3yrs of customer feedback on Original Swat boots

We still get a large number of people in our store that have never heard of the Original Swat footwear company, but locally, there are more and more of our Police Departments wearing their products.  We have seen several improvements and re-designs with their products as well as some very new lightweight tactical boots.   I personally have worn the boots for over 3yrs and not a single one of them has been flawed or fell apart on me and I wear them 7 days a week.  There are differences in what people’s line of work is and not everyone is going to need wear waterproof or composite toe boots.  If you haven’t noticed, steel toe footwear is a thing of the past.

The SEK900 were a very popular all leather boot for us but for some reason they were discontinued.   The 1150 Original Swat Boots are still the most popular lace up boot and the 1152 and now 1312 Chase Low boots are the most popular side zip boots.  Boots are increasing becoming lighter and lighter as the materials have improved.  The Slip on Moc boots are also very popular with the EMS as well as our number one Paramedic boot the waterproof 1234 which is a waterproof version of the 1232 air boots. We have seen what Original Swat is coming out with this SHOT SHOW and are looking forward to the new Chase low womens footwear.

Tactical Clothing and footwear for women

I’m not sure exactly how to describe where the exact crossover is from womens tactical clothing to mens clothing, but there is definitely a line that is there.  With womens pants there are slight variations in the waist that women may want over what men want but not everyone really cares.  We have had several women in our store that were wearing womens EMS pants from 5.11 tactical but the mens Eotac 203 navy pants were just fine.   Much if this depends on body type and tolerance of comfort.  Our line of Tru Spec 24/7 pants are probable the best received tactical or ems pants for women. There is just something about womens clothing that many tactical companies have not be able to design very well.

When it comes to footwear, we signed on to be an Original Swat footwear dealer over 3 yrs ago and we were very happy that our first experiences with the product line have been all good.  In recent years we have had very good responses with the Original Swat womens boots which are similar to the mens style.  Slight differences in sizing is pretty much all there is.  Many women in the tactical industry are forced to wear mens boots or mens tactical pants, shirts and vests that were never designed for their bodies.   Original Swat footwear is highly regarded as the best tactical boot in it’s price range.
