These Haix boots have a wide fit and two-zone lacing, so they also work on people with wider insteps.

Features in detail

Waterproof Gore-Tex membrane

Highly breathable Gore-Tex inner lining will keep your feet dry and comfortable while your team advances through water-dripping tunnel systems under the city. Dry feet, no distraction, full focus on the task at hand.

Anti-slip sole

The distinctive tread design combined with the special rubber compound will maintain its traction on various surfaces and in many types of weather. The high-density midsole won't have you feeling every rock and stone either on those tough treks behind the enemy lines.

Supportive cushioning with HAIX Absorption

These boots will keep you feeling comfortable when you are on the move all day. The built-in cushioning in the sole acts as shock absorption, effectively cushioning each step, while the energy return in the sole helps reduce foot and leg fatigue on long marches. There is also a stabilization zone for optimal pressure distribution on uneven terrain.

HAIX Ankle Protector System

The tall leg is already quite supportive, but the padded HAIX ankle protection zones prevent injuries to the ankle even further. As an added benefit, the ankle protector can act as a "brake" when crawling on angled surfaces.

Breathable Haix Climate System

This system keeps your feet cooler when it’s hot and warmer when it’s cold. The boots allow your feet to breathe by absorbing the moisture from your feet into special foams between the inner lining and the leather. With every step you take, moist air is released, and fresh air comes in through the Micro-Dry fabric mesh at the top of the boot.

Very comfortable 2-zone lacing

Independently adjust the upper and lower part of your boot just the way you like it for a very comfortable fit. Like it tight across the foot but looser on the leg? You can do that. Like it tighter across the ankle for more ankle support? You can do that, too.

The boots feature a tab at the top of the lacing, behind which there is a lace pocket to tuck the laces in. This prevents the laces from snagging or tripping you up.

Extremely lightweight

These are among the lightest 8" leather boots out there. Their lighter weight reduces foot and leg fatigue when you are on the move all day.

Made in Europe

These boots are made at the Haix production sites in Mainburg, Germany and Mala Subotica, Croatia.

Cushioned insoles included

These boots come with removable, cushioned, and moisture-wicking insoles that give you the extra comfort your feet need. They can be washed in up to 30°C (86°F).
