Nike made these boots specifically for the Special Forces. Very light weight, extra long laces for tourniquets, and the Nike Free sole. I would not say these are the best for kicking teeth in, but as far as light and keeping the sand and camel spiders out they are top shelf. These were sent to me by my good friend Lieutenant James Savage, who is currently stationed in Iraq.
I am military and I am interested in purchasing a pair of the SF boots, how do I go about doing so?
The same question with SGT Garcia, how can we purchase this SF boots.I see a lot of my fellow comrades wearing this boots and said it is comfortable when in patrol.
Okay guys, you’ve probably given up by now… or just asked the people you see wearing them. If I were you I’d go to:

Or just visit nike.com and type Special Forces in the search bar :)
I used them in Konar prov in Af, great, loved them, amazing. You want to be fast and there are only 2 ways to do so, stronger or lighter, the easiest way is to get light. I humped the mnts with these and never twisted an ankle.
http://www.nikestore.com/sf – works too (if you are ‘military’, or a non-military ‘first responder’)
These sound really good. How is the sizing? Do they run big/small, or true to size?
The majority agree that they are consistent with typical boot sizing…
They have been designed to ‘fit’ the average joe, and seem to adapt well
to a reasonable range of foot widths, this is according to the guys in units
that I’ve worked with that have been wearing them.
Coyote,
How do I get these boots today???
I am glad I stopped by to read this post. It is refreshing to read an author who knows the subject matter. I will be adding you to my reader.
you can all get them boots on nike.com..search for SF BOOTS and you will find them for 130.00! hope is helps!
got a small question! are these considered “authorized”? i bought a pair for ***** and giggles to wear around our battalion and have had numerous questions as to whether they are authorized? i mean they are 8 to 10 inches in height, tan with a tan sole, i mean where the hell does the army put out a list to say hey guys these are authorized and these aren’t? thanks for the help if you can!!
They should be authorized by most units. The biggest thing is that they meet the height requirement of 8 inches. We had a list of authorized and unauthorized boots posted in our CP so you may want to look there.
Killer to hear the Nike Special Forces Boot are working well. I am working with a guy that is going through Rangers school now and he loves them!
I did a short review on them here at

i don’t get it!
they have pretty much taken a 40 year old boot and put a free outsole on it. i would have thought nike of all people could have been more creative and thought of some new ways to benefit a special forces guy. the actual uniform boot brands do a better job than this (sorry tinker) – check out magnum boots – they have some very interesting stuff coming through….
I have military boots shop in North Carolina.
I’m interested in carrying Nike special force desert boot.
How can I find the wholesaler which is carrying that items?
I like them they are very light,I got the oakley boots to have a second pair of boots over here in Iraq, but they wore out and the Nike Boots are still kicking!!The Nike’s are every Day boots and i love them going to get another pair!!!!!!!
these boots are not for afghanistan, comfortable yes, for fobbits yes. not for outside the wire, not for dismounted infantry!
Im in the militay and want to purchase a pair of those boots how do I go by doing so.
Says: I’ve tried to buy a pair of them, and can’t find them in my size. The coyotes. They have my size in black. I dont’t need black.
I have seen these and agree they are great. Regulation states that the leather must be cowhide the NIKE SFB is synthetic leather… As we all know you get away with a lot more on the other side of the pond.
Wore them at SFAS, worked well for me and a lot of my bros. I see SF dudes wearing
them all the time @ Bragg.
i bought a pair of these boots a couple weeks ago and have been wearing them and love em and now there saying i cant wear them cause theres a logo on the side..but i can wear a pair a bates or bellvilles and it says the name on the side??
Hey guy’s,

Charlie,
