The composite toe and shank are non-conductive, the speedlace eyelets are non-metallic, and a side zipper allows fast don and doff without triggering metal detectors. Available in men's sizes 4 through 15.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Security-Sensitive Environments\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Forced Entry boot's composite toe and shank contain no metal, making it compatible with security screening environments where steel-toe boots would set off detectors. The composite toe still provides structural protection for the forefoot, and the non-metallic shank supports the midfoot without adding conductivity. This combination suits officers, security personnel, and contractors who move through controlled access points regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFast On, Fast Off\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe side zipper runs the full height of the shaft, letting the wearer slide the boot on or off without unlacing. Non-metallic speedlace eyelets keep the lace system secure during wear and eliminate another potential metal-detector trigger. Together, the zipper and speedlace system reduce the time spent at the boot during shift changes or rapid deployment situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eComfort Over a Long Shift\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA moisture-wicking lining moves sweat away from the foot during extended wear, helping keep feet dry across a full duty shift. The pigskin leather collar sits against the ankle with enough softness to reduce break-in friction, and the gusseted tongue seals the boot opening against debris and moisture entry. The slip-resistant sole provides traction across varied surfaces and is rated for all-weather use. The boot is also noted as suitable for cold-weather conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-Metallic Composite Toe and Shank:\u003c\/strong\u003e non-conductive, security-checkpoint compatible, no metal content\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Zipper:\u003c\/strong\u003e full-height zipper for fast on\/off without unlacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-Metallic Speedlace Eyelets:\u003c\/strong\u003e secure lacing with no metal-detector interference\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlip-Resistant Sole:\u003c\/strong\u003e traction across varied terrain and weather conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMoisture-Wicking Lining:\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps feet dry during prolonged wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePigskin Leather Collar with Gusseted Tongue:\u003c\/strong\u003e comfort at the ankle, debris and moisture seal at the entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShaft Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e8 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eToe Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNon-metallic composite toe\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShank\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNon-metallic composite\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eUpper Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLeather \/ Nylon\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCollar Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePigskin leather\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLining\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMoisture-wicking\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eClosure\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNon-metallic speedlace eyelets + side zipper\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSole\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSlip-resistant\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeather Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAll weather; cold weather suitable\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCertification\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eISO Certified; meets American and European safety requirements\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAvailable Sizes\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13, 14, 15\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e⚠️ California Proposition 65 Warning: This product contains Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThis boot suits security officers, law enforcement personnel, and tactical professionals who need a duty boot that clears metal detectors without sacrificing toe protection or traction.

This makes it suitable for security checkpoints, courthouses, detention facilities, and other controlled-access environments where steel-toe boots would require removal or cause screening delays. The composite toe still provides structural forefoot protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat sizes are available?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Rothco Forced Entry 8-Inch Tactical Boot is available in men's sizes 4 through 15, including half sizes at 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5, 10.5, 11.5, 12.5. A size chart is available from Rothco's website for reference before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes the side zipper replace the laces, or do both closures work together?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eBoth closures work together on the Forced Entry boot. The non-metallic speedlace eyelets keep the boot snug and secure during wear, while the side zipper allows the boot to be slipped on or off quickly without fully unlacing. Most wearers lace the boot to their preferred fit and then use the zipper for daily don and doff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs this boot waterproof?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eNo waterproof membrane or waterproof rating is stated for the Rothco Forced Entry Tactical Boot. The boot is listed as all-weather and cold-weather suitable, and the gusseted tongue helps resist debris and moisture entry, but a confirmed waterproof construction is not specified. Buyers who require a waterproof boot should verify this before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat safety certifications does this boot carry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Rothco Forced Entry Tactical Boot is ISO Certified and meets American and European safety requirements. The specific ASTM, EN, or other named standards underlying those claims are not stated on this product. If compliance with a specific standard is required for your role or jurisdiction, confirm the exact standard with Rothco before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rothco","offers":[{"title":"4","offer_id":67126343926131,"sku":"RTC-5063-4","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5","offer_id":67126343958899,"sku":"RTC-5063-R5","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5","offer_id":67126343991667,"sku":"RTC-5063-R5-1-2","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6","offer_id":67126344024435,"sku":"RTC-5063-R6","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5","offer_id":67126344057203,"sku":"RTC-5063-R6-1-2","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7","offer_id":67126344089971,"sku":"RTC-5063-R7","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.5","offer_id":67126344122739,"sku":"RTC-5063-R7-1-2","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8","offer_id":67126344155507,"sku":"RTC-5063-R8","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5","offer_id":67126344188275,"sku":"RTC-5063-R8-1-2","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9","offer_id":67126344221043,"sku":"RTC-5063-R9","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5","offer_id":67126344253811,"sku":"RTC-5063-R9-1-2","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":67126344286579,"sku":"RTC-5063-R10","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5","offer_id":67126344319347,"sku":"RTC-5063-R10-1-2","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11","offer_id":67126344352115,"sku":"RTC-5063-R11","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5","offer_id":67126344384883,"sku":"RTC-5063-11.5","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12","offer_id":67126344417651,"sku":"RTC-5063-R12","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.5","offer_id":67126344450419,"sku":"RTC-5063-12.5","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13","offer_id":67126344483187,"sku":"RTC-5063-R13","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14","offer_id":67126344515955,"sku":"RTC-5063-R14","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15","offer_id":67126344548723,"sku":"RTC-5063-R15","price":113.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1926\/7025\/files\/5063-B-amazon1-sq.jpg?v=1792114374","url":"https:\/\/bulletproofzone.com\/products\/rothco-forced-entry-tactical-boot-composite-toe-side-zipper-8-inch","provider":"Bulletproof Zone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
