AR 670-1 Compliant Military Boots

Military boots are one of the most important pieces of a uniform, just ask any soldier. If you can’t move with speed and confidence, you can’t serve to your full potential. There are certain specifications that a boot must meet to be considered AR 670-1 compliant. Patriot Outfitters has the largest selection of AR 670-1 compliant boots for sale ranging in colors from coyote to tan. The requirements include:

• Tan or coyote in color
• 8 to 10 inches in height
• Made of tan or coyote flesh-side out cattle hide leather
• Plain toe
• Soles match the color of the tan or coyote upper materials
• Rubber and polyether polyurethane are the only outsole materials that are authorized
• Sole not to exceed 2 inches in height, when measured from the bottom of the outsole, and will not extend up the back of the heel or boot or over the top of the toe
• Exterior of the boot upper will not contain mesh but will be constructed of either all leather or a combination of leather and non-mesh fabric

These specifications can be found under Army Regulation 670-1. For more information about AR 670-1 compliance regulations, please visit DA PAM 670-1 for details.

AR 670-1 Authorized Boots:

One of the best OCP boots is the Nike SFB Gen 2 Lt Boot. This Nike OCP boot is constructed with cushioned midsoles, breathability, and ample flexibility that provides a fit equivalent to that of an athletic shoe.

A go-to Army OCP boot is the Oakley Light Assault Boot. The Oakley OCP boots help you move quickly and comfortably during rucks or while out in the field. It features an EVA midsole and Cordura fabric, in addition to being lightweight, durable, and breathable.

Danner OCP Boots are another option for top-rated authorized Army and USAF boots. The Danner Tachyon Coyote 8S Duty Boot is a boot first, a sneaker second. It is designed to give additional support and comfort when our military personnel are bearing heavy loads and are in high-intensity environments.
