The Atac 6 is a high-quality boot from Five Ten. They are designed for off-trail and hiking, but can also be used for ski touring or just general stomping around.
The Atac 6 is a mid-sized boot, coming in at about a full size bigger than the Merrellauthority. This means that these boots do not sacrifice much in the way of fit or feel to the terrain you are going into.
These boots are great for riders as well, as they have plenty of space in the toe and heel without being too big or too small. The textured upper offers great traction on any kind of terrain.
This boot is not intended to be worn all day, so quality enough to use on the trail but durable enough for daily use.

Side zip design
The Atac 6 is a beautifully constructed boot. It has a side zip design, which makes it look very elegant. The upper is leather with a rubber sole. This boot is designed for heavy use, as the leather can be damaged easily.
These boots are also narrow in width, which makes them hard to find a comfortable fit. Luckily, we have found our ideal size in these!
The 6 is an odd number for the height of the boot, but this doesn’t matter as it doesn’t effect how the boot sits on your foot.
Leather material
These boot are made out of leather, which is a high quality material. It is double lined to help retain heat and moisture! These boots are also rubberized around the outsoles to help prevent walking in slippery shoes.
This leather makes the boot very heavy, which is not good if you are wearing it for long periods of time. The side zip allows for more flexibility in when you need to put on shoes and walk out with shoes.
These boots are also long, so do not expect these to be a short-distance footbagger. This is a heavy footbagger that will require strong legs and feet to wear comfortably.
Metal hardware
These boots are lined with a durable metal. This makes it easier to click into place and provide good support throughout your long day of hiking, skiing, or walking.
This metal hardware is not replaceable, but it is nice to know that it is there. Without it, these boots would not be very functional!
6-panel construction
The inside of these shoes has six separate zones of foam to provide better cushioning. This is what makes them so comfortable! Each panel is connected by two thick glue lines to create a unified interior. This helps with comfort as the shoes do not stretch out or break down due to use.
These shoes are 6 inches tall at the top and longest foot section measured at 13 inches. They also have a 1-1/2 inch heal zone out which makes them good for either casual hiking or more serious climbing terrain.
Rubber sole
The Atac 6 Side Zip Boot is characterized by its rubber sole. This feature makes it more resistant to dirt and wear. The boot is also lightweight which makes it easy to move around in.
This feature adds a little flair to this boot which is why we named it the Atac 6 Side Zip Boot. It is also available in soft leather or steel toe versions. Having the rubber sole adds a nice texture to this boot which looks good on many feet.
Since this boot is lightweight, it is easy to move around in as well. You will not be reluctant to take these off because they are so durable. They will not last you very long unless you are walking on concrete all the time, but that should not be necessary!

Good grip on slippery surfaces
The Atac 6 Side Zip Boot is a good choice if you are looking for a rugged boot that works well in deep snow. This boot has durable side zip pouches that keep your needed items, such as winter gloves or athletic shoes, close by.
You can also place other items, such as your winter jacket, in the side zipper pouch so you have quick access to everything you need. The back of these boots has two Velcro straps that hold the heel down when walking, which is helpful if you are going skiing in the winter.
These boots are not recommended for daily wear because they are not the most comfortable.
Water resistant
As the name suggests, this boot is water resistant. This is thanks to the Vibrelli technology used in its construction. This technology reduces water penetration and ensures you are protected even when walking in heavy rains or during severe storms.
Vibrelli technology was first developed for military applications, where it was used to protect people from water and flooding. Since then, it has been used in a number of applications including engineering studies, design work, and manufacturing claims.
Since this technology does not have an easy name tag or logo to go by, it is hard to determine if a boot is waterproof. However, since this does not appear to be a factor when walking in snow or on ice, it would be ideal!
Perhaps the biggest downside to this tech is that you have to look for it.
Warm material
The Atac 6 Side Zip Boot is a beautiful, high quality boot. They are made from leather and fire-proofed synthetic material, making them extremely durable.
These boots are recommended for warm climates as they are resistant to water and stick better with heat. This boot is also known for being very fashionable booties.
Since this boot is mostly fashionable, you will need to keep up with wearing it, which can get annoying with such a high price tag. However, when purchased at a affordable price, you will feel like you got more than your money’s worth.
The Atac 6 Side Zip Boot is an absolute steal at $180! They are highly recommended if you are looking for a fashionable weatherproofed boot.
Long lasting smell elimination technology
When you first get these boots, they will smell really bad. It’s a chemical smell that is stuck in your nose and feet. This smell can last for a few days until you get a product or person out!
After the initial smell elimination treatment, it will never smell like anything else! This is because the treating company uses non-permanent solvents to remove the smell. These solvents break down over time, leaving only trace amounts of chemicals.
This is important to avoid any legal issues, as having traces of a chemical on your body can cause problems if someone wants to use it. These are highly valued by law enforcement and boot owners alike.
