Reviews

Great boots and very comfortable

"Great boots and very comfortable"

— William B. (5/5)

Didn't Last Two Months

"After less than two months of wear, the heel came loose between the inner liner and the outside of the boot. Of course, this is sewn in so there is no way to fix it in a manner that makes the boot tolerable to wear. So, I have wasted a significant amount of my uniform allowance and get the privilege of purchasing boots of a different brand, out of pocket. Very, very poor quality."

— Ashley (1/5)

"Great boot, fits well and comfortable"

— Larry B. (5/5)

Nice boots but not easy on or off

"These boots fit well but the zipper is too short to allow enough leeway to get on and off easily. Had to partially unlace to get on or off. This defeats whole purpose of zip. I think a design flaw. I invite Propper to try this and see themselves. Zipper should reach right down to above the sole. Returned boots for refund."

— Scott S. (2/5)

Proper Series 100 6” Waterproof Side Zip Boot

"They have to be the narrowest boots for being a wide boot I have ever owned. They fit tight and are not comfortable at all. I would not buy them again."

— David H. (3/5)

Great boot, with one drawback

"Great quality boot - comfortable materials, perfect fit, runs true to size, looks mil-spec stylish right down to the webbing and choice of laces. The deal-breaker: the side zipper does not go low enough to allow quick removal, and putting them back on without loosening the laces is impossible. This defeats the purpose. Even pulling them off is a bit of a struggle, but at least manageable if you need to remove them somewhat quickly. If the zipper is a secondary importance to you, absolutely buy yourself a pair. For me it was primary, so I'm returning mine. Which is unfortunate, because I really do like them otherwise. That being said, I'm not sure I'll have any luck finding any 6" boot that has a zipper feature. Quick searches so far have turned up nothing."

Boots

"Fit true to size, I wear a 9 in women’s I got a 7 1/2 in men’s. Love that they have a side zipper so you don’t have to untie them every time. Definitely high-quality and it’s gonna last a while. But definitely recommend these boots to anyone."

— Emi O. (5/5)

Q&A

Are they non metallic?
These boots feature metal eyelets for the laces, so they are not considered completely non-metallic.
Do these 6”, series 100 come in desert tan or coyote swede, without the side zipper, size 8.5M? If so, I’ll buy two pairs.
The 6" series 100 boot is only offered in black with the side zip. We do not currently carry them in coyote.
Are these suitable for hiking? Or are there better options?
These are designed for tactical and military use for different terrains and activities. Although they are not made specifically for hiking, their intended use does align with it and can be used to hike.
Are the boots true to size or should you size 1/2 down or up? Thanks
The boots are made to US sizing. That in mind, the design of the boot and how it fits your foot could determine if you need to go up or down a size. Order the size you believe you need. If it doesn't fit, we offer free returns.
Do these boots have any type of shank?
There is a composite shank. The 4th picture above shows the shank.
