Still not sure which model is right for you? Consider the following tips to help you narrow down your search.
Determine Your Intended Use
From a distance, a lot of heavy-duty footwear and boots may appear similar. For example, you may see a heavy-duty tactical boot intended for law enforcement use, and improperly assume it is suitable for fighting fires. While the boot you choose may be incredibly tough and robust for its intended application, if you expose it to conditions it is not intended for – like fire – you could run the risk of risking your own safety, along with the performance integrity of the boot. If you go just off of looks, you are likely to by a pair of footwear that is over or under-equipped for your intended uses. HAIX specializes in carefully designing all of our boots and shoes to meet the exact demands of the specific professions we serve. With the ability to organize our footwear by feature and profession, you can pinpoint a number of options that will meet you needs.
Look for Application-Specific Features
Does your job as an EMS professional expose you to various bacterial, chemical, and pathogenic hazards? Consider a HAIX boot with CROSSTECH® liners.

Don’t Sacrifice Comfort!
No matter how many high-performance safety features you build into a boot, they have no use if the boot is not comfortable and supportive to wear throughout your day.
