Incorporating an innovative Tailex lining to adapt to changing foot positions, Reebok's 8" Rapid Response RB SZ is a hard-working tactical boot with optimum shock absorption and comfort. The leather and Cordura upper is ultra-durable and protects feet in hazardous conditions, while the rubber outsole grips on any terrain with superior traction. There is a cushioned polyurethane midsole molded to provide a supportive, comfortable fit and a TPU heel stabilizer built into the FootForce insole that eliminates shock through the heel and forefoot. The FootForce insole, while removable, is also designed to reduce foot fatigue and promote a healthy stride. There is also a side zipper for convenience, in addition to the traditional full-length lacing system.

Since Reebok took over the Converse version of this boot it has really dropped the ball. This boot has an awful sole on it that isn't even flat from side to side. It's like the molding was all messed up so the boot doesn't even sit flat on the ground. The heel has a new material that feels like very stiff cardboard that runs the back here and Achilles tendon bad. I hate that v they destroyed this boot because it was one of only a very few that truly fit wide feet and didn't roll inwards while walking. Will never buy from Reebok again!

These are the best boots I have ever brought. I was having issues with my feet hurting from wearing my boots all day. Tried these and my feet no longer hurt. I am on my second pair. After showing the boots to my brother-in-law and nephew, they purchased a pair and love them too.

I've owned two pairs before this. Only had problems with one pair on the zipper.
Good boots until now. The arch support disappeared. Why, I don't know. Completely uncomfortable. Sending back. Asl, returned the composite toe. Toe area far too narrow for the average foot.

Not very comfortable......I had a pair of Converse boots that were close to these boots...that were much more comfortable.....I have donated these Reebok's to our local Thrift Store....!

But.....I will continue shopping for other items from your company.....!

Best boots I have ever owned. Have had mine for over 2 years now and put them through a lot. Sucking mud up to my ankles, snow, and all the other nasty weather you could think of. Extremely comfortable in any weather condition I have been in so far.

Decently water resistant to a certain degree. The cons are sometimes the tread pattern can easily grab and hold rocks and debris No protective cap has not been an issue but I have not taken any major impacts to my toes while wearing them.

I'm very pleased with my Roobok Mil spec boots. Comfort is awesome with very short to no break in required. First time using the Repid Response style and I see myself continuing use them and you for further purchases.
Thank you

Disclaimer..... I did not purchase my boots from Militarty Gear so this review is for the boots only. My first pair of these boots lasted a whopping 10 days on duty. I'm not exaggerating!! The stitching came loose from one whole side of them. I returned them only to wait almost 30 days for my replacements. The new ones looked great. Now after 6 months the soles are coming completely off deeming them useless and embassasing to wear.

Ive had two pairs, Cons and Reebok, both lasted over a year with every day wear, 6-7 days a week industrial career,
the boot eventually begins to separate along the upper sole, the laces are nothing to brag about, they'll snap at any time, the tongue for some reason shredded early on,
but they are very comfortable, they are very light and very professional looking,

Excellent support and comfort. No need to "break in" - ready to wear right out of the box. This is my second pair (have desert tan) and will continue to purchase when needed
