Overview of the Magnum Storm 8" Desert Tan Tactical Boots | CM85005M-T-M
You need boots that move fast, protect well, and last. Magnum Storm 8 inch Desert Tan Military Tactical Side-Zip Waterproof Boots give you that balance. Premium suede leather and breathable ballistic nylon handle heat, sand, and city streets. A waterproof membrane keeps your feet dry when the weather turns. The slip and oil resistant rubber outsole grips on wet tile, dusty hangars, and rocky trails.
Long shifts feel shorter with a full-length EVA midsole and a removable memory foam insole that absorb shock. Speed lace hooks and a YKK side zipper get you mission ready in seconds. Reinforced heel and toe zones add structure without extra bulk. Each boot weighs about 23 ounces in men’s size 9, so you stay quick on your feet.
Since 1982, Magnum has built dependable duty footwear for law enforcement, military, and EMS. Officers wear Storm on patrol. Techs trust it on tarmacs. Hikers grab it for weekend miles. If you want one pair that covers work and off-duty, Storm delivers. Mention CM85005M-T-M when ordering or requesting replacement parts.
