Overview of the 5.11 Tactical ATAC 2.0 6" Side-Zip Boots | 12394
The 5.11 Tactical ATAC 2.0 6" Side-Zip Boots 12394 are built for professionals who need reliable footwear through long, demanding shifts. This 6-inch duty boot is trusted by leading public safety personnel worldwide and balances comfort, protection, and speed. The black boots shown feature a full-grain suede toe, reinforced stitching, and rugged 840D nylon panels for daily wear in active environments.
This updated ATAC 2.0 design uses a lighter-weight upper construction to reduce fatigue while maintaining durability. Inside, a full-length dual durometer Ortholite footbed works with the air-flow breathable tongue to keep your feet cooler and drier throughout the day. A visible YKK side zipper allows fast on and off while the lace system keeps the fit secure.
The Achilles heel flex zone improves range of motion without compromising support, especially when walking, running, or kneeling. Shock Mitigation System technology and a slip-resistant outsole help absorb impact on hard surfaces. Law enforcement officers, EMS teams, and security professionals rely on the ATAC 2.0 6-inch height for dependable ankle support and all-day comfort.
