5.11 Skyweight RapidDry boot review by Jim T:
I think these are a great lightweight boot for what I am using it for which is border security in the field.

I wear a U.S. 9.5 fit,and i have broad feet,so a 9.5 reg or D sizing is just right for me. So I would probably go with that.

My buddy ordered a pair and he thought they ran a little small for sizing but each persons foot dimensions are different so be aware.

It is so much lighter than what i expected and I really like the grip even if your going through a wet rocky area.

The 5.11 Skyweight RapidDry boots are great for movability,and quite breathable.

So Definately will recommend this model and brand to others as I will probably buy another pair if these ever wear out.
