Magnum Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP Tactical Boot

The Magnum Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP is a waterproof leather tactical boot built for law enforcement, security, and special operations professionals who need all-day foot protection and comfort. It carries an EN ISO 20347:2012 occupational footwear certification with ratings for slip resistance, heat resistance, cold insulation, ankle protection, and more. Sizes run from 7 through 15, including half sizes.

Built for Long Shifts on Hard Ground

The Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP pairs a durable leather upper with breathable mesh panels, giving the boot structure where it counts while allowing airflow during extended wear. A fast-wicking lining pulls moisture away from the foot, reducing the discomfort that builds over a full shift. The padded collar adds cushioning at the ankle opening, where friction is most likely to cause irritation during prolonged use.

Impact Absorption from Ankle to Heel

Magnum's M-P.A.C.T. system provides ankle impact protection at the sides of the boot, addressing one of the more common stress points for officers and agents who spend hours on their feet or move across uneven terrain. The compression-molded RECOIL midsole absorbs impact energy underfoot and is designed to maintain support throughout the day rather than compressing out after the first few hours. The removable M.P.A.C.T. PRO high-rebound PU insole adds another layer of cushioning and can be swapped for an orthotic if needed.

Waterproof and Scanner-Safe Construction

The MAG-DRY PRO waterproof membrane keeps water out while remaining breathable, and it carries blood-borne pathogen protection, a relevant feature for first responders and medical personnel who may encounter biohazard exposure. All hardware on the boot is non-metallic composite, making it scanner-safe for courthouse, correctional, and secure-facility environments where metal detection is routine. The non-metallic composite shank provides underfoot support without adding metal content or significant weight. A YKK medial side zipper allows the boot to be pulled on and off quickly without loosening the lacing system. The MICHELIN outsole is rated slip and oil resistant and is designed for high traction across the varied surfaces common in operational environments.

Who This Is For and Isn't

The Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP suits law enforcement officers, security professionals, correctional staff, first responders, and military personnel who need a waterproof, scanner-safe boot rated for occupational use across slip-prone, hot, cold, and wet environments. The blood-borne pathogen protection in the membrane makes it a practical choice for EMS and medical responders as well.

This boot is certified to EN ISO 20347:2012 as occupational footwear. It does not carry a safety-toe rating and has no toe-cap impact or compression certification. It is not rated for electrical hazard protection. Buyers who require steel-toe or composite-toe certification should confirm those ratings before purchase, as this model does not state them.

Common Questions

What does the EN ISO 20347:2012 certification cover for this boot?

The Magnum Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP is certified to EN ISO 20347:2012 with the following ratings: OB (basic occupational footwear), E (energy absorption at the heel), FO (fuel and oil resistant outsole), HRO (heat-resistant outsole), CI (cold insulation), HI (heat insulation), AN (ankle protection), WR (water resistance), and SRC (slip resistance on ceramic tile and steel). This is an occupational footwear standard, not a safety-toe standard.

Is this boot scanner-safe for courthouse or secure-facility use?

Yes. The Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP is built with non-metallic composite hardware and a non-metallic composite shank throughout. This construction is designed to pass standard metal-detection screening, making it suitable for courthouse, correctional, and other secure-facility environments where officers must clear a scanner while on duty.

How does the waterproofing work, and does it include pathogen protection?

The Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP uses a MAG-DRY PRO waterproof membrane that keeps external water from penetrating the boot while allowing some breathability. The membrane also carries blood-borne pathogen protection, which is relevant for first responders, EMS personnel, and others who may encounter biohazard exposure during operations or on scene.

Can the insole be replaced with a custom orthotic?

The Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP comes with a removable M.P.A.C.T. PRO high-rebound PU insole. Because it is removable, the insole can be taken out and replaced with a custom orthotic or aftermarket insole, which is useful for wearers who require prescription footbeds or prefer a different cushioning profile for long shifts.

Are there any shipping restrictions for this boot?

The Magnum Strike Force 8.0 SZ WP is standard footwear and is not subject to body armor shipping restrictions. No state-level or federal restrictions apply to the purchase or possession of this boot.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise

When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.

1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry

Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.

We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.

2. Best price, guaranteed

If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.

Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.

3. Free fitment consultation

Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.

4. Trusted by thousands of customers

Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

Price Match Guarantee — Terms

  • You must have purchased the item from our website before requesting the price match.
  • Discounted items and "free with purchase" items are not eligible.
  • The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.
  • The price match is valid for six months from the date of your purchase.
  • The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
  • The competitor must operate an online store. Brick-and-mortar-only retailers do not qualify.
  • Price match applies to the item price plus shipping. Sales tax is excluded.

To request a price match, email us a link to the product on our site and the same product on the competitor's site within six months of purchase. We'll process the refund.
