having a heavy boot could be actually really good as a work boot. Those stitching help them last a looong time
I like your video on these. I have been out of the Corps for 25 years. These things are heavy, for sure, but they are also much more comfortable than the issue boots I had at my time. Mine had a rubber sole, no foam cushioned midsole like these.
I like the wider shape on them because with the seam on soles, they fit wider than the welt on boots. I bought a couple pairs from Danner on sale for $75 a few years ago. I wouldn't pay the $300+ on these. I use them for hiking and at work, very durable.
The Danners really aren’t heavy and are very comfortable and durable
I wear the Danner Rat gortex in the snow as a logger in the PNW, the vibram tread is a different rubber than the Arcadia model soft even in frigid ice conditions like having snow tires on your feet! Buy these the summrr mojave rat is a great boot also for when the heat tab goes up but let me tell you the gortex 600g is fn a hot ass boot they didn't skimp! Jarhead boot good!
For a work horse of a work boot I've had great luck with them. They are a little heavy but they can be rebuilt, have good traction and stiffness, and the vent keeps your foot dry.
They would suck for PT.
This video saved me 300.00 dollars lol
They'll get you through anything but they'll also make you sad while doing it....
Whys that😂
I got the Danner RAT boots back in 2009 and they were way lighter and prevented foot rolling compared to the Bates MCCB issued in 2007.
I do disaster response with the Red Cross. My RAT boots have been a life saver working on gravel, grass, and broken glass.
I work for a contract company that provides services for AAV's and is staffed by mostly old jarheads. I bought these for work because steel toe is required, and Ive found that all the bates lites and other running shoe style bots ware out withina couple years. I hope these are the last boots I ever buy
hey man, where are you contracting? my buddy is a marine with aav in cali and always talks about the contractors out there, I honestly didn’t even know that was a thing for civilians to do alongside military. hope it’s going well
They will last you. I don’t even take care of them and they’ve lasted me 12 years since I got them in Afghanistan to nowadays where I used them for work.
I just got the Danners. $76. Great value
They look as good as my old black combat boots from 32 yrs ago!
Definitely get some used or at surplus, mine were 60 brand new
You think the Danner rat are any better for hiking trips? Or much better to just go with some light hiking shoes and forget it?
As a work boot the wellco rat boot is totally decent. On my 3rd pair in as many years. Only paying half price though...
Same
3 pairs of Wellcos in three years? Wow, you must work hard.
Thank you😺
I go through boots. I cycle them. First they start as my Casual Wear Work Boots and as they loose their looks they go to my Hard and Rough Work Boots. I need boots that are easy to put on (military vertical loop are the best to loosen and tighten up), comfortable for standing, walking, and getting me through the day, and are insanely tough. That is why I buy surplus Military boots. I have scored Black REDWING made 1980 vintage combat boots ($40 + shipping), Black Wolverine made Army boots early 1990's ($60 free shipping), Black Belleville Flight Deck Boots ($60 + shipping - note these are heavy boots but the most comfortable - best for all weather conditions), and just purchased these Wellco RAT Boots in Tan for $70 (have not arrived yet). All were NEW OLD STOCK UNISSUED. I buy them because I need tough and inexpensive. Has nothing to do with the Globe and Anchor on the side of the boot and even though I am a Veteran I was Navy not a Marine. The emblem does not bother me a bit. They are for working in.
These look great casually tbh
I love these boots. Ive just about worn through my second pair
How do these sizes compare to a Belleville?
they are alrught
Have owned both bates and danner RAT boots, danner is higher quality with the chance to get them rebuilt and are a bit heavier than the bates version. Bates are cheaper a bit lighter and if you own the bates gortex version the liner isnt sewn down well in the boot. Both were great when I had them did everything from pt, hikes, and CFT in them overall my favorite boot but both companies have discontinuedt hem, there are leftovers or secondaries you can find online but your best bet is to just go with the danner MEB its an updated RAT boot just without the leather on the heel and toe
When did these start being issued?
I've also got the danner rat boot I really like them I don't think they're heavy they're definitely lighter than my other work boots and I had them on a and they've got a lifetime warranty
Great Video!... You talked me out it... I was looking for a solid Motorbike boot, an ankle Guardian, but NOT a Thug of a Boot!... trouble discerning gear shifts with a heavy boot, it just Stomps on Everything!
Great thanks 👏
Just bought em at an army & navy store they are so comfortable
also, son.. Combat boots are designed to do what some of us do at ‘work’ so yeah i wear combat boots to work and run with heavy loads over long distances for hours and wear them until the soles split. The question is when. The grass never gets greener.
I'm getting them cause they look badass. That's the only reason
Danner offers rebuild service for these boots.
Should I buy mine with the same size as the combat hot weather ones?
No one PT in these, they are heavy af
When I was in, and utes & boots was worn for PT, we'd do jungle boots! Our leather combat boots (at least mine were) could get over broken in!
Wellco makes rat boots and I used those in the Marines as well.
How did the wellco boots hold up?
@@Username-cb4fg the front of the them opened up big time. But I did use them a lot!
@@angelbenitez2658 so u used wellco in the marines? Are wellco good?
@@jerryreed1359 I liked them but I saw some recent articles saying they weren’t actually made in the US and were actually made in China. They were my first RAT boots so I love them and even got them refurbished.
The 360 are not for drill you boot! My RAT boots got me through Afghanistan circa 2010, A&S and everyday hikes: snow, rain & ice. And yea, my boots have more time TIS than you! Give them the proper respect they deserve.
How about giving a proper answer then. What are the 360 for?
I waterproof my rats with melted crayon. Works awesome. And multicam.
Man, the first time you do drill in leather sole shoes and M1 garands lol it’ll change you
Do you sell any of your old worn boots? i am interested
I’ve always loved the way these boots but I’m not gonna get a pair cuz I don’t want some Marine to pick on me lol.
That cover is disgusting devil
Shut up
I go through six and they hardly show any wear.... tf
I’m a wanna be mr.boot today
Waterproof?
That is a vent in the bottom on the boot he points at. Definitely not water proof. Great for hot and dry...crap for cold and wet.
You always have great boots. I like your boots very much
Have you ever heard of law enforcement? We use those boots too, and we aren't wanna bes! ;)
Cops are the biggest wannabes
Need a haircut.
Dude. You're a marine? That was my first question. Get some more.
Want to sniff
Mondo pt boots.
BEST
