Ready to shield your feet, no matter what the job throws your way.

The 5.11 A.T.A.C. 2.0 8" Shield Boot takes everything you loved about the original and steps it up with next-level protection and comfort. Built tough for the harshest conditions, these boots don’t just meet standards — they crush them. From firefighting calls to tactical ops, these boots keep you moving with confidence.

Waterproof? Check. Thanks to 5.11’s SlipStream™ membrane, your feet stay dry and shielded from bloodborne pathogens no matter the mess you walk through. And that ASTM/CSA Carbon-TAC toe? It’s polishable and ready to protect your toes from serious impact, meeting ASTM 2413-17 M I/75 C/75 EH PR and CSA Z195-14 standards — so you get compression, cut, abrasion, electrical, AND puncture protection, all wrapped into one.

All-day comfort? No problem. The full-length dual durometer Ortholite® footbed keeps your feet cool and cushioned, while the Achilles flex zone adds freedom of movement without losing support. Plus, a puncture-resistant midsole board and slip- & oil-resistant outsole mean you stay safe on every surface.

Finally, the YKK® side zipper makes putting these boots on and off a breeze — because when duty calls, you don’t want to waste a second.
