Paramedics – This group of amazing professionals definitely sit high on the list of people who rely on their feet to do their job. Staying calm under pressure, these men and women are trained to save lives in the trickiest, time-sensitive scenarios; every second counts.
The stamina of these fine folks is incredible and it has to be. Long hours and thousands of calls mean constantly thinking on your toes. Heavy gear is unacceptable in this occupation and we all know that over-use of lifting heavy feet can cause fatigue, sometimes, injury.
Combining Vibram® soles and SuperFabric® is our solution for a better-performing boot in the class of weight. Every pair, approximately 40 oz, have the lightweight feel of a sneaker but with the precision of a tactical boot.

Some of the toughest occupations in the world are not the ones you always expect. Tree fallers, wildlife officers, paramedics, the list goes on… and so do the folks in these types of jobs. Today we spotlight tree fallers and the occupations that demand 110% from its workers and how we strive to improve every single step.
Tree Fallers – Chainsaws, sharp axes, broken branches, rock, and typically, some of the most untamed forests make tree falling an extremely rugged job; not for the faint of heart. While leather is a common material used to fend off these kinds of nasty, sharp objects, we all know how easily leather erodes under long-term, daily abuse. All it takes is one decent scuff and that’s the beginning of the decline of your work boots.
SuperFabric® materials change the game when it comes to long-lasting, durable work boots. With this futuristic level of abrasion and slash resistance, we were able to engineer a better boot, meant to thrive in these kinds of harsh environments.
Are you a tree faller or work in a similar rugged environment? We dare you to take the next step and experience the ALTAI™ Difference.
Your old work boots. You’ve put them through the ringer, day in and day out. But if your job is anything short of a desk job, you know how quickly that relationship ends. The typical work boot lasts anywhere from 7-8 months; we decided to push those limits and, once again, future material SuperFabric® was key in extending the durability of a reliable work boot.
Used in a variety of applications, SuperFabric® is the solution for many industrial-grade wear and tear problems. Many Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) companies incorporate the guard plated textile for some of the highest safety standards. Our boot engineers thought, “Hey, hard-working feet deserve that kind of durability out of one pair of boots, too.”
After 500 miles of training through rain, snow, hot weather, these pair have really shown their Born To Outperform™ roots. Many of our customers still have their original pair of MF Tactical boots from our early days! We’re proud to be give you exactly what we aimed to: a super-rugged, work boot that works as hard as you do and can also throw down in any tough situation.
Leather, suede, nylon, canvas, waterproof sealed seems, plastic, metal, and rubber; the list of traditional boot materials goes on. We, at ALTAI™ realized that for the hardest working feet in the world, these materials just won’t make the cut. And here’s why.
Suede, leather, and other animal skin or faux version has a relatively delicate surface texture. A quick scuff against a cement block or an unexpected tangle with a thorn bush are kinds of activities that put that brand new “pristineness” out of a new boot in an instant. Overtime, thousands of little scuffs and scrapes add up to eventual boot failure. Seems like a waste: we want to build a stronger boot.
It’s just one of the reasons our boots are all made with SuperFabric® materials for the upper construction. SuperFabric® is made of tiny guard plates covering the boot, deflecting rock, ice…. Whatever you throw at it. In fact, many motorcycle gear makers use the same material in their protective gear. SuperFabric® creates a protective barrier between the pavement and a rider, especially in the event of a crash that causes the rider to slide across the road. A material that can save a motorcyclist’s life; we decided that hard working feet deserve that level of protection, too.
And like we always say, don’t take our word for it; take our real-world reviewers’ words. Watch as Ghosthawk Prepper demos what happens when a machete and box cutter meet our boots.
Our champion boot component: SuperFabric®.
Rugged, work boots. You’ve probably tried them all: leather, nylon, some fancy new synthetic that promises durability beyond your wildest dreams. And if you have a truly rugged job, you’ve probably been let down by a pair of boots with early wear and just won’t get the job done.
We at ALTAI™ recognized the obvious need for a superior level of durability for the hardest working feet in the world. Usually, people compromise and opt for thick, heavy boots to get the durability they need. Or, durability is compromised for the sake of comfort and dexterity.
So we engineered a boot that does not compromise either. SuperFabric® is our champion-component that allows for maximum abuse to your boots, while remaining freshly clean and ultra lightweight for long, extended hours. Made up of precisely placed, small, durable guard plates protect an underlying fabric from destruction. Unlike leather or nylons, SuperFabric® resist fraying and also provides a tough barrier from scuffs that compromise protection and aesthetics, making them an ideal slash resistant material.
With every pair of our boots, you can forget about rips, snags, and tears, so you can focus on what really matters: the task at hand. Learn more about how we’ve stepped up the durability-game with SuperFabric® here.

”The high combat boots are an outstanding boot for police work. The boots are very well made. I wore them right out of the box and they were extremely comfortable. The customer service I received was more than helpful and professional. I ordered a half size smaller then I normally wear and they fit perfectly. Thank you! ”
Review by Bob H
”Bought the MF Tactical boots about a year ago, wore them right out of the box and were one of the most comfortable pair of boots I’ve owned. Lightweight, comfortable, still water proof after a year of wearing them every 12 hour shift. The boots wore well and held together other than the typical scuffing on the toe area. ”

The upper part of the boot is designed above the ankle to allow for added support, all day comfort, and to prevent the elements from leaking into your work boots. We use SuperFabric® material in this section which provides breathability, yet protectiveness for your feet to stay dry, lightweight, and protected. The midsole of the boot is made with Ethylene-vinyl acetate, a waterproof and shock absorbent midsole that provides all day comfort.

My local postman has been wear-testing the MFT200S since they debuted in September 2015. I saw him today, as he was like always, wearing the tough pair of work boots on his route. When I asked how he has been enjoying the particular pair, he had great things to say about the footwear. He’s worn them every working day since September, putting about 8 miles per day on them. He also wears them during the weekend, and believes he is averaging about 50 miles per week on the boot. Doing the math, he’s put about 1200 miles on the boots since he received them – and look how great they look! He said they’re terrific boots and have lasted longer than most other boots or shoes he’s tried for work. He loves the boots and highly recommends them! Which is always a great response to hear and we get it quite often, humbly of course, we appreciate the feedback and love to continue creating comfort for everyone.
