This was truly a great purchase – Bennon shoes are of excellent quality! They are very comfortable, lightweight, and despite lacking the Hydroguard membrane, the large amount of leather means they hardly let any water in. It's also worth highlighting the use of Vibram and Cordura materials, which is an added advantage. The sizing is perfect. All in all, these shoes are definitely worth their price and I can sincerely recommend them!
Bennon Panther XTR O2 Low Tactical Boots - Black
High-quality tactical boots made of a combination of genuine leather and Cordura fabric. Ideal for uniformed services such as the army, police or border guards, as well as versatile footwear for the city or outdoor expeditions.
Full-grain cowhide, durable Cordura, Regi-Tex membrane
Full-grain cowhide and durable Cordura are used in production, which ensures high durability and excellent ventilation. The inside of the shoe is equipped with a Regi-Tex membrane, which effectively wicks away moisture and protects against water ingress.
The upper has a protective rubber toe cap to protect the toes from injury. There is a special pocket on the tongue for hiding the laces, which prevents them from untying accidentally.
Vibram 187C outsole
The deep tread rubber sole Vibram 187C guarantees excellent grip on various surfaces. It is resistant to high and low temperatures as well as contact with petroleum substances.
Absorba XTR insole with activated carbon
The anatomically shaped insole Absorba XTR ensures that the foot is optimally positioned in the shoe. The use of active carbon reduces the growth of bacteria and prevents unpleasant odours. Additional cushioning zones in the heel area minimise shock impacts, thus increasing comfort during dynamic movement.

I bought the shoes in size 43, which I wear every day, but they turned out to be too big. I recommend future buyers to carefully consider the size they choose, as the sizing seems to run large.
-
The shoes are of excellent quality. Their workmanship gives the impression of being durable, so they may last a long time. At first they were a bit tight, especially in the upper part of the foot, but after some time they became comfortable. I hope to use them for several years.
-
I used the shoes for three months. After that time, the sole began to come off, so I returned them to the shop and received a refund. The shoes themselves were comfortable, but they severely restricted breathability – they get very hot. Moisture wicking could be much better.
-
I've been using these shoes for about a year, mainly in the forest and at the shooting range, as that's what I bought them for. They're comfortable, provide good ankle support and are quite warm – even in frost, you don't feel cold coming from the sole. They also look elegant. It's worth having good socks too, because with worse ones, it wouldn't be as warm. The sizing is standard – I wear 43 and that's what I ordered, they fit perfectly. Highly recommended.
-
The shoes are exceptionally comfortable and very lightweight. Even after 12 hours of walking on hard surfaces, I don't feel tired, my feet don't hurt, and my knees don't creak. The first pair came apart a bit, but the exchange process was smooth.
-
I chose the shoes according to the size chart. They are comfortable, you can wear them all day without discomfort. I bought them for winter, and they proved themselves during the first use; no need to break them in. They protect effectively against water.
-
The shoes are extremely comfortable, but after eight months of use, the glue at the junction between the leather and the toe cap gave way, which made the shoes lose their waterproofness and start to let water in.
-
This is the next pair from this brand that I've bought. Walking in them feels like slippers – they are very comfortable. After a whole day of use, my feet hardly sweat at all. Besides that, the shoes are surprisingly light for this type, and beautifully shaped. The sole works well on sand, stones, concrete, and asphalt. They're not the cheapest, but the craftsmanship and finish are faultless. To sum up – their price matches their quality.
-
At first, the shoes were a bit tight and seemed uncomfortable, I thought they would go unused. However, after breaking them in I realised they are of good quality. In my opinion, the lace pocket isn't a great solution.
-
I've had the shoes for over half a year now, and they've performed well both in heat over 30 degrees and in cold below -20. With the right socks, my feet were neither hot nor cold. I use them for work and they are much more comfortable than the standard issue footwear. The advantages are excellent quality leather, which doesn't crack and fits well, nothing chafes, and the sole does not slip on oil or ice. They also look good. The downside is that bits of rubber have started coming off the sole, but for now it's not a problem. Overall, I recommend them.
-
The workmanship quality is very poor. This is already the second pair of the same model – the first time the sole started to come off after four months, and with the second purchase the same issue appeared after a few months. The shoes themselves are comfortable, but because of the sole quality I do not recommend this model.
-
After a year, the shoes are still very comfortable and warm, but I have already had to repair them twice due to the toes and the back of the sole coming unstuck in one shoe. I use them mainly in meadows and forests, in different temperatures, and I'd rate the usage intensity at 6/10. If the problem with parts coming off was resolved, they'd be great. At the moment I'd choose a different model because of the durability issue, though maybe I just got unlucky with my pairs. Perhaps the next version will be better.
-
The shoes are truly outstanding. Very comfortable, no need to break them in, they're ready for outdoor use straight away. They effectively protect against water – they held up even during a downpour and wading through a bog up to mid-calf, my feet stayed dry.
-
At first, the shoes seemed amazing, but after about three weeks I noticed they don't let any air through – feet sweat so much that it felt as if they were getting wet. I am now considering making a complaint, as this is a big issue.
