Bates Rush Shield Mid Coyote Waterproof Tactical Boot

The Bates Rush Shield Mid in coyote is a lightweight and comfortable tactical athletic boot, with the added benefit of elemental protection in the form of waterproofing. The Rush Shield Mid is built on a full running shoe last with 4mm of heel to toe drop, which refers to the difference in height between the front and back of the boot. Since the amount of drop featured on this boot is considered a low drop athletic fit, it promotes more fluid foot movement and precise heel strikes which serve to help reduce the risk of injury when training or running ops. Unlike minimalist shoes, the Rush Shield provides substantial cushioning and rebound via shock-absorbing Strobel foam construction, molded full-length arch support, molded EVA footbed, and dynamic EVA wedge midsole.

Compared to many other tactical boots out there, the Rush Shield offers exceptional support and stability due to its highly athletic design. For instance, the base of the boot is wider, which means that your weight is more evenly distributed across a wider distance with every footfall. This increased friction helps to reduce slip and tilt that could cause you lose your balance and fall. Additionally, the molded EVA footbed and full-length arch support ensure that your feet remain securely positioned and supported inside the boot, meaning that your ankles, legs and back don't have to pick up the slack. The rubber outsole also features directional lugs which further serve to keep you vertical when trekking over tough terrain.

The upper of the Bates Rush Shield Mid is comprised of breathable coyote mesh and durable leather for comfort, durability and military style. Furthermore, the mesh is supplemented by a moisture wicking lining which work in tandem to provide maximum ventilation to keep you cool in hot weather. Wet or rainy conditions on the ground are also not a problem for these tactical boots, thanks to a Bates DRYGuard waterproofing system that locks out liquids while allowing moisture to escape.
