Agile and waterproof action boots from Haix. These really get you going, or also keep you standing in place, if you so wish.
One would always hope to be more of an athletic type, but then again, that would require an athletic lifestyle. A solid athletic foundation must be built from the ground up, and therefore, waste no more time, and begin your lifestyle change today by getting the Haix Black Eagle Athletic 2.1 GTX boots!
Features
The Haix Black Eagle Athletic 2.1 GTX boots are light and agile to maximize your dynamic capabilities in direct action missions in urban environments and beyond. The waterproof Gore-Tex membrane will keep your feet dry while your team advances through water-dripping tunnel systems under the city. While on the move, the Haix Climate System recycles air through the boot and removes moisture. This keeps your feet cooler when it’s hot, and warmer when it’s cold. Two-zoned lacing ensures a tight fit, and these Haix boots have additional protection for your ankles and toes.
- Upper material microfiber/textile
- Waterproof Gore-Tex membrane
- Rubber on the ankle and toes for added protection and durability
- Two-zoned lacing for optimal fit
- Shock-resistant, anti-static, and anti-slip sole
- Color black
- Weight per shoe 560 g / 1.2 lbs (size UK 9 / EU 43)
- Made in Europe
Good boots are a mission critical item, so do yourself a favor, and set your feet up for victory!
Shoe care
These Haix boots have a waterproof membrane and a textile upper. We recommend using shoe care products intended for textile shoes with a membrane. Read more about shoe care in our dedicated article.
Warranty
All HAIX footwear are covered by a one-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Ordinary wear is not covered. We do not handle international warranties or warranties for HAIX footwear that's not bought from us.
Size info
First the British size followed by a comparable EU size. These Haix boots have two-zone lacing, so they also accommodate people with wider insteps.
To convert UK sizes to US Men's sizes, just add one whole size e.g. a British 8.5 is an American 9.5.
User experiences
I’ve trained with these boots for a year now, in varying environments: Wilderness, coastal, indoor and urban. Driving cars and riding motorcycles.
These are surely the most comfortable and agile boots I’ve ever worn. They almost feel like sneakers, whilst still providing some protection and support. Wearing them in was also quick and painless.
Pros:
- Comfortable, light and agile.
- For combat boots, they are breathable and quick to dry. There is even some hope of getting these dry during a mission.
- Operating a car and motorcycle were surprisingly comfortable, as far as boots go. A particularly useful feature for any professional who operates from a vehicle: LEO’s, EMT’s, etc.
Cons:
- These aren’t the most supportive boots. If you know that you need something particularly stiff, these aren’t the ones you’re looking for.
- Nimble shoes aren’t generally known for their durability. That being said, these have served me well for a year's worth of exercises and training, without any signs of slowing down.
In short: A light everyday boot, that can outperform most sneakers.
Should I get them with a waterproof membrane?
A membrane model (GTX) will likely be your safest bet for northern environments with reasonable moisture that aren’t particularly hot. It will breathe a little bit less, and it will take a little bit longer to dry, but it will stop outside moisture from getting your socks wet.
A non-membrane model will serve you best if you're indoors or in a dry environment. Also, any particularly wet environment. If you’re ever convinced that your feet will get wet anyway, regardless of a membrane, you might as well maximize breathability and drying-time. Seals, Marines and Frogmen take note.

Nyt näitä kalvokenkiä testanneena tuotetyytyväisyys vain syveni. Ulkoilureitille sattui tänään suon ylitys vaan sepä ei menoa haitannut. Matka jatkui suon jälkeenkin kuivin sukin, vaikka vesi ylsi jo yli alimpien nauhojen. 6/5
