Tips for the Perfect Fit
- Measure both feet. If one foot is slightly larger than the other, select a size that fits the larger of the two.
- Consider the type of socks you’ll be wearing with your boot. For thicker socks, you may want to select a half size larger than you normally wear.
- When you do receive your boots, we recommend first wearing them indoors for a few hours to ensure they’re the right fit.
Free Return Shipping
Rest assured that if the boot you receive doesn’t fit correctly, we pay for return shipping back to us. You can order with confidence knowing return shipping is always on us.

Comments about Danner Kinetic 8" Uniform Boots:
I've had mine for 4 months, I've been through five sets of strings and there is now large hole in the bottom of the sole. The hole has worn through to the mid-sole. 4 months! I've had my Fort Lewis boots since 2003, never had any issues with them. They, Danner, needs to focus on QUALITY and maintaing the integrity of the boot rather than keeping up with the newer style and fashion of "tactical footwear". Those who know will stick with the tried and true Danners, despite how fancy the others are.
Pros
- reasonable price
Cons
- Poor quality
- uncomfortable
- weak support

Comments about Danner Kinetic 8" Uniform Boots:
I have worn Danner boots exclusively on patrol (Police Officer) for 9 years: During that time I have worn Striker, Telson, and Striker II. When I found out the Telson (best boot ever!!!) was discontinued, I decided to try the Kinetic 8", and man do I regret it.
Out of the box, these boots feel of cheaper quality than other Danner boots. There is little ankle support, and the boots started to lose their shape after less than a month of wear (40 hours per week). They are also the least comfortable Danners I have worn.
This is the first time I have EVER regretted buying Danner boots. Save yourself the disappointment and buy the Striker II's or the Acadia's.
Pros
- Great price
- Very Comfortable
Cons
- Maybe add a side zipper

Been wearing them for over 2 weeks now and they are very comfortable. Broke in easliy and I feel like i'm wearing tennis shoes.
Comments about Danner Kinetic 8" Uniform Boots:
These boots are the best investment I ever made in regards to foot wear.
I wore Acadias for many years. Yes, no doubt, Acadias are indestructible. However, they are too heavy, too bulky, and have no arch support in any way, shape, or form.
After developing plantar fasciitis I knew I had to get rid of the Acadias.
I wish I would have found the Kinetics way sooner.
Danner fan for life.
Pros
- Comfortable
- Great Fitting

Comments about Danner Kinetic 8" Uniform Boots:
Had these for over a year. Great fitting and felt very good. Lots of running, walking and going through sticker brush. Only thing I found I didn't like was that the sole wore out very quickly. Got some new side zip ones and i'll see how those do.
