Hi all,

I'm a firefighter and i don't have any experiences @ military boots.

Someone knows the ranger gsg9-s from haix?
http://www.haix.com/eng/landing_gsg9s_en.php

Any recommendations?

I know the comany from the fire brigade. And the haix fire fighting boots are great.

Thanks for answers.

That link says that this boot isn't even available until next month. How would anyone have experience with it?

The design seems reasonable for the job. I know only Airpower military series from Haix, and they performed reasonably well - on par with Lowa's and Meindl's of the same boot class. I remember the Meindl guys being pissed of with Haix stepping into the mil/le market from the firefighting market - but that was rather sign the Haix is competitive. Generally I'd trust the brand.

sorry, my fault!

I mean the ranger gsg9, not the gsg9-s (gsg9-s the new edition? i don't know)
