Yes, they are comfortable pair of boots and good pair to show off even if you are just SF-wannabes. Good for light-duty hiking and daily use. My friend in the service got me a pair because PX sells Oakley stuff at about 50% off the retail price. They are not for heavy duty. I have a desert version. They are not very breathable after some wear....even indoors. They would be good boots at about $100 at the most. Black version doesn't even have Gore-Tex materials. At almost $200, they should. If you plan to shell out that much cash for a pair of boots, I recommend Danner or Altima. They'll last you heck of a lot longer and your feet will appreciate 'em. Danner's desert version has Gore-Tex materials. For those of you who never had that type of boots, the difference in terms of comfort during extended wear on your feet is night and day. You can re-sole them as well after wearing out the bottom. Not possible with Oakley. Oakley make good products, but some of their pricing just doesn't make sense to me for what the products actually deliver. But if a cool factor matters more than functions and you don't mind shelling out a few hundred bucks, go for it.

got these boots issued when i deployed to OIF and ended up buying a second pair from oakley government sales. i love this boot. It is comparable in comfort to the blackhawk warrior wear but is a little bit lighter plus mine lasted a little while longer than the blackhawks. not saying blackhawk is a bad brand, their boots served me well the first time in iraq but oakley seemed to get it right with these boots. hat's off and highly recommended for anyone that needs a durable and dependable boot.

I wear size 11, but 10.5 with these boots. Comfotable and pretty durable. When the bottom of the boots become wet, noisy when walking on a tile floor. I seem to like it, and many Special operation soldiers wear them for their functionality.
