Review for model:

I would like to change my opinion. The skin at the bends at the base of the toes cracked after just six months, even though the shoes were rarely used and never came into contact with water. I am disappointed! These were my favorite summer shoes.

I have been using the shoes since February this year. Every day for about 3 hours (forest walks with a pointer). Overall, the quality compared to the price is very poor. I expected more based on the reviews and description. Appearance, comfort, and sizing are a plus. Laces were frayed after a month. The sole is basically worn out already, the "leather" cracked everywhere it could – and they were well taken care of, cleaned, impregnated, etc. In my opinion, they are good for only one season. I don't know if they'll last until February :/

They look nice, the sole is good because nothing sticks except for sand and other small bits. However, the problem lies in the drainage holes which are supposed to prevent water from flooding in.

What more can I say? My favorite summer shoes. Light, comfortable, durable, and they look good on the feet. This is probably my third pair? No, it’s the fourth, continuously for 20 years.

The previous Panamas I had (also from Mil-Tec) served me daily for 5 years (and I didn’t spare them) – I used them for school, airsoft games, work, and they were solid shoes, the best at this price. However, what Mil-Tec is releasing now, the newer version of the shoes with "waterproof leather," cracked after 2 months of light use (just regular walks) and even started to come unglued. I do not recommend them, which is a pity because Mil-Tec used to make really good shoes and for a good price. On a scale from 0/10, it’s 3/10 if you want stiff, massive sneakers.

Nice shoes, but unfortunately they are far from the previous edition. I put on the previous ones and they were immediately "ready"; unfortunately, the current production is focused on "saving" (I understand that I have a product for which I paid relatively little money). Even after wearing them for three days, the shoes simply pinch; the previous edition was soft and had a comfortable insole, the current one is just plastic. The only plus is that the sizing hasn’t changed. Generally, next time I’ll choose a different model because this one simply "got worse."

Panama-type sole that supposedly prevents mud from sticking? The first bit of mud, and the sole gets covered and slips like a slick tire in the rain. They look cool and that's where the advantages end.

The boots are very nice, the cheapest "comfort" insole from a random shoe store and higher socks (nylon feels unpleasantly sticky to the skin, especially when slightly damp) make them really comfortable instead of just acceptable. The only drawback is the quality of the leather they're made of. I know they aren't expensive – that's why they didn't get three stars – but even with fairly frequent polishing, the leather started to crack relatively quickly, though the structure of the boots remains intact.

I have already bought a second pair. The first pair was worn during the summer with cargo shorts. They are light and breathable. They work well during marches with my dog in the forests and parks. Additionally, I inserted a Mil-Tec insole. As always, I bought them online. Always size 45. In these shoes, size 45 is 0.5 cm larger than in other shoes.

AMAZING! Comfortable, very durable, solid boots. Nothing rubs (which is usually a problem for me with most shoes), you can walk in them through forests, ruins, and other urbex-bushcraft terrains ;) I recommend them!

These are iconic shoes, which is why I decided to buy them (unfortunately at another store, as militaria.pl didn't have my size). Comfortable shoes, good both for outdoors and the city. I bought an additional insole and I can walk in them for hours. My foot doesn't sweat and they're very comfortable. In spring, I’ll buy the black ones, I hope size 44 will be available.

Boots bought for mushroom picking. They are solid, but it’s a replica and cheap, so you can’t expect miracles. Minus one star because when I took out the insoles, the top of the sole was made of cardboard. Really not for the jungle. It's not mentioned in the description, but it's size W, which means wide.

I bought the shoes about a year ago. Not in this store but the same size. Used as everyday footwear as well as for work throughout the year. They were used for hiking through forests, factory ruins, trips to the shooting range, etc. Throughout the usage period, cleaned on average once a week using regular shoe polish available in any store. Conclusions from use are as follows: the shoes are comfortable, but it's worth buying a cushioning insole, especially if you walk a lot on hard surfaces. If properly selected, they will last a lot and for a long time. It's worth paying attention to the gluing of the soles because after a year, the left shoe started to come off a bit. The laces, as often happens, wore out quickly and were replaced with paracord. It’s also worth working with a lighter on protruding threads. Overall, I rate the shoes a solid 4.5/5, especially considering the price and the fact of constantly wearing them.

The Mil-Tec US Jungle Boots - Green OD met my expectations 100%. Military.pl store conducts its sales quickly and professionally – I recommend shopping at this store!!!

The shoes are very comfortable.
