  Reviewer: Anthony

  If I order again I would get the wide width

- Beautiful and sturdy boots!
  Reviewer: AMS
  
  12/1/2018
  
  I purchased these boots for my son so he can get to and wait at the bus stop without wondering whether his feet will be wet/uncomfortable at school all day. They are beautifully crafted and he said they are very comfortable. Also, I'm a first time shopper with this site and had a great experience. The transaction was seamless.

  Reviewer: James Parke
  
  10/26/2018
  
  I ordered based on reviews, price and size availability. I use “w” width. These shoes are stiff when new but in no time almost forgot they were new. Sole is comfortable. Footing is good too. For my work wish toes were better covered. Recommen you get these.

- I love them
  Reviewer: Matthew

  Reviewer: David Abbott
  
  10/19/2018
  
  I had ordered composite toe boots These boots were not composite toes. They're not the worst boots I've ever owned but they're not the best. They have room in them but they're missing a little bit more comfort. Overall I would not buy Bates boots let alone this particular type.
- Response from TacticalGear.com
  
  We're sorry to hear this wasn't what you were expecting! This is not the composite toe version of this boot, but if you contact our Customer Relations team, they'd be happy to help with a return and finding a composite toe boot.

  True to size ,no break in,good out of the box

- Exceptional boot
  Reviewer: Ralph Mazzella
  
  9/3/2018
  
  I'm an AC contractor, so I need a boot that is lightweight, extremely durable and very comfortable. This is what this Boot have to offer. Plus it has a long life to boot.

- Good shoe
  Reviewer: Steve
  
  9/2/2018
  
  Very comfortable and easily broken in. This was my previous shoe also. Very happy.

- I wore them for three days and they are junk!
  Reviewer: Richard Carine
  
  8/28/2018
  
  The sloes at the ball of your feet have no cushioning. It was OK the first day and got worse breaking down. After my third shift in these boots they are done! The worst boot and waste of money I have ever spent. The brand name used to be of quality, but now are just like the rest of the overseas made boots. I wore Bates boots in the early part of my 34 years in Law Enforcement, and have seen this trend evolve. I am back in my Corcoran U.S. made boots and my feet are very happy again.
- Response from TacticalGear.com
  
  We're sorry to hear these boots were uncomfortable. Please contact our Customer Relations team and they'd be happy to recommend more durable boots.

- Very satisfied
  Reviewer: Ken Schmalzer

  Reviewer: Thomas Defina
  
  8/19/2018
  
  There's no padding towards the back of the heel and the top of the shoe at your ankle. The shoe was very uncomfortable.
- Response from TacticalGear.com
  
  Thanks for the feedback! We're sorry to hear that this was the case for you, if you reach out to our Customer Relations team, they'd be glad to recommend a different pair of boots that better fit your needs!

- Great Boot
  Reviewer: Joe Acevedo
  
  6/24/2018
  
  I'm on my feet all day at work on asphalt and concrete. These boots perform great, they are not construction boots, but they sure feel like it without all of the extra weight. I bought two pairs and I'm glad I did.

- Same reliable fit
  Reviewer: Alfonso Tobias
  
  6/15/2018
  
  Have worn these before and they still fit the same as before. Much more comfortable than the composite toe models, those were a lot stiffer than these. My only issue with them is that they seem hotter than before. My feet were a lot more uncomfortable in the hot weather we have here in South Texas. Other than that, it’s the same reliable fit as my previous pairs.

- not as reviewed
  Reviewer: LT
  
  6/11/2018

  Hey LT, we're very sorry the boots didn't fit as expected. If you need help with a return and/or picking the best fitting boot, please, reach out to our knowledgeable Customer Relations team! We'd be more than happy to help!

  Reviewer: Neil O.
  
  5/27/2018
  
  I only wish they had more padding between the bottom of my foot and the sole, but they are easy to get on and off. I think these are goons do the job for me

  Reviewer: C.B.
  
  5/26/2018

  Bates are my "go to" boot and this pair did not disappoint me. No "break-in" time just slip them on and go. I'm on my feet for 8 hours plus and my feet are not fatigued at the end of the day. Dollar for dollar they are a better value than some of the higher end "wing" boots.

- Great lightweight boot for correctional facility

  Reviewer: Chris Petry

  I have buying this same Bates 5" Tactical Sport Boot for 10 years. I have been in the construction industry for 25 years and this boot is the only one that tolerates the abuse of all weather, mud, concrete, paint, drywall mud and the list goes on. I can get 12 to 18 months out of a $62.00 boot. That's awesome. Thanks for a great product.

- Great boot and price
  Reviewer: Dave
  
  2/27/2018
  
  Bought this for a friend who had trouble finding this boot. He tried various other brands and found them to be very uncomfortable. He had this boot in the past and loves them.

  Reviewer: Tewa Durr
  
  11/9/2017
  
  Was very excited about these boots until I tried them on. They are very narrow and small. Felt like baby boots. I've had other bates boots and loved them, maybe that's why these are so cheap. I've bought multiple boots from this website and this was the first problem I've encountered.

  10/21/2017
  
  I'm hard on boots at work and have blown out two pair of Magnums in the past in less than 9 months and came across these. Tried them out because I have always heard good things about bates and I'm not a big fan of the 8" boots (just preference) Have had this pair for 2 years and they've been great! Had to add some insoles at about a year but in all that would be the only complaint. They are light weight and comfortable.

- Half decent
  Reviewer: ERIC BALDWIN
  
  10/3/2017
  
  Boots are slightly bigger than usual and there's very little ankle support.

  I've been wearing the 5' Bates lace ups for over a decade. They're great, they last almost a year and the price is pretty decent. I also wear prescription orthotics and these are one of the few duty boots that seem to work with them. I hope they are not discontinued before I retire in 6 years!

  Lightweight, Good traction. We will see how they hold up. They are comfortable. Shoe laces are cheap but will replace anyway. Maybe some Para-cord Laces...

- Pleasantly surprised!

  Right out of the box to a 2 mile walk and just as comfortable as bedroom slippers. Both support and comfort in one. Will recommend for sure!

  Still wearing my 1st pair for 3 years so far. Very comfortable, holds up against our NJ elements. Running, walking standing no problems. I had to buy a second pair to keep on hand. Very Happy

  There is a break in period be warned! Super uncomfortable compared to other brands I've worn timberland Carolina etc. After a week or so they started to feel more comfortable. For the price they are worth it and boot does run a size big so get a size smaller then normal. I will wear them till they're worn but I am going back to Carolina/Tims after these the extra price is worth it.

- Good overall boot

  This boot was a comfortable fit right of the box. Sturdy construction but still very comfortable.

- My 3rd pair
  Reviewer: Luke

  Years ago, while still in the moving business full time and on my feet heavy lifting daily, I bought my 1st pair. They were basically my daily footwear in all conditions, year-round, 4 seasons for at least 3 years, and walked in over 15 states doing work. I even handed that pair down to a son who wore them for a year or so after ,e. Then my second pair lasted just like the first. I just got my third pair yesterday, about 8 years down the line from my first buy. I know boots. This model, is in my opinion, the best all-around boot available for the money (or even a bit more), period. I've worn many brands and models over the years, but this boot has become my go-to. Expect a break-in period, and eventually to replace the insoles with other good or better than original. But, the boots will give you more wear and comfort than your money's worth. Cheers, Luke

- Very nice boot!

  I am extraordinarily hard on shoes, am prone to planter fasciitis, and heavy. These boots are the best pair of shoes I have ever owned. Not only are they comfortable for my heavy frame but they last.....

  This is the second pair of Bates 5" Boots I have purchased. The first pair are still going strong, but I wanted another pair for dress casual.

- Bates went from high quality to China Crap.
  Reviewer: Bob

  Years back I would wear the boots till the soles had no more tread delivering mail. They lasted over a year walking through everything! Now they will not last a week. The soles (made in China) come unglued! They fall apart. Bates must be making a lot of profit off the lower quality boots they now sell!

  I bought this pair of boots to wear while riding my motorcycle. They are extremely light and comfortable. I now wear them every day for about 10 hours. I'm about to purchase another pair to have ready for when these boots wear out which, currently, they show no signs of happening.

- Excellent

  First day outta the box-no break-in needed, phenomenally comfortable. On my feet 12 hrs. a day, lovin' these babies

- Not for heavy duty use
  Reviewer: undead

  very comfortable, light weight, breathable, good traction and they look good. But after only three weeks of use the soles started coming unglued from the leather. I was wearing them 5 days a week for 9 hrs a day. This was the first pair of bates and last. I've owned a few pair of magnum brand boots and they lasted about a year before they started coming unglued. To me this is reasonable but three weeks is not. I called military boots about the issues and had no problems getting my money back. The customer service rep was very friendly and helpful. They contacted bates about the issue and they sent a return lable. If you don't plan on using these boots for heavy use then they are great but otherwise look for something else.

- Comfort

  Reviewer: Steven

  I have been wearing these boots for several years now. I work in the petroleum industry and they hold up well to everything I expose them to. I'm in them 10-14 hours a day. I wear them to hike in on the weekends and cover very rugged terrain with no mentionable foot fatigue. Traction is excellent in snow, mud, sand, rock, etc. Best buy for the $$$ that I have seen.

- getting another pair///

  light, comfortable, durable...I've been wearing mine constantly for 6 years. Utterly worn out, but considering my average pair of boots\shoes last 18 months, these are doing just fine. I will be getting another pair soon.
