Men's Oakley 8" SI Assault - A

I wore the last pair for over two years, did not even have to break them in. I just put them on it felt like they were made for my feet. Finally, they wore out. Just got my second pair. They material design has been changed, hard to get on, do not like the strings, and the material pinches my right foot, I do like the soles, but Oakley you need to go back to the old design. I am not as satisfied with these boots as I was the first pair, like the soles as I said above, but do not like the design, the top of the boot is too small it is hard to get your foot into and i do not have big feet. If I had known I would have had these problems I would not have got the second pair.

I bought these in July 2008. I wore them everyday in OEF through Feb 09 and then again on a short tour Aug 09-Dec09. I still wear them nearly every day, Dec11 now. They lost alot of their support in the last year. The soles are pretty worn out. Stiching around the sole has not come undone, they aren't stained even after getting oil on them at the motorpool a number of times. The vent covers haven't come off after months of route clearance through rocky terrain and the soles haven't split or broken any treads off the bottom. The eyelets got sharp after about 6 months and started cutting my laces occasionally. My set is made in the USA. Heck i'd take a picture and post them if I could, they look worn but nothing is functionally wrong except they don't feel too supportive like I mentioned. Time for a new set but I feel like the abuse I put them through was worth the money i paid to get three years of good use out of them. I'll keep them to abuse around the house.

i love them . they are like gloves for your feet and they stand up to a beating . i wonder if those who complain got the one's made in the good old USA. i'm going to buy another pair.

my second pair lasted me 4 months this time. again the same issue as my last review. glad i got this pair free from 1 year defective warranty from the last pair. still feel i didnt get the 185 value form both pairs combined. however when getting the second pair customer support was awsome, very easy to deal with. and for a second and final time, THE QUALITY OF YOUR BOOTS ARE HORRIBLE OAKLEY!!!!!

I love Oakley products, but their boots just don't cut it. Along with the other review previously, I too had the back of the heel in the inside tear and caused a lot of blisters. I learned how much they were broken after a ruck March and painful blisters.

with the amount of money these boots cost one would think they are getting a quality product. I bought a pair of these oakley boots and in two months the leather inside the boot thats against the back of your heel has completely worn out. I only wear them to work. i dont wear them improperly (loose). I was hoping t get a year out of them. two months.... stick to making sunglasses oakley, your boots are horrible

Luv the design! From the subtle Oakley logo, to the rugged tyre-like thread cuts, to the two-tone desert color on the boots, unbelievable! And it's weight is amazingly light & it's also quite comfy. I am thinking of getting another pair already! ( maybe another color variation ) Highly recommended for work or play.
