My first choice every time.
I’ve been wearing tactical gear and clothing for over 40 years. First Tactical products are my first choice every time. Reasonable prices. Superior quality. Excellent customer service.

Fit and function are great.
I just got back from an ALERRT trainer class and over 75% of the class was wearing First Tactical pants. Keep it up folks.

First Tactical is the #1 brand in our firehouse.
...damn near everyone wears the V2 pants and shorts. I always get complimented on them as well. They hold up to the abuse and the color lasts.

1st Tactical is the only brand that I wear.
As a Paramedic I am very picky about the pants I wear daily. The pocket setup is perfect for my setup and basic gear I carry. They are the most comfortable pants and are the only pants that I have seen completely protect me from large amounts of blood.

Boots didnt even last a full year. Used them for about 6 months and both left and right boot ripped from the soft mesh on the inside just from normal wear. Would not recommend if you're on patrol, they won't last. They are comfortable but too expensive to only last six months. Boots are a lot much worse than how they seem on the pictures. Was hoping 1st tactical would stand by their product but they dont, no refund ,no replacement.
I wanted to give these boots a try. I work in the Office but also on the SWAT Team. I wanted something comfortable but durable in the event we get called out. I love these boots. They fit snug to my feet and the tread it nice and grippy. Super light but durable, and they just look cool. I've worn them all day and worked off duty jobs with them while standing for hours and my feet, legs, and back feel less stressed.
I bought these boots based on the reviews I’ve seen and have to agree. They are very well built very light and if they fit me properly would be extremely comfortable. I ordered them in wide as I do have a very wide foot and unfortunately it seems they just run narrow even in wide sizes I even returned them once and ordered up half a size and unfortunately it’s still too tight. I tried wearing them for several weeks on duty as I work as a paramedic hoping they would loosen up and unfortunately they haven’t. That being said I do believe it is a very well-made boot it just unfortunately is not wide enough for me.
Hi Dylan, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you appreciate the lightweight design, quality construction, and overall comfort of the AERO-TAC™ boots. We’re sorry, however, that the fit remained too narrow even after trying the Wide option and sizing up. We understand how important a proper fit is, especially when you’re wearing your boots for long shifts as a paramedic.
We truly appreciate you giving the boots a thorough try and sharing your experience. Your feedback regarding the width and fit is valuable to us and will be shared with our product team as we continue to develop and improve our footwear.
These are super comfortable and light weight, the shoe lace garage is wonderful! I work 24h shifts and have no problems now. When I 1st purchased them I did a lot of research on boots and viewed a lot of pictures and reviews to make sure that these didn’t not have the fabric overlap with the zipper. But when I received them they unfortunately did have the fabric overlap. I tried to wear them for a few days and just could not do it as I had bruises on my ankles from it. I knew I couldn’t return them at that point so I decided to cut that fabric out and sew up the edges. They unfortunately are not fully water proof anymore but I can at least wear them. 10/10 after that was removed! Would love to see this same product with that change!
Hi Kaitlynn, We really appreciate you sharing your experience with the AERO-TAC™ boots. It’s great to hear that the lightweight comfort and lace garage have made such a difference during your 24-hour shifts. We’re sorry, however, that the fabric overlap around the zipper caused discomfort and bruising and prevented you from wearing the boots as intended.
We also appreciate your suggestion for a version without that fabric overlap. Feedback like this is incredibly helpful as we look for ways to improve the design and overall comfort of our footwear. We’re glad you were ultimately able to find a way to make the boots work for you, and we appreciate you giving them a try and sharing such thoughtful feedback.
Great fit
Very comfortable for long shifts
Very light
Breathable
I was looking for waterproof boots for work that would be comfortable to wear during my shifts. Some times I'll do doubles or work extra days in all kinds of weather. I decided to give these boots a try and I'm very pleased with these boots. They keep my feet cool and dry and are very breathable. The 3 pack of long duty socks go great with the boots. I would recommend these boots to anyone looking for work boots.
Absolutely love them!!
Tried these on in the house to check the feel. I was a little hesitant at first, but figured I’d give them a go. I bought these and another brand to see which ones I would keep. Wore them to work. I work hospital security and work 12 hr shifts. They felt pretty good for day 1. I may end up replacing the insoles for a little better cushion. As with all boots it will take some breaking in. I put in approx 16,000 steps in them. When I got home my feet were sweaty more than I expected, but that is because the boots are waterproof. I think these may become my winter boots where I need the warmth and water resistance in the snow. So far so good. Looks like I will be keeping them.
Initially, I was excited when I got the boots. They were very light, they looked great, and waterproof. But after about two weeks of wearing them, they are almost as stiff as they were on day one. The toe box is extremely narrow and I have very narrow feet. There’s very little cushion on the insoles so it’s like walking on hard ground. If I could, I would definitely be returning theseto get my money back. A lot of hype and not much on the delivery part. Disappointed!
They are very comfortable and waterproof
Fantastic Boot!!! I will continue to purchase these boots as needed. I have suggested them to anyone who has asked!
Everything arrived in perfect condition and as advertised!
I genuinely love these boots. Very comfortable very durable. Only complaint is they aren’t super breathable after 8 hours or so. Would 100 percent buy again!
Sole was not the best
Need ro break them in a little. But the look and feeling is durable, and theyre light as a feather.
A really good boot would recommend
Hello, thanks for the recommenation! We're glad to hear you think they're a really good boot. We appreciate your feedback!
Extremely light but have a sturdy feel. So far I am enjoying on patrol.
After reading the reviews and seeing conflicting accounts on sizing and comfort, I decided to give these boots a try and couldn't be happier. As soon as I slipped on the right boot I knew I made the right choice and though it's only been a week I've changed out my everyday shoes for these boots. They are light as a feather and give you that, "I can really move in these things," feeling. Like buying a pair of new basketball shoes and feeling they add inches to your jump out of the box, these provide confidence in all terrains. Here in New England in January it's wet, slippery, cold, muddy, and these take it all on, in stride. I will be back in the future 100%
Amazing boot. Cery pleased
These boots are as advertised! I will be purchasing the polished boot next.
Perfect for my job and being outside. Very light and comfortable.
comfortable lite
Just got mine going to were them first tonight break them in and review later but so far there super comfortable 👌 and feel great on my feet the insoles or 💯
First impressions just when picking up the box after delivery are wow these boots are light. True to size after trying on, very light and comfortable. Wish the laces went up a little bit higher, feels like a lot of tongue left out at the top. But it does have an integrated pocked to tuck laces into in the tongue which is pretty nice. Overall very happy and comfortable. Will update with how these hold up over time
So, it's been a few months since I bought these, and I really wanted to put them through the ringer before I commented.
These boots are freaking awesome. They are as comfortable as they are light. And they look really cool! I love these boots. They fit fantastic, I usually wear a 10 so that's what i ordered, and they fit great. I got the waterproof H20 line, with that said my boots can make my feet pretty hot somedays, so i would be interested to know if the non waterproof are any cooler.
Other than that, zero complaints.
Great boot
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience after a few months of wear. We really appreciate the thoughtful and detailed feedback! We appreciate your note about the warmth of the waterproof H20 boot. We do offer other non-waterproof AERO-TAC boots. Please check out our entire AERO-TAC collection here https://www.firsttactical.com/collections/aero-tac-boots.
Thanks again for your support and for putting our boots to the test!
The weight (or lack of it) is a game-changer. You almost forget you’re wearing boots, which makes a huge difference during long shifts or extended wear. They provide solid traction and ankle support without feeling bulky or restrictive.
Best boots I ever bought, yes I recommend it.
Thank you for the great feedback. We're glad to hear the boots are performing as intended. A lightweight build with strong traction and ankle support is exactly what we aim for, and it's great to know they're making a difference during long shifts and extended wear. Hearing that they're the best boots you've ever bought means a lot to our team.
We appreciate the recommendation and your trust in our gear. Thank you for supporting First Tactical!
