Ordered this as the Skyweight model for my size was out of stock. I was a bit disappointed as the Skyweight’s design is nicer to me.
Performance wise, this model has not let me down. I wear it as my everyday and all purpose footwear.
It is a blessing to have this piece of footwear in tropical and humid weather.

Boots are light weight, comfortable, easy to lace and look smart without being over the top.

Order arrived on time. Fit is very good. Looking forward to putting the boot to the test in our bushland environment.

This is my second set of 5.11 8" Taclite boots and they are great. My first set lasted 18 months of everyday use with weeks of field exercises as well. The only reason I got new one is because I wore the sole out.

Bought these as a replacement to my trusted Desert Boots which became worn out again, so decide to change brand. Already being a user of 5.11 products. I purchase a pair of their Desert Boots. Boy top product and like wearing a pair of trainers. They have excellent grip in wet conditions unlike other makes on the market. For which is good to know when moving quickly, that they are not going to slip away from under you. My boots get some punishment throughout their life and these look up to the job. My colleagues are showing an interest in these now too. The lacing isn't speedy, but once you are tired in they feel apart of you.
So if you want a Tactical Tactile pair of boots, give them a go and you want be let down.

I have had 3 pairs of these boots over the last 6 years for work and wear them 16hrs a day every day. I can't fault them for durability and comfort. Not waterproof in the slightest but quick enough to dry out with rags inside. Will never wear anything else.

I love these boots. I have barely taken them off since I bought them.
The quality of manufacture is fantastic very unlikely for anything coming apart or ripping off these boots.
They fit fantastically, not moving around at all, good arch support.
Lacing takes seconds as the eyelets grip the laces, meaning you don't have to repeatedly pull at the laces to maintain tension.
Best of all is just how comfortable they are.

These boots are great, i use them for general work, office work and out in the field. Since i purchased the boots they have been in field action a couple of times.
Really good buy

Very comfy straight out of the box, only downside is they aren't fully waterproof.

Purchased these for use out in Afghanistan after my Converse boots had seen better days, (lasted around 8 months of 16hrs a day abuse). These 5.11 boots have lasted no more than 2 months and now have holes either side of the vertical stitches on the heel of the boot where it flexes for the price i expected these to last much longer !
I will say the are extremely comfortable out of the box but only lasting two months before they fall apart i wouldn't bother !

Very comfy, my feet always hurt if i'm on them too long but these seem to have stopped it.
it would be good if they were water proof too

Great boots. Light. Comfortable. Little bit cumbersome to drive in and can stain easily but that's to be expected and stops that "brand new look" anyway

Got these boots for Airsoft. They are really good. The build quality is high and they fit comfortably straight from the box. They have less padding inside than I was expecting and they are paler, more of a tan colour than coyote brown. Apparat from those
