Who wears tactical boots and why? A wide variety of people wear tactical boots, such as law enforcement officers, first responders, outdoor enthusiasts, and more. These folks require footwear that can perform in a variety of physically stressful situations, as well as extended time out in harsh elements.

When we originally set out to create a multi-functional tactical boot, we soon realized that we could take the meaning of “multi-functional” even further. The ‘MF’ all our boot models stand for ‘Multi-Functional.’ Here’s a quick guide to our boot types by name and what, specific multi-functionality we had in mind.

Multi-Functional Tactical: MFT100-Z

ALTAI™ MFT (Tactical) Styles – starting with the original MFT100, the full MFT style boots are designed to accommodate law enforcement officers, security professionals, and first responders and the haphazard nature of their jobs. From long hours/miles on patrol to emergency rescues, each MFT boot meets uniform requirements and performs above and beyond the call of duty. Select between full SuperFabric® or leather toe for specific departments’ uniform requirements.

Multi-Functional Military Grade: MFM100

ALTAI™ MFM (Military Grade) Styles – with the same performance expected from all our boots, our MFM style boots are speced to meet standards expected for combat zones. With breathable, waterproof SuperFabric®, extensive time spent in the field will be a breeze; your feet to stay dry, comfortable, and you can stay focused on the mission at hand.

Multi-Functional Hiking: MFH200-S

ALTAI™ MFH (Hiking/Hunting) Styles – waterproof, breathable, lightweight, AND suited for blending into the great outdoors. Anti-clogging lugs in our Vibram® outsoles will have you trekking with your best foot forward; avoid heavy, muddy build up.

Tactical Boots: A Step Above The Rest

In a sea of footwear for rugged activities, you may find yourself wondering, “Who wears tactical boots and why?” Well it turns out, there are a wide variety of professionals from hunters to law enforcement professionals who greatly benefit from tactical boots over any other style of footwear.

Law enforcement officers were the original inspiration for our first style of tactical boot. Police officers wear tactical boots to give them an edge on performance when on the job. Between long patrols to sudden long-pursuit chases, officers need the perfect balance between lightweight and durable. Heavy duty boots tire a body that stays active while working and a lightweight sneaker won’t make the cut with the kind of action these professionals see day to day. See what this officer thought of our boots for the job.

Other professionals like EMTs, paramedics, and similar first responders wear tactical boots with side zippers for quick gearing up in the event of a call or emergency. Every second counts when these heroes are on the job.

Tactical boots can also be used for recreational activities like hiking, hunting, paintballing. If you can think of a way to toil on your feet all day on a job that requires quick reflexes, then tactical boots are a great fit for your feet. With all these needs in mind, we build our tactical boots to exceed the standards of their users. Check out our full range of boots at our store today.
