One Boot for Military Duty, Hiking, Work & the Outdoors
I’ve bought multiple pairs of these boots, and there’s a reason I keep coming back to them. I use them daily for military duty with my OCPs, and they have been outstanding for everything from long days of standing and walking to hiking, running with gear, outdoor work, and working in different weather and terrain. They are extremely lightweight, which makes a huge difference when you’re wearing them all day or carrying additional gear. They’re waterproof, warm without feeling overly hot, breathable, and provide excellent ankle support. That ankle support is especially important when you’re moving over uneven terrain and trying to reduce the chance of rolling or twisting an ankle. The funny thing is, my previous pair was still in great shape. I started wearing them outside of uniform for paramotor flying, outdoor work, and other activities because they were so comfortable and durable. Eventually, they got dirty enough that they no longer looked professional enough for office duty on base. That’s literally the only reason I bought another pair. The price is excellent for the quality you’re getting. These boots are durable, comfortable, lightweight, and built to handle serious use without costing a fortune. For what you get, I think the price is absolutely right. I’ve also recommended these to multiple military members, and several of them have purchased a pair and loved them as well. If you’re military, tactical, outdoors, hiking, working on your feet all day, or just need a durable boot that won’t destroy your feet after hours of wear, I highly recommend these.

Impressive for the price! Heel support is impressive!
These boots are incredibly comfortable. The heel support is impressive! The box-toe area of the boot in 12W is super comfortable and roomy—more so than my Nikes, Danners, or Under Armor. The genuine suede feels durable enough for fieldwork, too. I’d definitely buy them again, especially at this price. No more spending $185 on work boots!

Top notch
I'm genuinely not someone who usually writes reviews on things, but these boots are fantastic. If anyone is going back and forth between the 'free soldier' boots and these, I can verify that these are better. I work on a ranch and have had these boots remain comfortable and functional during 12–14 hour shifts as well as gotten my feet stepped on by heifers without injury. Doesn't take much time for them to be broken in at all. They do run slightly big, but maybe that's just because I'm a woman wearing men's shoes. Put on some wool socks and they fit great. Excellent value for money, don't let the price tag convince you it's a crappy shoe.

Bang For Your Buck!
Lightweight but sturdy, soles feel comfortable but could use more cushion for a work boot. Not steel toe but definitely hardened (top and tip), zipper feels good. Haven’t worn them to work yet though they are far better than my vans I was wearing before. Fits TRUE TO SIZE however if you have wide feet I’d half size up or check their Wide options

Your feet will thank you
Alright the first week with these is past and MY GOD are these comfortable. I spend 12 hours a day on my feet and they ALWAYS hurt. But these boots have been a Godsend. I literally feel like im walking on a cloud wearing these. My feet are very happy. I will say the ankle is a tiny bit uncomfortable as they break in but for the pain relief I feel ill deal with it. Do yourself a favor and grab a pair of these.

Very good boots that are perfect for construction work
Very nice boots I do masonry work as a laborer and there great I love the look and the cushion in the heel is like a hoka running shoe it's bouncy I'm 6'1 240 and have mostly worn redwings which are good but they don't have that good shock absorption from running up and down a scaffold like these do I also really like that I can tie these boots nice and snug and zip them up and I can zip them off without untieing and the laces don't loosen at all the traction is good as well just as good as a red wing or Irish setter haven't slipped on dry or wet surfaces I'm hoping that the sole will last at least 4 to 5 months but Soo far after a week I haven't seen any wear as of yet but time will tell as for water resistance I haven't tested it yet but as for any work boots that's not a muck boot I probably wouldnt walk in heavy mud or water that's more that 4 inches deep as with most boots water seems to always get in little by little I've got these in the summer I haven't had any issues with overheating or very sweaty feet I could see these boots possibly working in the winter if you doubled up on socks but I think insulated muck boots may be the way to go but overall these boots are definitely great if you work in the trades doing heavy labor I'd recommend being safe and getting the composite toe version of these because these offer no protection for you toes. I'd also order either a half or full size down as the sizing is off and the toebox is a little wider but no worries because the boot fits like a glove this is easily the best boot I've ever worn to work and the price makes it that much more worth it I'll be a returning buyer

A magick pair of kickers!
I was pleasantly surprised with these boots. I have been disappointed every time previously that I have bought boots on Amazon. These boots are light, extremely comfortable and have not fallen to bits or degraded like other brands I have purchased in the past year! I can wear them all day without the feeling of foot fatigue. They're a little flexible in the right places but very sturdy. I used to wear New Rock but I'll never buy the pathetic quality rubbish a decent brand has now become! I would not hesitate to buy another pair! A great, perfect fit, comfortable, affordable, stylish boot! 🤗

good but a little narrow
Comfortable and light. Even thouh I bought wide option, it is still a little narrow for front of my foot. Buying half size bigger and wider options are recommended.

These boots are way better than advertised and exceeded the specs.
When I first purchased the boots I’m retiring now, I really wasn’t convinced about comfort and durability for my job’s purposes. That is walking 4-5 km a day in all kinds of weather conditions and terrain. Ice, snow, freezing rain, tropical storm like rain and wind, mud and -40 Celsius cold all the way up to 40 degrees Celsius heat and 80+ percent humidity. Without proper care beyond wiping them down to keep them looking clean for aesthetics and so my employer doesn’t throw a sh.t fit at me for breach of “uniform “ regulations. These first Nortive8 boots lasted almost two years for 75$ so my point is I’ve had boots I paid 300$ where the mid sole was destroyed in 12 months and the boot still looked ok but with nortive8 both mid sole and boot are finished at the same time. I got my moneys worth and I feel vindicated in that I’m not throwing out 300$ of a good brand boots only because the mid sole failed before the boots themselves. So do yourself a favor and get the nortive8 brand, invest in quality insoles and protect the “leather” body of the boot and just forget about them until they fail. Size chart is on par. So a size 13 wide, is just that. The side zipper never failed and because I wasn’t taking care of them, the mid sole started separating but a bit of RC tire glue and overnight drying did the trick. These boots are a fantastic product and a good option for security guards, law enforcement or just normal wear in manufacturing jobs, just choose a boot that has safety toe caps. They are surprisingly light weight and nimble in scenarios where speed is required. I give them a high 5 stars rating and one other thing, what ever material they use inside the boot, my feet never stank after a 16 hour shift even after I was soaked from rain after a exterior foot patrol for one hour. At that price point, you seriously cannot go wrong with nortive8 tactical boots. I have injuries from falling hard on ice, my skeleton is out of alignment and one hip that was pushed upwards from a fall and with proper insoles, these boots got me through a lot of nasty conditions. Hey people over at nortive8 could you send me a prototype tactical pair of boots so I can put them through their trials. Thanks for manufacturing a true product
