Smith & Wesson Men's Breach 2 Military and Tactical Boot

Purchased these for my son, who is a firefighter, but had to return them since his job provided specific boots. That said, these were an excellent value—comfortable, well-made, not too heavy, and waterproof. They also look great. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing a solid pair of tactical boots!

Glad I tried these! I was looking for a new pair of boots because I work in a tough feild and on my feet all day. Need something that is both comfortable and waterproof. I go thru a fair amount of boots in my job and just planned on buying one of my regular go-to boots when I stumbled on this Smith & Wesson pair on Amazon. I didn’t even realize there were Smith & Wesson boots out there. I’ve been a long standing fan of their guns and the price was right, so I thought, why not? Decided to give em a try. Glad I did. I can’t believe the price because they are really comfortable and they have been keeping my feet 100% dry all day. I can tell you not all waterproof boots keep your feet dry! These seem to be good quality like the other boots I buy but a lot cheaper price than those. Got them delivered quickly, no problems there. I like the Smith logo on the boot heel also. Nice touch. If you like the brand of guns like I do, you should check these boots out. I would definitely buy them again. I will see how well they hold up over time, but I think they will be good for everyday use. So far, they have been great. I would recommend them to anyone working on their feet all day and in harsh conditions like I often do. I think I found my new go-to boot. Now I should probably should go get me another M&P to match!

I learned long ago not to expect the same quality in non-firearm products with a firearm manufacturer's name on it. I bought these for summer construction work to take the place of my 10" Carolina logger heels, which I love but are hard on my knees if I have to walk a lot.Out of the box, my first impression was good. Looks well constructed and has an overall good look to them. After that, it was down hill. I'm 6'3, 190lbs, 10.5 boot. Not exactly tree trunks for legs. I had to work to get my foot in the boot using the zippers. The gusset is there to aid in waterproofing, I'm sure, but it really limits the ability to slide them on. The ankle to mid lace is pretty "generous" to help you get in them, but once you're in, that area is too loose for me. Tying the laces tighter makes entry with the zipper impossible for me. I found a (not so) happy medium for now.I have pretty decent arches, but the soles of these, while padded, are as flat as a piece of plywood. I bought insoles and it helped not only with arch support but also with overall fit.The last thing I was less than impressed with the tread. While good in dirt, rocks, etc, I about ate it big time on wet smooth concrete. I'm sure any oily surface would be interesting.The good. They're pretty light. With the insoles, I feel good after a full day walking. They're cool. My feet dont get hot. The shank puts up with shovel work well. They're waterproof enough that morning dew in the grass hasn't gotten through yet. They do seem pretty well made with decent materials.With the exception of the waterproof aspect, i liked my last pair of cheap LA Police Gear side zips. They were half the price.Probably wont buy againUPDATE:After a year and a couple months of daily 8 hr+ wear, theyre holding up really well. One of the lugs tore off the bottom while climbing in a piece of equipment and theres a small tear on the right one where it creases when the toe flexes. Thats it. Im adding a star. Im gonna retire them from daily use when the snow flies, but will keep them around for around the farm use.

I’m a new home electrician, I purchased these boots back in February of this year and I’ve waited to post a review so that I can really put these boots to the test to see how the heck they hold up. And I’ve gotta say, best damn boots I’ve ever owned. I’ve worked 16 hour days, I’ve worked in the mud, I’ve worked on slippery wet roofs on rainy days and hot blistering roofs on hot days, I’ve stepped on nails, and I’ve had to walk through narrow rafters on open ceilings, etc etc the list goes on but you get the idea.My feet don’t get tired, I’ve never slipped, my feet don’t burn up, I take my boots off at the end of the day and my socks are just as clean as when I put them on, no dust or dirt or water get on my socks.Plus having them go up past my ankles has saved me multiple times from rolling my ankles when stepping off ladders.This is an amazing product and they have a great look.Buy them and put them through the ringer. I guarantee you’ll love them.

Amazing boot. Bought for heavy use work boots and so far have held up amazingly. Bottom sole is tough and resists wear, tho sides are soft which can get nicked by use but overall keeps weight down. Solid internal sole keep feet comfortable. Overall weight is low which keeps boot fatigue at bay. Waterproof from 2-3 lace from the bottom while zipper is waterproof up to the top. Great buy would recommend to anyone searching for a reliable boot.

I don't have anything negative to say about these boots. They broke in nicely and have been the most comfortable boots I've owned. I have worn Magnum, Red Wing, Bates and probably some other Walmart brand. They were all "stiff". I will try to show internal wear in the photos. The internal shot shows where my foot rubbed the back of the boot. Other shots are front, back and side.

Great boots, great price. Thanks

Beware: these aren't the same boots as before. They're smaller too. Unfortunately I have to return them and have to start all over looking for a good brand of boots that fit.The old boots were perfect but trying these on, even thought they're technically the same size, these would kill my feet.
