Magnum Boots

Magnum was kind enough to give me an awesome press kit which included hundreds of high res images of there boots and three pdf files showing the line up and some of the technology used. I uploaded them for you guys and if you want a better image of a specific boot let me know.

not me.
They are the worst I've had and they always end up full of holes where the foot bends, even with good care, and I've had 3 pairs.

I'd be curious to try their new model.

My first pair was the worst boot I ever had. Even worst that the 1970 erea leather military boots I had.

The newer models look a lot better then the older ones. I have an old pair of stealth's that I still use today on the battle fitness test since there broken in perfectly. The shock absorption in them is terrible but they were comfy. There new highly breathable boot looks fantastic.

I've had my Magnums for over a year now as a work boot and hiking/GP footwear, and in that time I've put them through anything and everything I can think of in terms of regular use and abuse (I get a new pair issued each year :P) and I have to say that the Stealths kind of suck. They decided to put fabric (not leather) in some of the most hard-wearing spots (no strong heel, poor tongue) and more importantly thought it would be a good idea to have a fabric to fabric stitch joint at the heel where the foot bends (instant split within 3 months) and on the tongue (6 month split). The good news is that they are comfy as f*ck, didn't take long to break in, and leather and rubber are decent quality....they just need to rethink their designs.

I love my Danner Pronghorns, and will buy another pair when mine die off (bought two years ago), worn through all kinds of crap (sand, mud, water, swamp juice, Ottawa winters, etc,) and abuse daily except in hot weather, still the comfiest boots I've ever owned.

This is true, at work however were divided half have 5.11 and half have Magnums. 5.11's are like walking on a cloud, comfortable and well made. Toronto ETF Officers were buying them the same time i was.
