Men's Bates Recondo Boots
Item #: 1495
To meet the demands of today’s evolving asymmetrical threats, Bates partnered with the United States Army Special Forces Command to develop the Recondo. Named for the Reconnaissance and Commando Training Course developed in the 1950s at Fort Campbell, the Recondo meets the need for a Berry Compliant jungle combat boot for today’s war fighters and peacekeepers. Comprised of durable Wolverine Warrior Leather and rugged nylon ripstop Cordura to ensure longevity in punishing tropical regions. Featuring a Vibram Mutant outsole with a customized rubber compound that is durable enough to withstand Special Operations Forces use in hot weather, temperate weather and mountainous operational environments. Bates has created the only boot specifically engineered for hot, wet and humid combat environments common in tropical regions.
Features of Men's Bates Recondo Boots
- Height: 8"
- Weight: 26. 60 oz. per boot
- Upper: Wolverine Warrior Leather and 500D Cordura
- Midsole: Polyurethane
- Outsole: Vibram Mutant
- Insole: Removable dual-density cushioned Soft toe
- Berry Compliant
- Proudly made in the USA
- Oil-resistant, stain-resistant and abrasion-resistant Wolverine Warrior Leather is treated with Scotchgard protector to create an invisible, stain-resistant barrier that improves durability without changing the breathability, color or texture of the leather
- Wolverine Warrior Leather is easy to clean and engineered to resist dirt, mud, motor oil, vehicle fluids, gasoline and other oil-based chemicals
- The tight, consistent nap of the Wolverine Warrior Leather can be cleaned with mild soap and water and brushed with a nap brush
- 500D Cordura is strong, abrasion-resistant and coated on the back side for water resistance
- Light, strong and comfortable ripstop nylon on the shaft and gusset is near infrared (NIR) making the boot less visible in low-light environments
- Performance nylon webbed collar provides increased comfort and flexibility
- Three eyelets and three speed lacers on each side align to reduce hot spots, blisters and other irritation while providing a customized fit
- Medial and lateral screened drainage vents give increased breathability and moisture management
- Direct-attach construction provides superior bonding between the upper and the outsole to increase the life of the sole system
- The design of the solid rubber Vibram Mutant outsole has a deeper, more aggressive lug depth for off-road traction, a multi-directional leading edged that enhances slip-resisting properties and a rounded heel for natural touch down
- Strategically placed, self-cleaning lugs mean traction and stability on any terrain
