Men's Rocky S2V Predator Military Boot

Pretty solid but super cheap laces that busted on a field op with 2 weeks of use. I never even yarned on the laces on the eyelets. Don’t make a field boot with laces that bust with a hand full of uses.

Best boot I have ever had.. been on 7 deployments and these are the only boot I'll wear.. good in cold and warn weather. Great for ruck marches...

Boots do not survive severe floods when performing land navigation. If you obtain boots that will be exposed to flooded areas, make sure they are not steel toe.

6 years, thousand of miles up mountains, across creeks and downs swamps, half the time used in construction as a work boot finally here I am buying a new pair of maybe the best boots ever made because I wore the soles flat. I let you in on a secret: if you size down 1/2 size remove the factory insoles for say install a senco flat insole these things will mold to your feet like no others a provide you with very little drop if any while still retaining some protection (shank and super picture resistant vibrancy outsole). The boots are super sturdy but still very flexible, the combo of materials is very well executed. My old pair still stands up! The toe box is wide but hugs the outside of your big toe so make sure the ball of your foot is not much further than the last eyelet. There is a slight curve in the sole that somewhat marks the spot. The heel is super solid and the boot itself provides a ton of ankle protection the upper above the ankle is mostly denier and is heavily padded and does get hot but draws moisture out efficiently. The eyelet are ok, they are somewhat loose, they like to spin after a few months and will trash your laces in a short minute. I “crimp” them up and they stopped spinning eventually but a standard round eyelet would be better in my opinion.

Although not aesthetically pleasing, these are the best Army Flight boot on the market.

after two pairs of S2V's both Sand and black leather that lasted around 6+ years -each- and were instantaneously comfortable, these however are painful to wear, so far I dread putting them on each day and prior to don't remember a break in period being this painful, if anything id say these run smaller then normal S2V's, ill do my best to break them in but so far am not impressed on any level in comparison to the original S2V's

Will not break in after weeks of wear. Has those short, sharp laces. Not too comfortable. Look good though, that's about it.

I’ve had mine for a 2 years and they’re just now tearing up. I wear them everyday and for every. ruck. I’ve done two 25mile rucks, three 12 mile rucks, and too many 4-6 mile rucks to count. They keep my feet dry for the most part. I’m stationed at fort drum, NY where the winters are hectic. I still wear these during winter months unless I’m going to the field.

I have had these about six months now and love them I am not In the military but do train like I am and wear these boots on and off the range, backpacking, and even to school. Absolutely love them and would recommend.

I bought about 3 weeks ago broke them in and they have no ankle support what so ever they could use ankle support no doubt about it. I was hoping they'd be a little better since I bought my last pair about 4 yrs ago but they haven't changed a bit but they need ankle support I know they're for mountainous terrain and all but that's how I figured it out with the first pair and second pair.

Solid boots, well built and have a good look. Comfortable and decent for summer months.

I wore size 9 Bates Combat boots for 4 years. I wore Size 9 Timberland Boots for one year. I am size 9. These Rocky's don't run small in the heel, or the width, or even the top of the toe box. The problem is in the curvature of the toe box by the big toe. While breaking them in I got ingrown toenails on both of my big toes. They seemed to fit so I took care of my toe, let them heal up, and finished breaking the boots. I hoped that this would not be an issue once they were broken in. Then I wore them hiking, and I still noticed the corner of my big toes getting irritated. When I contacted customer support about exchanging for a half size up because of this issue, I was offered a coupon code if I wanted to buy another pair of boots from them. If you buy these, be prepared to make a judgment on the fit before you "wear them outside." Try it on like glass slipper to make a judgment if fits as combat.

The day After I received these boots I did an 8 mile ruck, followed by 5 days on the Appalachian Trail (10+) miles a day. No blister. No pain. Nothing but comfort and amazement from me. 100% worth the money. I was and am honestly so impressed and amazed!

I bought these boots for a coworker and after wearing them for a week he already wants another pair . Said he’s never owned such a comfortable work boot !

Glad I went with the Rocky’s . Looked at all brands and these are the best value for the money.

I have used other tactical boots but the difference between the Rocky quality was obvious the second I put them on! The support/weight/durability is a perfect balance, the boot doesn’t weigh you down but at the end of the day your feet still feel great! These things can take a beating so your feet don’t have to! Do yourself a favor and get yourself a pair!

this is my second pair of Rockys, this boot is even better than the last pair. out of the box ran a 7k with 36lbs no hot spots, the following week did another 7k with 3k through the river. dried quickly and feet felt great.

I bought this boot “about a week ago” for military use. Currently on a ship and needed and good boot for traction, however, I’m currently training for SF, so I needed a boot to run in and hold up to the torture of that. This boot is perfect. Light weight, sturdy, good traction, and feels good too. Also, runs true to size

The fit was by far the thing I was worried about and got the exact fit for my feet. Incredibly comfortable, keeps my feet dry and breaths very well. I’m on my feet all day everyday and I have yet to have achy feet!

Fits well, great quality and breaks in easily. Great customer service.
