Tested by Special Forces in cities, mountains, jungles and deserts, the world over.
Inspired by Vietnam-era Jungle Boots worn by MACV-SOG and other Special Forces units in the 60's. Modernized to today’s all-terrain requirements of traveling, training, rucking - and assaulting.
NO BREAK-IN TIME
They're ready when you are, right out of the box.
REAR FINGER LOOP
A finger loop was added to the rear of the boot so you can easily pull your Travelers on and off.
PREMIUM UPPER MATERIALS
Hard wearing full-grain Challenge Leather™ that only gets better with time and use. We changed up the sewing on the exterior of the Travelers to give it that classier look. Show up in a suit, tie, and your MACV-1 Travelers and still be ready to take on a Challenge Event.
WATER-RESISTANT
Our MACV series is proudly NOT waterproof, but is water-resistant. The entire upper is built out of our proven Challenge Leather, which is water-resistant. Additionally, we added gussests to the tongue of the boot to help prevent water from coming through the front and removed the drain holes to prevent water from coming in on the bottom.
MOLDED TOE CAP
The molded toe cap not only allows you to buff and shine the toe of your boots, but it helps to keep the shape of your boots. Plus it looks good, of course.
13MM HEEL-TO-TOE DROP
The ideal heel-to-toe drop for rucking and walking for long distances. 13mm offset reduces the strain on your achilles (and by proxy your ankle, knees, and hips) and helps to accommodate a natural gait in an unnatural world of asphalt and man-made surfaces.
WIDE TOE BOX
Generous forefoot area lets your toes breathe. Over time and distance during any activity including rucking or traveling, your feet will swell. This extra space reduces the friction that can occur if your feet rub against the insides of your boot.
SUEDE + INJECTION MOLDED HEEL COUNTER
Premium suede wraps a supportive, injection molded plastic heel counter. This combo stabilizes your heel as the suede leather prevents the kind of friction that causes hotspots and blisters.
3MM SPEED LACES
Speed laces are 3mm as opposed to standard 5mm. Debris and mud doesn't collect on the 3mm laces like it does on the 5mm, the 3mm rinse off and dry faster, and they're faster to tie because there's less bulk.
Special Forces Roots
Ready When You Are.
The inspiration for the MACV series was the most beloved boot in Army Special Forces history, the Vietnam-era Jungle Boot, worn by MACV-SOG and other Special Forces combat units. In the military, the push is always to sharpen the tip of the spear, and these boots were designed with that same principle in mind.
Modernized to today’s all-terrain requirements of traveling, training, rucking - and assaulting, MACV-2™ is ready when you are.
