Pentagon Achilles Tactical XTR 6" Boots - Black

The shoes are durable and well-made. They work well during long walks and do not cause foot fatigue. I wear them both every day and during hikes. They are waterproof and the sole grips the ground well.

I bought my first pair of these shoes in TAN color in January 2023 and they still look great. Now I decided on the black version. Overall, the footwear is exceptionally comfortable, sturdy, and provides warmth. Walking in them is pure pleasure. With proper care, the shoes last a very long time. I highly recommend them.

On the plus side – these shoes are well-made and, despite their fairly sturdy appearance in person, they're lightweight and don't tire your feet even during long walks. I left the textile material without waterproofing, but I protected the faux leather parts with good polish and they handled winter just fine – snow and slush are no problem (tested at the turn of 2025/26). I even stepped into a large puddle of thawed water and the shoes didn’t soak through. Huge plus for the sole – it’s really hard to slip on. Though you have to remember not to expect miracles on ice. On the downside – the lacing system. Instead of a hook, there’s just a hole, which makes it harder to lace quickly, especially when you’re in a hurry or in the dark – it can get frustrating. Another issue is sizing. I usually wear size 41, but I chose 42 to make room for thick winter socks – unfortunately, they turned out too small even with thin socks. Only size 43 was right. Maybe it's due to the rather narrow toe box, but my feet are pretty average. It's worth noting because the toe of the shoe is very stiff and won’t break in with use. Overall, I recommend these shoes – they work great both outdoors and for everyday city use. They're comfortable, weather-resistant, and so far haven’t gotten wet even once. They still look brand new since I bought them, just make sure to care for them regularly. They look great paired with cargo pants. For summer, it’s better to choose lighter colors.

The shoes look very aesthetically pleasing. Their light color matches perfectly, for example, with WZ93 pants. The size matches other shoes I own. They seem durable and made from high-quality materials. They are comfortable to walk in and provide good grip on wet or icy surfaces. I am very satisfied with the purchase and definitely recommend them to others.

These are very solid and durable tactical shoes made for demanding users. The materials used protect the foot well from injuries and water while also providing ventilation. The sole offers excellent grip on various surfaces and cushions uneven ground well. They work both in the mountains, for tactical operations, and for everyday use.

The shoes perform well in demanding terrain. I use them on forest trips, during off-road driving, and mountain hikes. They are comfortable and durable. After 30 km in the High Tatras, they were still like new. I recommend them.

The shoes are solidly made, provide comfort and stability, and perform very well in the field. They hold the foot well and have a durable sole with good grip. Unfortunately, they are not suitable for deep puddles, as they soak through quickly. The laces are a bit too long, so it’s worth tying them well so they don’t get in the way. I bought extra insoles because the originals weren’t comfortable for me and used waterproofing spray – with these extras, the shoes are very comfortable and your feet don’t get tired. I recommend them!

I’m satisfied with these shoes. In the mountains, they worked great for hiking on snow around zero degrees. Thanks to thick thermal socks, it was warm and dry. I covered over 35 km in two days and most importantly—didn’t get any blisters, even though I hadn’t had a chance to break them in before.

My first Achilles shoes had a very soft sole, a great option for flat terrain and dry climate. However, my feet would sweat quickly, and the shoe didn't handle moisture well—it doesn't let water through even from dew, though it dries quickly. The lacing system with hooks can be problematic; the laces would sometimes come off. I bought the Scorpions—they have a stiffer sole, so I’ll see how they perform in summer. Despite everything, I returned to the Achilles shoes because I like them. Good to know that size 44 fits just right, 45 is already too big. It's a shame they don’t have in-between sizes.

Very good shoes, I'm happy with the purchase; I've been using them for another season. In the forest and on stones, they provide comfort, protect against moisture. They also work well on icy paths. Perfect for long routes in colder days. Highly recommend.

I recommend them to anyone going for marches on colder days – the interior is very comfortable, the shoes are warm and have good waterproofing. The materials have been chosen so that the footwear lasts for a long time.

I am satisfied with the purchase – I have been using them intensely for two months, both in hot weather and now in the cold. They are very comfortable and fit my feet well. I recommend them!

Very good and comfortable shoes – they are light, airy, and do not squeeze the foot. Feet do not sweat. Fast delivery, in 7 days. I took advantage of a promotion, so the price was good. I recommend them in this price range.

The shoes are very comfortable. After a few days, they adapted nicely to my foot. The only downside is the last “eyelet” for the laces at the very top, which means you have to thread the lace each time, whereas lower down there is a hook. This could be improved. Easy to clean. Overall, I recommend, especially for this price.

The shoes survived a week in the Bieszczady in November—they were soaked in mud, water, and heavily used in difficult mountain terrain. Not once did they get wet, my feet stayed dry and warm the whole time (with the right socks). After cleaning, they look almost like new. They are spacious enough to fit orthopedic insoles. Highly recommended.
