As you exit the aircraft and upon landing, your feet, ankles and legs will benefit from the maximum protection this boot provides through its leather construction, high performance rubber outsole, outstanding state-of-the-art Goodyear welt construction and reinforced side zipper with button clasp to keep it snug and tight.
