Under Armour Unisex-Adult Stellar Tac Side Zip Sneaker

Bought my boots for EMT school and I continue to use them for every shift of my job as well. So far they’ve been very reliable with the side zipper and the overall construction of the boot is nice. I am in a rural environment 80% of my calls for reference.So far, I’ve been in 90 degree (F) and I’ve been in 14 degree (F) weather and in both situations they’ve been awesome. The boot itself isn’t waterproof so I try to avoid deep puddles/mud as to keep my feet dry. They’ve handled snow well but I wouldn’t push it past 4 inches without fear of getting my feet wet due to the mesh permeation.The boot itself is very forgiving to wear. This is my first pair of actual boots and it very easy to wear. They do have a break-in period but if you are active in them, they wear in quickly.The side zipper is amazing. I would say the key to keeping the zipper NOT broken would be to be easy on the zipper pull and don’t wrench on it. The zipper on both boots still work well and haven’t given me any issues whatsoever.One of the downsides is that the boots don’t have a steel/plastic toe. Fortunately I haven’t had an instance where that’s been necessary however I know that’s a dealbreaker for some. The boots do have an ankle cup that keep your feet secure from the rear. No blisters or awkward rubbing from either the toe or heel and I can even get away with wearing ankle socks in these boots as well.The boots also clean up easy as well. I don’t shine them but if you want to make these REALLY stretch I would.In terms of slippage and grip, they are good in everything that I’ve run into except ice. You’ll definitely skate in these if ice in present. To be safe, I’d also be weary of painted surfaces that are wet as well. For reference, I wouldn’t wear these in a kitchen.I bough these at a size 10.5. My converse size is a 9 and my vans are a 10.5 (10 for slip-ons) and my Nike running shoes are a 10. Hopefully this size reference helps if you’re buying these online.If you do security work, urban medical, desk work, etc., I would highly recommend these. I’ve owned my pair for 6+ months of regular use and would probably buy another pair.

Bought these for work and they are comfortable and light. I walk around a lot close to 2 miles a day in then and they feel like a shoe and are very light. Side zipper is a must

This is my third pair of these boots. They are comfortable. They aren’t the longest lasting boot but for the price you can buy two or three pairs compared to others. I wear these boots five days a weeks for work and they last me nearly a year.

Easy to put on thanks to zipper, durable with leather outsole.

The boots are fine, they broke in pretty quickly and almost caused no discomfort.The only issue I run into is trying to put them on after unzipping them. Your heel doesn't have enough space to slide down into the boot without having to use a shoe horn, or the pull tab on the back.I wish the opening at the end of the zipper area near the heel was a little more forgiving when sliding my boots on.

Great boot for the money but watch out for zipper failure. Mine broke after a few months but I was given a replacement. If the zipper holds up it's an excellent boot. Very comfortable, durable and light.

These are comfy boots but half size too small! I am exchanging for half size larger! Save some time and do the same when you order your shoe size.

I don’t no why the bad reviews, however all I can say is you can’t please everyone all the time and there is always going to be that 10 percent that will be unhappy for one reason or another. I want to inform anyone reading this review, I have order 3 pairs one for each of my son’s and we have had them going on two years and not a tear or rip in them and in fact I am still wearing them, see the image. I just ordered two more pairs because they are that outstanding. They are very comfortable and easy to put on. They are a sneaker side zipper boot. Let say this if you take care of your boots they will take care of you with long wear. If you wearing them for Constuction you have the wrong boot for that. If you got a reject that could happen send them back and get a new pair.

These are well made and a good boot. I've been wearing for work for some months and have no complaints over quality. However; I find the ankle fit can be tight (I have my laces fairly loose fitting). I also have an old ankle injury and when sat down find the boots very heavy on my ankles after a few hours.Other than that they are a good solid boot.

As a UK based response car Paramedic I need comfy lightweight boots that will stand the test of time. Out of the box they were very stiff across the top of the foot but very quickly softened and are some of the comfiest boots I have worn, they are certainly very light. In the past I have had magnum, haix and 5.11, it’s to early to say how these compare to the 5.11s they have replaced but they are very comfy and feel like a pair of trainers.Only downside to them is they feel very hot, no sweaty feet as of yet but will have to wait and see what they are like in the summer.They fit as expected, they also look and feel well made.

Best buy

very light with good grip and comfortable to wear even on 12 hours shifts
