The Magnum Elite Spider is positioned to rival all competitors in the rankings as the lightest weight, most breathable and athletic tactical boot on the market. The Magnum Elite Spider is 20 percent lighter than other boots in its category (15.2 ounces for Elite Spider 5.0). Its lightweight construction suits SWAT operational missions by keeping officers light and agile on their feet. The boot's upper is constructed of combination fully polishable full-grain leather, lightweight action leather and highly breathable aero mesh. In place of a heavy steel shank, a non-metallic Stabilaflex lasting board ensures lightweight support underfoot. Durable composite, non-metallic hardware guarantees the boot's stealth nature, and also keeps weight down. Not only do integrated aeromesh panels in the upper allow the foot to breath, the proprietary Spidermesh inner lining is also highly breathable by design and keeps the foot dry despite hot and strenuous conditions. A moisture-wicking lining pulls moisture away from the foot, and a perforated foam backing allows for added breathability. The Elite Spider is built on a running shoe last making it cut out for running and physical training. The integrated tri-density compression-molded EVA midsole, a technology typically reserved for running footwear, provides support and comfort where needed, while a 3D Max Comfort Contoured Footbed cushions with 3 layers: comfort, support and shock absorption. A shoelace pouch conceals laces for safety and convenience. The boot's Vibram outsole, which exceeds international slip- and oil-resistance standards, is made up of the quietest rubber compound available, generating less noise and providing a higher level of grip than the industry standard. Magnum Elite Spider will be offered in three versions: Elite Spider 8.0 (an 8-inch boot), 5.0 (a mid-cut boot) and 3.0 (a low-cut boot). Sizes include men's 7-12, 13, 14 and 15.
