Description

All of these combine to create a durable, jungle-appropriate piece of gear that will stand up to the, perhaps, uniquely destructive environment that is a tropical jungle. Weight Features: This jungle boot is a full grain leather upper with a synthetic sole. Made for women and imported, the 8- Eye patent leather boot is smooth, durable and has a smooth finish. The durability is owed to the fact that the boot is made with GoodYear welt, with the upper and sole heat- sealed and sewn together. It has an air cushion sole that is oil and fat resistant thus offering great abrasion and slip resistance As you shopping for one, go for a light one that provides stability as well as support. Value for money

Jungle boots are a type of combat boots that are designed especially for use in the jungle warfare or in surroundings that are hot, wet and humid where ordinary leather combat boots or any particular kind of shoes would not be suitable or comfortable to have on. A good jungle boot is one that you ensure you stay dry and cool. Any slight friction, heat or damp skin could cause a blister which will definitely make you be uneasy in your outdoor sessions. DurabilityJungle boots, therefore, are, by definition, designed not to be entirely waterproof but rather water-resistant up to a point and then water-expelling while remaining breathable. The idea is that the design should be airy so that feet will dry faster while incorporating purge technology that gets rid of moisture. Original S.W.A.T. Metro Air Boot uses air technology to provide utmost comfort as well as cushioning for long hours on hard surfaces. It has been made of only non-metallic components and thus the reason as to why it is known to be the ultimate airport friendly law enforcement uniform boot. You can be certain of its durability thanks to its double stitched upper that has 3 ply bonded nylon thread.

a b c Risch, Erna, The Quartermaster Corps, Washington, DC: Office of the Chief of Military History, Dept. of the Army (1953), pp. 108–109The new M-1942 canvas-and-rubber jungle boots with Saran mesh insoles were tested by experimental Army units in jungle exercises in Panama, Venezuela, and other countries, where they were found to increase the flow of dry outside air to the insole and base of the foot, reducing blisters and tropical ulcers. [1] [3] The Saran ventilating mesh insole was also used in the M-1945 tropical combat boot. [1] [2] World War II [ edit ] Danner says that the boots run narrow and that men should size up by at least half a size or go with the next wider fit. Women should size down by 1.5-2 sizes.
