Garmont T8 Extreme GTX Insulated Tactical Military Boot

(After a 16 mile, 1,000Ft+ elevation change, and 7+ hour hike my feet were still comfortable and would be able to wear the boot for the rest of the day) Bought these boots because they are waterproof and we’re hopefully thin enough to hike warm weather and cold weather conditions. They were a little roomy and didn’t really have an issue with the insole but still decided to swap it out with a better one which, I couldn’t be happier that I did. They fit perfect now and don’t give me any issues when hiking in 100 degree weather nor do they give me issues in freezing rain. I’ve walked through mid calf streams and my feet stayed dry. I have stood in boot high water for long periods of time and they still kept my feet dry. I love the flat laces and the design as well. With a good pit of boots like these and a good upkeep they should last me years and years! The two photos I have are fresh after a cleaning so the leather is wet making them look darker, they are a true coyote brown when dry. Serious props to Garmont for making a boot I will buy again and comfortably wear every day.

Functions as expected and described. I broke these in by filling them with water and then wearing them for several hours while I did house and yard work. They broke in easily. I used them for a hunting trip in upstate New York and they did very well in the mountain terrain and sub-freezing weather. Very comfortable and great traction. I did order them a half size bigger and in the wide (vice the normal size width that I normal wear in my running shoes).

First off the boot looks amazing, even in bigger sizes. Second the quality and fit is very accepting for everyday use. Lightweight and durable with good ankle support. Chef's kiss right there. Even good for longer hiking/climbing trips with excellent breathability.

The 4 stars is because they run narrow sizing is not accurate. I wear a 11 regular/medium/D these are not size regular they run narrow. Had to send them back for refund. really wish they fit they are very nice boots

I was a little leery ordering boots online, but I took the risk, and now I'm glad I did! I'm an Army veteran, and I can tell you that quality boots make or break a troop that's on the ground. I normally have to buy half a size up for boots and shoes, as I wear a wide, but they offered my size and it fit perfectly. These boots will easily go into bunny boots if you work in the deep arctic like I do, although they're plenty warm for any climate you're likely to come across about +50 to -50 in latitude (Basically the southern border of Canada all the way to deep south Argentina.) If you're in Europe, these boots will do fine, as the Gore-tex lining helps keep your feet dry. If you're as far north as Norway, these boots may be sufficient, but you might want some bunny boots to go over them. They were a bit rigid out of the box, but that's to be expected. I soaked the inside with water and wore them around the house for a few hours. That broke them in immediately. I was on my feet for 10 hours yesterday, and didn't give my feet a second thought. Very comfortable and very highly recommended. I do recommend buying a suede boot cleaning kit to keep them looking nice, if you're concerned with such things.

Feet don't sweat inside the goretex, probably because the boot is breathable. Very light, very durable. The tread is very intense, good for ice and snow or trails. Comfy out of the box, ordered my normal size in wide and I have in-between wide and normal feet.

I bought these bc I had to go to 32 days of training at Camp Grafton in North Dakota. While I was there we had two snow storm and some weather that was in the teens not to mention freezing rain. Not open time did my feet get cold like in traditional boots and everytime it rained my boots never got wet. The rain would just bead up and roll off my boot. These boots are support comfortable and give great ankle support. My course was 7 days a week for 32 days so I wore these constantly and had not one issue. Take it from an Engineer soldier these are great boots and the price was surprising. If you have to buy military boots you know how expensive a good pair of boots can be!

I don't wear a wide boot in any other combat boot. Never have. But, these are NARROW. It takes narrow to another level. I bought a regular and a wide...they feel the same.
