Afghanistan’s topology is a rocky challenge for traditional combat boots. From the lowland’s rock strewn wadis to the boulder and scree covered valley walls in the north, the only unifying features are the dry, rocky soil and crazy elevation changes. Sticky rubber soles, lighter materials and updated midsole designs have units switching from traditional combat boots to technical hiking boots despite the increased cost.
Five Ten made the Pursuit shoe for military, special ops, SWAT, fire rescue and all other first responders.These brave men and women dash into burning structures, rappel down the sides of cliffs andhigh rise buildings, and protect all of us from harm. The highly-specialized stealth® Phantom™ outsoles offer the highest friction available, the non-squeak, non-marking and rugged, protective non-reflective leather uppers make this the shoe of choice for the tactical market.
The Pursuit is a boot with a mission: prevent ankle rolling. Developed specifically for tactical forces of the U.S. military—guys who jump out of airplanes and scramble along cliffs at night—this sturdy midcut hiker is just as effective for backpackers who prize security and traction on dicey terrain.
