Founded in 1999 by Terry Mackness, Original S.W.A.T. developed tactical footwear with an emphasis on long-wear comfort. Instead of forcing the foot into stiff leather, the brand borrowed from athletic shoe design, building footwear around lasts that fit naturally. The result became their well-known no break-in period.
The Original S.W.A.T. lineup includes footwear made for law enforcement, military, security, and other uniformed professionals. The Alpha Series features an athletic, lightweight design. The Alpha Freedom line adds hands-free on-off convenience for quick donning. The Chase series features winter siping, slip and oil resistance, plus waterproof and insulated builds for demanding conditions. The Classic line maintains a sharp, inspection-ready appearance for formal duty settings.
Original S.W.A.T. tactical boots share practical touches such as YKK side zips, slip-resistant outsoles, nylon shanks, and moisture-wicking linings. The lineup also includes safety-rated models with composite toe protection.
The selection at GRITR Sports includes Original S.W.A.T. duty boots, tactical footwear, and related styles from across the brand's lineup.
