Online retail merchant, Militarybootsdirect.com is pleased to release the addition of the Tactical Research Footwear Line by Belleville Footwear. This innovative footwear lineup was designed for Police officers, public security, and the U.S. Armed Forces by the same boot creators that have designed Belleville’s globally-known military footwear. The Tactical Research Line employs many of the design traits that maintains Belleville’s notability for being one of the most advanced and highest quality combat footwear companies in the world.

Tactical Research offers three primary tactical footwear lines: the Paladin, the Kiowa, and the Khyber. The very modern, sleek design of all three models immediately gives this boot lineup a “tactical feel” where stealth and speed come to mind. Each of the three Tactical Research models offer design features that are specific to a particular mission or use. However, common to all three models is Belleville’s famous TR-1 high performance insole that employs several advanced anatomical features. The precision molded insole features a deeply formed heel cup that stabilizes the heel and prevents heat and friction, an extended arch support that compensates for overpronation of the arch, and a honeycomb forefoot design to maximize air circulation on the sole of the foot. Footwear testers have given the patented TR-1 insole positive reviews in comfort during long hours and high activity scenarios. All Tactical Research Boots are 8 inches, complying with military regulations.

The Paladin is a superlight safety toe tactical boot intended for settings involving electrical and/or toe dangers such as a maintenance hangar or combat vehicle. The Paladin is available in desert tan and sage green colors, which are USAF-approved for uniform wear. The Paladin weighs in at a meager 25.6 oz for a size 9 through a combination of lightweight suede and nylon Cordura construction over a compressed EVA sole.

The Kiowa is a lightweight boot designed for tactical and combat training and operations. It features a beefy lug design for rough terrain and an extra-large EVA midsole for extended comfort during long duty hours. The Kiowa comes in black leather, Air Force uniform-approved sage green, and desert camo colors. This model weighs in at only 23 oz per boot, which is almost 10 oz less than the competition.

Finally, the Tactical Research Khyber a top performing tactical boot intended for mountainous terrain. Intended applications for this boot are uneven and/or sandy mountainous terrain. It features a deeply serrated heel kicker for braking and sliding on steep terrain, serrated toe bumpers for uphill climbs, and a Vibram IBEX Outsole for Rugged Terrain. All of this in a lightweight package of 24 oz per boot which makes it a top choice for tactical traning and operations.

All Tactical Research models are constructed using cutting edge technology and top quality materials. This new footwear line is quickly gaining popularity as many are discovering that Tactical Research offers some of the best performing boots on the market.
