TACTICAL RESEARCH TR MAXX 6Z 6" Ultra-Cushioned Maximalist Black Tactical Boots for Men with Zipper - Designed for Police, EMS, and Security with Slip-Resistant Vibram Outsole

Very comfortable right out if the box. The right boot had a spot that rubbed my right ankle, but only lasted for one shift. These are pretty light weight and air flow is good. A good boot for summer.

Most comfortable work boot I’ve ever had.

I'm a 'maximalist' fan and have only found hokas to really fit that description. They are really narrow and expensive, plus I needed a low boot for a bad ankle. Skechers were getting close but not quite. These are fantastic! Very comfortable. I bought wide but probably didn't need it. Hopefully hold up over time.

I want to start out by saying when we received our boots they were actually missing their sole inserts, which was a little frustrating. However, after making contact with the company they were really helpful and responded immediately. They made things right within 3 days and we are now made whole. Excellent customer service :). The boots are a 10W, the fit is very comfortable, the composite doesn't irritate at all like steeltoe, not constraining at all. Biggest plus, and I can't stree enough, is they are very, VERY comfortable. Happy with this purchase and all around experience, would def recommend!

Grate boots very comfortable good material recommend/would buy agin

Shoes and boots ALWAYS make my feet hurt. It never matters how broken in they are, they always hurt my feet really bad. In addition to never being able to wear anything but sneakers without hurting my feet, my feet are extremely wide. I recently got a job as an EMT and we work 12 hour days. I ordered men’s because they tend to be wider than women’s. They actually fit my wide foot which I’ve never found a shoe that truly fits the width of my foot. usually I end up wearing out the side of it with my foot and it juts out on the side from the rest of the shoe.These boots were a touch big on me (which I anticipated because I didn’t want something too small I would rather have it a little big ) when I first tried them on. I knew if I went to half size smaller they would be too small. My foot was kind of in between sizes. The first day I wore them I got a really bad blister on the back of my foot because they were a touch too big. I bought some heavy duty thick socks, and that did the trick. I also have a very high arch, and they give me plenty support.Not only are these boots super comfortable but they do not hurt my feet at all even after 12 hours. I have never, ever found any footwear other than a sneaker that didn’t hurt my feet so bad I would hobble. They are made really well and I like the fact that I can get them laced up just right for fit and then there’s a zipper on the side to put take them on and off. I didn’t write this review right away because I wanted to make sure that they really didn’t hurt my feet. Normally I would’ve been hobbling after one 12 hour shift. I’ve been wearing them for about four weeks now and I have no issues at all. I will never buy another boot in my life. I’m shocked that I found a boot that doesn’t hurt my feet at all. I’m 50 and that’s never happened in my life. I always had to grin and bear it. I highly, highly recommend these boots if you want something comfortable and sturdy. I’m Impressed beyond imagination. I can’t say enough good things about them. I don’t write a lot of reviews. I only do if something is really really good or really really bad. If you’re on the fence about what boots to buy, buy these. They’re a little pricey, but worth every penny.

Great boot. 4.75 stars just not quite 5. For indoor and warm weather wear in dry areas wilth no sand or dust go ahead and buy them! Consider 1/2 size up if you have a high instep, wide toes or want to wear a heavy sock. Super cushioned and super comfy without being a sloppy fit, or a sliding insole or laterally slippery heel cup or other type of unstable fit. Great idea for Tactical Research to adopt an ortholite product for the insole. A step further by TR would be to further adopt the interchangeable ortholite insole system with two or three levels of arch support adjustability for varying foot types as well as for those with plantar fascitis. Great breatheability as the upper nylon is made of mesh. Sunlight actually shines through the mesh. The mesh will in no way be waterproof to a garden hose or standing water, but the breatheability is perfect for hot humid summer days. It might be nice to have a similar boot in roughout tan or coyote leather with a similar but tighter mesh. I think dust or sand would eventually work through the mesh in sandy or dusty soil environments. As far as sizing, the Tactical Research sizing is the same as typical running shoes-- THEY ARE NOT 1/2 SIZE LARGER AS SOME REVIEWS INDICATE. I believe Bellville brand combat boots might be slightly oversized ( for a thicker sock, and orthotic) , but Tactical Research are not. My 10.5 2E FATT MAXX boot is acceptable if I wear a thin coolmax type sock, but a thick boot sock makes the boot too small for me. Even with the thin sock I experience a bit of lateral toe rub at the leather toe of the boot. Bellville / Tact Research should adopt the timberland "TITAN XL" toe volume for this boot. That would make this the almost perfect boot. This is not a winter or extreme wet weather boot. It could be worn in winter..... just be aware of the open mesh construction-- it would be like an open mesh running shoe-- cold air would seep right in-- slush would be a disaster at ankle height. In warm climates however, the boot would be immediate draining if submerged and would evaporate liquid water (and evaporating water vapor) thru the open mesh if you happened to find yourself in a rainforest jungle. Durability is yet to be determined, but construction quality and workmanship appear to be quite good.

I recommend that you can see the confirmation of the boot, you can see it in centimeters in the size guide.

Got a blister at the back of my heal when I first put them on but overall they fit really good.... like them very much
