Danner Men's Sonic Side-Zip 6" Boot — Black

Product Description

Side-zip duty boot that shines up for inspection and works a full shift

The Sonic is built for anybody whose boots are part of a uniform — police, EMS, fire, security — and who still has to be on their feet all day. The toe area is polishable so it meets uniform standards, the side zipper is semi-locking so it stays shut when you're moving and drops open when you pull it, and the Danner Dry liner is rated for bloodborne pathogen resistance to ASTM F1671, which matters on a call you didn't plan for. Full-grain leather takes the abuse at the toe and heel; Perspair panels on the sides cut the weight and let it breathe. At 19 ounces it wears closer to a work shoe than a duty boot.

FAQ

Does this have a safety toe? No. It's a soft toe boot — the toe is polishable for uniform inspection, not reinforced. If you need a protective toe, this isn't the model.

Is it actually waterproof? Yes. The Danner Dry liner is a 100% waterproof barrier that still lets moisture vapor out, so your feet don't soak from the inside either.

What does bloodborne pathogen resistance mean? The liner meets ASTM F1671-13, so it blocks blood and body-fluid penetration — a requirement on a lot of EMS and fire departments' boot specs.

How does the side zip hold up? It's semi-locking: it locks itself closed when you zip it up and releases when you pull the zipper down, so it won't creep open through a shift.

How heavy is it? 19 ounces per boot, which is light for a 6" waterproof duty boot.
