Viper TACTICALVenom Performance Boots

Right out of the box I could tell these were well made, they have a very sturdy build and hard waring materials. They feel very comfortable and also look very nice. I’m a very happy customer. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and struggle to get good quality footwear all the time, so I’m very pleased to get these and find I’m getting what I want and pay for

Firstly, these boots do look awesome. They're a solid build with what seems like quality materials throughout. I'm a size 9 uk and ordered to the correct size, they fit comfortably with no squished toes... On the day they arrived i tried them on and they felt really good. I took a short 15 minute walk and everything was ok. However, the next day i took a 2 hour walk wearing light cotton socks, and these boots tore my feet to pieces. Blisters on my toes and heels. For a week or so as i let my feet heal up, i was unsure about these boots, i thought that maybe i had wasted £80... However, i'm stubborn, and i wanted to stick with them and try to break them in. I started wearing thick cordura socks, and these made a huge difference. No more hotspots or blisters, plus the cordura socks add a little extra waterproofing. It took a couple of weeks before i felt sure they were broken in good and proper... I give these boots five stars, because even though i suffered at the beginning, once they're properly broken in, they are excellent. Strong, stable and sturdy. I haven't tried them up the mountains yet, but i feel confident they'll hold up really well... My top advice, wear thick socks from the start, and give yourself a bit of time to break them in.

My work boot for 2 years used for 12 hour shifts.Extremely comfy & good fit, also very light. Soles have faded away so am looking to now replace. Sadly not polishable so am not the owner of the smartest boots in my team. Definitely would recommend (unless you are in the Guards Division)

Very nice boots. Fantastic fit and tough, worn across the forest and up rocky out crops and have done the job well. Good water repellent properties but not completely waterproof but not supposed to be, takes a while for water to find its way in though. Update 11/2021. For some reason this season these boots are feeling a bit tight and as some others have said they feel tight along the side but there is an easy solution for this and it is a quick and cheap remedy. I simply took mine to Timpson (A shoe repair, watch repairer etc.) located outside my local ASDA and he simply stretched them for 24 hours and they are now a perfect fit once again and I'm a happy bunny cause I so love these boots.

Very light but also very supportive!Would recommend.

the material used behind the ankle area is not soft enough. It will rub your skin off even with you wearing some socks. Got badly bruised by them.

Bought these to go into a new job role, and having had viper boot before and k owing it's a large brand name, thought these boots would be perfect as not to rigid and the heel hooks on the back were a good selling pointFast forward to a little near 2 months of use and these boots are failing, the inside of the heel wore through in less than 3 weeks of wearing hence the silver tape and gel heel pad, the insoles had to be changed for decent comfort ones as the ones that came with were so paper thin.The stitching is also coming away on the outside heel protection as well.It's amazing that these have got this bad so quickly almost as if they were made to just last until after the warranty window and return windowWill be having to bite the bullet and spend tripple digits on my next pair of boots to avoid this issue

I usually buy Magnum boots but the last pair ripped and split within a year which has never happened before, I usually look after my gear but they didn't last.Thought I'd try a new brand and I absolutely love these, the material is soft but sturdy.They're extremely lightweight and give the support you require from a boot.Very cushioned and it's like walking on cotton wool.Great pair of bootsI've been wearing them for a week now and can't comment about longevity yet but I'll keep updates coming if need be.
