Haix North America, Inc.

I ordered my first pair of Haix Duty Boots after a visit to the booth at Shotshow. I was impressed by how comfortable they were right out of the box. I always have concerns with different kinds of boots and how well they polish up. They definitely passed the test. Pleased all the way around!

Bought the "Black Eagle Athletic 2.0 VT High Side Zip Desert" two and a half years ago. I walk all day for work, often through rough terrain so footwear is a very important part of my gear.
I literally could not have made a better choice with these boots. True to size, no break-in period to speak of, zero blisters, durable, super comfortable, lots of grip, and lots support for my weak little baby ankles. I used these boots every day and easily put 1000+ miles on them.
The ONE minor drawback are the zippers. Yes, they're convenient to quickly zip in and out of, but they are also a weak spot. The original zippers broke after about a year. I had a cobbler put new zippers in, and these zippers just bit the dust a few weeks ago. I'm down to wrapping electrical tape around them until I can get new zippers installed.

Regardless, I love these boots and absolutely will be getting another pair if these ones ever actually wear out.
