## Questions & Answers

**Q: I saw somewhere that the heel to toe drop was only 2mm? Is this true? Is the toe box wider than normal to allow for toe splay? Or should i buy wide?**
A: Yes it is true, there is only a 2mm drop and the toe box is wider.  These were true to size and are very comfortable once you get use to the drop from wearing regular shoes.  I have loved my pair and have had them for about 6 months now.  I wear them every day and I work as a Sheriffs Deputy.  The only draw back is that with all the rain we have had lately my feet do get wet.  They are not water proof or resistant, they are a jungle boot style boot, though they do dry fast.  I just keep extra pair of socks with me when at work.  They are very quite when walking, when clearing house's I have been able to walk through homes like a "ninja" as my son says. They are very light on your feet and yet very comfortable.  You will feel each rock you step on due to the thin sole, but the lug system on the sole has been very good so far, unless you get into some really muddy stuff, which no shoe really holds up in. I would compare the toe box to the Birkenstock style toe box if you are familiar with there style shoe's.  Would I recommend this boot, YES most definitely.  If you have a problem with flat feet then no.  The support is not there, but that is not what this shoe was made for.  Hope this helps.

**Q: How well are these with oil/slip resistant?  I work in a kitchen for work.**
A: Haven't bought these yet, but I had a pair of leather minimalist shoes from vivo barefoot that didn't even have much tread on the soles, and I wore them to smithareens for two years in the kitchen. I'm sure these will work great.

**Q: I got to try on a pair, and the sole seemed rather hard - it would tap on the floor even when walking carefully. Do they get softer/quieter with wear?**
A: I've found that it depends on the type of floor you're walking on.  I've found them to be loud when walking on laminate flooring especially.  They're quieter on wood floors, but still a little 'tappy.'  Like Eric above says, they're actual minimalist boots and have a rugged sole with hard rubber or whatever.  So while they are a little 'tappy' just think, that's the sound of a long-lived sole.  They'll start to separate from the upper long before they wear out.

**Q: True to size?**
A: The size was maybe 1 or 2 sizes smaller and the shoes where not the same as an other shoe from Tactical Research that I allready have

    A good concept, but disappointing execution.
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on 22 October 2016*

After several weeks of almost daily use, I feel I can give this a proper review.Pros:- The shoes are lightweight- Insoles and outsole are thin- Minimal drop (as the name implies)Cons:- Heel lifts no matter what I've tried.- 8" boot with no zipper.- Thin sole can cause pain over time if you normally patrol on concrete/hard surfaces.- Heel cup WILL cause blisters without some form of padding during break in.- Break in period takes FOREVER.- Boot must be tied relatively tight, otherwise the outsole can be felt as your foot comes down.- Laces are slippery, so double knotting is essentially required.Notes:After a very lengthy break in period, the heel area no longer causes hot spots. However, I'd advise using a bandage over your heel until that area is broken in. I STRONGLY recommend against starting a day long patrol with these straight out of the box without some sort of padding there. The issue with the heel lifting is probably the most troubling. Since the heel lifts up, it causes even more friction on the heel even after it's broken in. I have tried several hiking techniques to lock down the heel, but you have to REALLY cinch it down to minimize it. I eventually purchased a pair of Superfeet Copper insoles to take up a bit of extra space and to assist with the heel lifting issue in addition to the heel lock lacing. This has made the shoes much better, but they still lift up a little. I blame the lacing across the ankle area as well as the heel cup design for this problem.***For those who are interested, lace up the boot 3 eyes from the front as usual. After the 3rd eye, loop the laces as though you are going to finish tying them, then loop them one more time. Then thread the laces through the same side (don't cross over). Continue lacing the boot as usual until you get to the 6th eye. Do the same triple loop you did after the 3rd eye. Now lace the boot up to the very top. What this does is give you 3 zones of tension. One around your foot, one at the ankle area, and one at the top around your calf. Adjust the tension you prefer around your foot, then cinch down the triple loop to lock it off. Then find the 2nd triple loop and pull the ankle area as tight as you comfortably can, then cinch it down. Then adjust the tension around your calf and tie your boot at the top. I usually add another triple loop as I'm tying it to help keep the laces from loosening up in the process. This is the ONLY METHOD I could find to keep the heel relatively planted while I'm running.See picture if the instructions aren't making much sense.***

    Great So Far, But No Water Resistance
  

*by D***G on Reviewed in the United States on 29 August 2020*

So far I have used the same pair of boots on backpacking trips, and as work boots for about the past year (landscaping/ outdoor work). They have also seen casual use. These are better than my Vivo FG Trackers, whose sole came undone while on a muddy back country trip with minimal use (few months, used exclusively for backpacking).  I don't notice any sign of sole detachment, and the leather has held up surprisingly well under all manner of abuse, and with relatively low maintenance (occasional wet cloth wiping and vaseline application).  I'm ordering a second pair in case these eventually fail, being impressed by their versatility and durability. My only complaint is that the textile portions of the boot are not at all water resistant, which makes the boot more breathable, but anything over ~ 1in. of water will soak the boot. They also offer no protection in cold weather, so if you plan on using this as an all season boot, make sure to wax the canvas, and buy a size larger to fit thick wool socks in there. Otherwise your feet will be very cold; I experienced it, even during the last weeks of winter in WV.

    Great boots, dishonest seller
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on 3 December 2023*

Boots are great, the seller is dishonest. I have worn out 6 pairs of these boots over 6 years. The last pair I received from outdoor equipped were used. When I returned them they still charged me $9 return shipping! So dishonest. I won't risk buying from them again.
