Customer Reviews Bates Footwear Tactical Sport 2 Tall Side Zip Comp Toe

These boots were hell to break in but once they were I wouldn't choose any other boots. I'll be getting another pair soon.

These boots were fantastic, its been over a year now and i need another pair, yet they're not available in my size now and we (21st century equipment) cant get a response about adding them to our "company approved" selection

Great product great fit easy on easy off!

The fitment of the boot is great! I have a pretty wide foot and even with a Medium width it feels perfect! I usually wear an 11 in Vans so I got a size 10 and it’s got the perfect amount of room for my whole foot with just a very small amount of room for my foot to grow into, all in all it was a great choice!

Havent broken them in yet, but for sure go down half a size. I wear a 10 in nike/jordans and 10.5 in yeezy. the size 10 in these boots were way to big, 9 too tight, 9.5 just right (both regular and thick socks).

Great boots all around. I did find the toebox a little narrow, even with the wide fit. I wish zappos still carried these, I need new shoes and all the others i've tried just weren't as comfortable.

Perfect

I NEED ANOTHER PAIR JUST LIKE THE FIRST PAIR I GOT

Absolutely love these boots!!! Would have bought them again last year if they were still available. Work in a warehouse walking the unforgiving concrete for upwards of 11 hours and they held up great for nearly two years before I had to take them to a shoe shop to get the stitching replaced in the back where it finally broke down. During year three I started to get foot pain in my heal from wearing them but this was resolved after finding a good gel heal insert. Wish there were more brown or not-black leather side zip boot options available through the Amazon Zappos Mind your Step program. They can be a bit snug though if you wear a thick/heavy winter sock.

The fit was perfect and I Grateful… thank you

Best boots I've ever had for the Amazon warehouse floor. Comfortable, nimble, super stylish, wide enough for my toes. I want these every year.

They took some breaking in, initially they run at the back of the foot. After a few weeks they are they're wonderful. I've had them for 2 years now and they're still holding up.

Best boots by far, loyal customer for over 7 years, the only safety toe item I wear.

Bates are the best boots for industrial and operational work, lightweight, durable, they shine very well. I have worn Bates products for many years with no complaint only satisfaction. I purchase a pair or two each year as part of my health and foot safety. No other product has compared to the Tactical Sport 2 tall side zip- forever customer.

heavier duty zipper is needed for the side zip, zipper tends to fail due to wear.

These boots are incredibly light and comfortable for work. I work at a warehouse and have to stand for 10 hour shifts lifting and walking. I struggled with other boots because they would always be too tight and not offer anything wider than EE which would cause my feet to always sweat. I also get half a size up to accommodate for winter socks when the cold season comes around.

Great boots, excellent for long shifts, flexible yet offers firm support.

Great even when needing to run, excellent arch support.

Amazing boots, extremely comfortable even walking 25 miles a shift.

Great comfort and support, wear for a 10 hour shift on my feet a lot

True to size. They're so comfy and I work 12 hours shifts no need to break in although I recommend using long socks
