Not only a better solution...but the new standard.

The next generation of Black Diamond Footwear starts here. The exceptional new X2 Boot combines the latest in footwear technology and fire industry innovations in a structural firefighting boot that truly breaks new ground. Unique new features and old-fashioned quality construction come together to improve fit, durability, protection, comfort, speed...and even looks. But most important-the new X2 will keep you safer.

Improved CROSSTECH© Moisture Barrier: Black Diamond Footwear takes W.L. Gore's most advanced moisture barrier for structural fire boots, and makes it even better with an advanced Omaha lining. It's a superior mil-spec combination originally developed for aggressive military applications-marrying the ultra waterproof/breathable barrier protection and performance of the CROSSTECH© membrane with the advanced moisture-wicking and smooth comfort of the Omaha lining. Plus Black Diamond uses traditional stitch-down Strobel construction to fasten the lining securely into place to prevent bunching and pull-out. We don't think you'll find a more comfortable combination anywhere.

More secure fit from heel to toe: A unique three-point heel locking system has a rubber molded heel lock that cradles the foot to keep the heel positioned correctly, and held securely in place. The system effectively ends slippage, preventing dangerous ankle roll and uncomfortable abrasion-problems that can reduce a firefighter's effectiveness, or worse, over a long, active day. And because it adds to the life expectancy of the boot, it helps make this boot a better investment than boots that may cost less initially...but simply don't last.

More comfort underfoot: The unique Ortholite© Tri-density, multi-fit, removable comfort footbed has a breathable, anti-fungal rubber compound for odor prevention and a TPU heel cradle for shock absorption and all-around comfort. But the X2 does even more to make your feet feel welcome. The Ortholite footbed is also "Multi-Fit". It includes two extra "filler layers" that can be removed or replaced to internally "change" the width-from Medium to Wide, or even Extra-Wide. All with the same boot. No matter which width you normally wear, this boot simply fits. Even if your feet naturally swell during a long day in the heat, or from one day to the next. Or if a change of socks makes a change you can feel, these exceptional boots can be adjusted for the most comfortable fit. How?

More speed: Integrated pull straps are built right into the sides of the heavy leather collar. They provide a quick sure grip for fast donning. There are no sewn-on leather or nylon web pull straps to eventually pull out or break...and nothing to flop around, get dirty, or become uncomfortably bunched up in the top of your boot. These boots are flexible where they need to be, but the construction of the durable leather and fusion shaft and built-in shin guards is designed to keep them standing upright for more support when you're in them, and easier donning when you're not-but need to be, fast. Plus they have a unique built-in boot jack that makes doffing almost laughably easy, even when wet.

 Features:

• The Calf-Fit System: allows for maximum comfort and fit
• Integrated Pull-On System: Reinforced integral loop provides a fast, sure grip, eliminates broken loops,
• Comfort Shin Guard: Thick FR leather, padded for maximum protection from the steady pressure of a ladder rung, sudden impact, and abrasion; form-fitting segments conform to the shape of your shin with minimal extra bulk
• FireTuff Leather Upper: genuine, heavyweight f ire retardant, FireTuff leather
• Fusion Upper: a powerful blend of solution dyed Nomex / Kevlar and Teflon F.P.P.E. Combines the durability of Nomex, the strength and abrasion resistance of Kevlar and water resistance of patented Teflon F.P.P.E.
• 3-Point Heel Lock System: A unique molded rubber heel lock cradles the foot and locks the heel securely in place, correctly positioned to prevent ankle roll and protect against side impact. Whether you're walking, running, climbing, or crawling, this important feature of the X2 Boot ensures a better fit, more comfort, and a genuine advance in safety.
• CROSSTECH© membrane with Omaha lining: a high-performance wicking fabric originally developed for aggressive military applications. It makes a superior functional and protective lining for firefighting.
• Stitch-down lining construction: 'Strobel' stitched down construction provides optimum fit; prevents liner pullout
• 3M Scotchlite Reflective Material: flame-resistant, fluorescent, and reflective material for added viability
• Ortholite Footbed: Tri-density, multi-fit, removable footbed with breathable, anti-fungal, TPU heel cradle for shock absorption, odor prevention, and all-around comfort,
