For this price, the shoes are great – they’re light, although I get the impression that the foot tilts slightly inward. The hard sole transfers weight well from the heel to the toes. The sizing is accurate, 46 corresponds to 28.7 cm and fits well. The shoes probably won’t stretch out over time.
Mil-Tec Chimera Low Shoes Black
Lightweight, low-profile tactical shoes in Black color, designed for long-term use in moderate terrain. They are suitable as footwear for uniformed services, as well as versatile urban or outdoor shoes.
Breathable Dintex membrane
The shoes feature a semi-permeable Dintex membrane that provides effective protection against water ingress while allowing internal moisture to escape.
Durable nylon reinforced with polyurethane, antibacterial insole
The design of the shoes incorporates durable nylon reinforced with polyurethane, providing excellent breathability. User comfort is further enhanced by a gusseted tongue and soft Strobel padding, which cradles the foot within the shoe. Inside, an antibacterial EVA insole with memory foam effectively absorbs shocks while walking.
Self-cleaning Wolft Teeth tread, extra toe and heel protection
The anti-slip sole, featuring a profiled, self-cleaning Wolf Teeth tread, delivers excellent traction on diverse surfaces and offers stability and cushioning in challenging terrain. A TPU overlay incorporated into the rubber sole provides additional protection for the toes and heels.

The shoes feature a Speed Lace quick lacing system, and all seams are tape-sealed to enhance water resistance.

At this price, these are very good shoes. Perfect for everyday use, they perform well as long as you don’t use them in extreme conditions. Solid workmanship, they shouldn't disappoint. A product worth recommending.
-
Overall, the shoes are fine, but as others have said—at high temperatures, your feet sweat a lot. Additionally, I felt discomfort because my big toe (nail) was rubbing, which led to minor pain. Maybe it's worth choosing a bigger size, because the shoe isn't likely to stretch due to the toe reinforcement.
-
I used these shoes throughout the winter and a few times on warmer days. At 0°C and below, they perform excellently, but during warmer weather or when staying indoors for a long time, my feet start to sweat—which is typical for shoes with a membrane. The downside is that, despite the mention in the description, they do not have a quick-lacing system (I bought two pairs, and neither had it).
-
Honestly, for this price, these shoes are really great—they work perfectly outside at temperatures from -5 to 10°C, you barely feel them on your feet, the sole grips excellently (even on ice), and I walked in deep puddles several times and they didn't get wet inside. The only downside is that in closed rooms, they can cause your feet to sweat, but apart from that, at this price, I highly recommend them.
-
Very good shoes. I bought them for winter, for mild frost. They insulate heat well, your feet won’t freeze. On the outside, they hardly let in any water. They hold their shape and color well.
-
The shoes pleasantly surprised me with their quality—they look much better in real life than in the pictures. They are light, comfortable, and at the same time seem durable. Membrane test: after an hour in wet grass, my feet were dry. I recommend!
-
I had two pairs (one replaced under warranty)... The shoes are comfortable and look good, but calling them "armored" is a bit of an exaggeration. After about a year of intensive use, they crack in the same place, on the seam of the rubber toe. Despite everything, considering the price, I recommend them.
-
Light and comfortable shoes, well made. They hold the foot well, are stable on slippery surfaces, and have a grippy sole. The only downside—in my opinion, they're not suitable for very hot days.
-
I bought them for winter, for light frosts. They keep your feet warm, and they don’t get cold. On the outside, they hardly let any water in. The shoes are stiff and keep their color.
-
Before writing my review, I used these shoes for two months. After this time, I can say they are really great. Well-fitted, light and comfortable. The sole effectively absorbs rocks and unevenness—you don’t feel them underfoot. The material keeps your feet from sweating. I recommend them—this was a great choice.
-
The shoes are well made and do their job—my son has both the high and low versions, and all of them are comfortable and well-fitting. Worth their price, I recommend them to anyone considering buying.
-
The shoes fit the foot very well, they are light and comfortable. I bought them for everyday use. In the office, they're a bit too warm, although my feet aren't wet. Outside at +1°C in thin socks, they are still quite warm. Overall, I am satisfied; they are great for wearing outdoors in spring and autumn.
-
The shoes offer great value for the price. I can compare them to HAIX half boots with a Gore membrane, which are twice as expensive, and to similar HiTec models. The quality of workmanship is excellent. The membrane does its job—it keeps water out and provides ventilation, although it's not goretex-level, but such shoes cost twice as much. In my opinion, better than HiTecs with a membrane at this price. I understand that with exertion, you might feel like your feet are wet—sometimes I did feel that, but I never had wet socks. That feeling only occurred after long effort, but my feet were dry. The sole deserves high praise for very good grip—even on wet ice, these shoes grip better than other sports shoes.
-
Great shoes, solid to the touch, and they look very good. They fit snugly to the foot but do not squeeze. The insole has an anatomical shape. They are quite warm; at +7°C, they might even be too hot.
