Built with an innovative Tailex lining for superior adaptability, Reebok's 6" Rapid Response RB SZ boot is designed to deliver maximum arch support, shock absorption and comfort. The smooth leather and Cordura upper is resilient enough to handle rocky, mountainous terrain, as well as urban landscapes, and the dual-density rubber outsole maintains traction on any surface. There is an F2 dual-density polyurethane insert that features a thermoplastic polyurethane heel stabilizer to reduce foot fatigue and eliminate shock through the heel and forefoot. The cushioned EVA midsole provides much-needed rigidity for a comfortable stride and soft landings. There is also a side zipper for convenience, in addition to the traditional full-length lacing system. This model boasts a soft toe and electrical hazard safety for dangerous work conditions.

Still an overall excellent boot but not like my old chucks , size runs the same as the chucks so thats the same .The outsole and midsole are also the same so comfort and traction are consistent as the chucks .The obvious compromise is the the upper and the toe guard .the upper is thinner and way to pliable.Not sure how durable it will be .still supportive but is definitely a cheaper alternative to the old chucks. The biggest comprise to me has been the toe box . cheap ,cheap ,cheap . My old chucks were not a a composite or steel toe but man was the toe box SOLID .I put a crease in it by accidently kicking an office chair it creased my boot so bad I had to take it off and push it out so as to stop it from coming down on my toes . that really bugs me cause with old chuck soft toe I would never have worry about my toes. Its too bad profit gets in way of quality & performance our boys deserve every bit of protection they get at any cost. c`mon Reebok DONT TELL ME HOW GOOD YOUR ARE , SHOW ME . Like I said over all an excellent boot but cheapend by the name change . bummer. BTW i have a review of my old boot under the rb ct sz reviews. and again my old chucks were not a safety toe boot. just ended up there. hope this helps peace

I got exactly the performance product I expected.. Only 1 notable issue being the boots tongue being so padded as to cause laces to slip out of place several times daily, requiring an on duty stop for a "re-tie" for comfort..90% perfect boot..

The last pair I had lasted about a year in a harsh environment. These are great boots. The last pair I got from TACTICALGEAR.COM had a flaw but not a fatal one. The finger loops were made for a 12 year old girl. You cannot get your finger into them far enough for them to be of any value.

Shoes looks great. However, these have very rigid souls. If you are looking for Tennis Shoe comfort, don't let the name "Reebok" fool you. These are stiff, stiff, stiff. I have used and worn Oakley (loved them), Danner (loved them), Original Swat (OK), UnderArmor (loved loved them). I wanted to save a few bucks this time. Back to UnderArmor. They're worth the extra money.

I wear a size 14 and normally the shoes I find are not wide enough. I ordered the 14 Wide and there is plenty of room...almost too much. With a pair of wool socks I'm sure they'll fit just fine. I've only worn them for a couple of hours but they are becoming more comfortable. I am very happy with the purchase experience with this site.

Simply, very comfortable, convenient to put on, and a clean looking work boot. I spend hours on concrete floors and going up and down ladders, I feel these boots help get me through the day. Highly recommend to someone that comfort and support.

I especially like the side zipper making it easy to get foot I n and out, but what if zipper breaks then renders the boot useless?
Very comfortable and offers heel protection.

I always wear a 10 regular and these in a 10 reg feel large. I'm also having a hard time in that they are rubbing on my toes and not breaking in like all the other work boots I've purchased. Won't buy Reebok again as I'm on my feet all day and not only do they not fit well, they have been causing a bad lower back ache.

I have been using this boot style for 10 years plus. This was the 1st time I could purchase this boot style in a wide size . Since I have EEE width foot, these boots were immediately comfortable
