Men's Bates USMC Lightweight Durashocks

Ive had these boots for two years now, they are my first choice for dog mushing and hiking. Occasionally i have footing problems, lucky havent destroyed my ankle yet. Warm, waterproof and lightweight, best pair ive owned to date!

I bought two pair I purchased in 2010 and 2011, both are great, fitting good right out of the box. When they get caked in mud or moon dust just use a scrub brush and water and they look as good as new. Great arch, and heel support, shale and rocks dont seem to bother them or my feet.

These boots are great. Fresh out of the box I broke them in on a 12 mile hump and had not problems. These boots are NO LONGER ALLOWED AT OCS, which is why I'm looking for a new pair, sad to say.

I AM CONTRACTOR FOR DOD,MY FIRST PAIR OF BOOTS LASTED ME 3 YEAR. HOW MUCH ARE FEET WORTH? BATES BOOTS.

Bought these boots 2 years ago. Have never had a pair of boots that are this comfortable to wear and could stand up to the assault my feet take every day. The Idaho terrain, weather, and cinder rock has a tendency to eat boots and spit them out. My peers have bought 2-3 pairs of boots in the time I've had mine. While everybody else with issue boots are slipping around on the ice, my feet have been firmly planted. Its almost like there are little cleats on the bottom. The soles have began to wear, but the construction of the boot itself is still in good shape. Get these boots, you won't regret it.

These boots are amazing. I did over 300 foot patrols in Iraq in 2007 and never once did I have any trouble with these boots. In fact I still where them now. Nothing is falling apart, the tread still looks good. I couldn't of asked for a better boot.
