wear out they are so good.

Great boots. Very light weight and sturdy. Although I own several pairs of similar type of boots these are different in that there is more arch support. True that the laces are slow to do up but I also don't fully undo them afterward. If they were waterproof that would make them ultimate but they are still great. For a great street and off-road boot this one is a prime candidate.

Great looking boots, but narrow and runs at least a 1/2 size small.

I had been wearing a pair of the original made-in-germany GSG9's for 5 years and I ordered these as a replacement/upgrade. The originals had two big problems: the sole wore down really fast and they were slippery on some wet surfaces. The 9.2 version don't suffer from either of those issues and they improve on the original with proper waterproofing, better ankle support and tougher materials and construction. The closest I can come to a negative comment is that like their predecessors they don't use speed-laces so they can be a bit slow to lace up in the morning. They are also quite warm, even in 20 degree weather I only needed a light pair of socks, so they are not ideal for hot environments but they're great for mud and snow and rain.

If you have a large narrow foot this is your boot. I wear a 14 B and good luck trying to find a boot that is not a D or fatter in this size. I guess "they" think that if you wear a 14 then your foot must be 14 wide also. These boots are very comfortable and flexible. I have had several foot chases for a few blocks and running in these boots is the same as your regular running shoes. Very comfortable. Running in "Magnums", forget it! Like trying to run with clown shoes on. The Adidas are great! Gave a 4 for style because of no zip side.

I have worn boots like this for going on 30 years and I have to say this is the most comfortable pair I have ever worn. No break-in period like my other pairs; they were soft enough to walk all day in, but have the support and protection you'd look for in a boot. The tread pattern is very similar to the Adidas trail runners so they are very good in slick conditions and snow. I typically wear an exact 12 in Adidas and I ordered this size; they fit like a glove. The only thing I would add to these would be a pull loop on the top-back to help with pulling them on, but besides that I couldn't be more positive about them. Excellent. And price-wise they stack up against military boots that are much more expensive so they are an excellent value for the price. On top of this I received them in less than 24 hours from Zappos which is pretty amazing.

First of all, I live in Europe and it's not the area where Zappos ships to, but I have to say customer service was very helpful so I could easily organize getting 2 pairs to me and my brother, who is at the special forces in the army. I got the shoes within 10 days (from the date of order to EU!). Thanks a lot Zappos.com! GSG9.2 looks very nice, very comfortable. Inside it's soft sports shoes, outside military boots. I took part in a 3 days surviving contest and had no problems at all with climbing rocks, keeping my feet warm without getting wet and taking part a hill-up run contest (won it). Arch and ankle support is very good, sole is flexible enough, thus boots are really all-rounders. I can say only one word as my opinion: perfect! My brother is loading his pair heavily day by day at the army with trainings and GSG9.2 helped him a lot, his test results became much better as these boots are pretty light so all physical activities are easier this way. My experience after the surviving contest that 3 days in a forest in wet conditions require to use some kind of impregnation to improve dryness. Although the boots are marked as wet-proof, it is needed at the Gore-Tex areas. I would say it's wet proof 90-95%, but to have 100%; spray it! The only thing that needs to be kept in mind: Adidas makes narrow shoes. My feet are narrow so they are perfect for me, but anyone with a wider foot can feel them a bit tight.

Short story, these boots are what you have been wanting. That, in point, is why you are in fact reading this review in the first place. You look at them and think two things. Number 1: "These boots will allow me to accomplish tasks I have been trained to accomplish, and I will do them while completely comfortable, I will have great traction while doing so, and I will also look really tactical doing so". Number 2: "I want to pretend to be a tactical version of myself that I fantasize about in the video game that I play at home." Either way, they are amazing, high quality boots. They are comfortable right out of the box, and are made extremely well. The sole will bite the dust long before the rest of the boot, so if you want to play around, there are cheaper alternatives that do the job without the cost. Just saying.

The best boots in the world - Comfortable, light, excellent boots of tactical assault, as all the adidas boots offer a great support, good look, 100% recommended!

WOW!!! These boots are extremely comfortable. I can run a 3 to 5 miler well. Stands up to repeated vertical insertions with little to no wear. The bonus is they also look awesome.

Awesome... I looked long and hard for the perfect shoe…and this is it! Tough and comfortable. I’ve owned them two months. So far I have... … Crossed shallow creeks where the water was ankle high, all kinds of snow, ice and puddles- feet stayed dry. … Climbed snow covered trees and they gripped better than anything I had previously experienced. ... Walked all day on NYC pavement with no fatigue. ... Even played soccer with them and they where "ok" considering, not a scratch on them. Most highly recommended.
