Bates Delta-8 Boots - Black

Black tactical boots engineered with advanced and proven technologies. The high upper combines premium natural leather with tough Ballistic Nylon, ensuring durability and resilience. This model meets the European standard EN ISO 20347, guaranteeing performance in demanding conditions.

The non-slip sole, resistant to both oils and acids, ensures stable footing in diverse terrains. It is equipped with a deep, self-cleaning tread featuring a ladder grip, which, together with ergonomic profiling, delivers outstanding traction on various surfaces.

Designed with slip-resistant materials, the sole passed the rigorous SATRA WTM 144 test. Additional reinforcements at the toe and heel provide effective protection against impacts, enhancing durability and safety.

These boots feature the innovative iCS insole (Individual Comfort System), which incorporates gel inserts in the forefoot and heel areas. This allows users to adjust the insole’s hardness, tailoring the boots to different terrain types. Thanks to the advanced Enforcer Series Ultra-Lites technology developed by Bates, each boot weighs just 703 grams, providing a lightweight yet robust design.

Each boot comes with seven pairs of reinforced lacing holes for secure fastening, as well as a side YKK zipper for quick donning and improved ventilation. The zippers are built for durability and ease of use.

Designed without any metal components, this model is ideal for use in environments such as airports or other areas where magnetic gates are present, offering convenience and compliance with security protocols.

Grain leather shoes require regular care to maintain their durability, flexibility and aesthetic appearance. It is crucial to take good care of the upper by cleaning it and using appropriate waterproofing and shoe maintenance products. Remember that the waterproofing of grain leather is different from the one used for nubuck or suede, because standard spray waterproofing products are poorly absorbed into its surface. Pastes, waxes, greases and creams are more effective, as they protect against moisture, nourish the leather, prevent it from drying out and cracking, and restore elasticity and color. Protect the inside with a shoe deodorizer to prevent unpleasant odors.
