Danner Tachyon 8-Inch Work Boot Review
I will begin by saying I really like these boots. They are lightweight, and man made so they are literally machine washable. The Danner Tachyon is light and comfortable like the Nikes and Rocky C4T, but unlike those, you DO NOT feel rocks poking your feet.
The Danner Men’s Tachyon 8” Duty Boots are proudly made in the USA, featuring an 8-inch shaft height and a durable rubber sole for reliable traction. Crafted with polyurethane (PU) for the outer material, these boots are built to withstand tough conditions.
Their special hardware enables quick and secure tightening from toe to top with a single pull, ensuring a snug fit. To enhance longevity, a scuff-proof toe cap has been added to protect the area most prone to wear. Moreover, the polyurethane footbed offers exceptional shock absorption, along with improved air circulation thanks to its open cell construction, keeping feet comfortable during long shifts.

Nike Special Field Boot Review
A buddy of mine got a pair of these and he really liked them so I figured I would get a pair. So far I am really liking them as they are light weight and perfect for my work where I am on my feet all day. Unless I have to wear a steel toe boot (like the guys in the supply warehouse) I will keep wearing these as they remind me of high top sneakers as they have a lot of cushion.
On the base I have to pull guard duty on rotation and these are good for foot patrol and hiking along the perimeter of the base. I had a pair of bates boots but I think I like these better. I have had mine for about 4 months now and they are turning out to be durable. The only thing I dont like is that they dont have a side zipper and they can be slippery on wet concrete and tile. I think i have found my go-to shoe for around the base and on patrol.
