Nike SFB Field 2 Boot REVIEW + ON-FEET
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 08. 2024
- An update to the popular SFB Field, the Nike SF Field 2 Boot borrows more heavily from military design than Nike's typical sneaker lineup. If you're looking to draw on these kinds of looks without looking like an Airsoft enthusiast, this might be the shoe for you.

![【R22】Applying Leather Luster to Police Boots ‣ Nike SFB Field [4K]](/img/n.gif)
We actually use these boots in the army except they’re the desert tan version. These are genuine military boots and are regarded as very comfortable and mildly durable. My bct captain and two of my act instructors wore these
Did you ever hear someone comparing Adidas GSG 9.2 with Nike SFB Field 2 boots? Probably someone who used both might know the difference, but i never came across a comparison between the two.
Do you know if Nike is selling these shoes outside the US? I can't find them on Nike app and i am in the UK.
I’m looking to get these as I work in ems and want something comfortable but not too bulky. Thanks for this comment I’ve been looking for a comfort/durability rating from someone who uses them on the job
On a list of USAF boots they are 3rd but really fit the requirements well. Edit: and I was looking for modern standard issue boots and found these on that list and being a life long Nike fan I thought these were perfect at least the B1 versions.
Are they steel toe?
Antwon - these ARE military boots. Not just a military boot with ‘a Nike twist.’ Some US armed forces ACTUALLY wear these (or a military contract ‘version’ of these). My brother in law is entering the US Air Force as an officer, and was actually made to purchase the Nike SFB boot as they’re standard.
yes but the price does not match the quality... For that money you can get a gore-tex boots
Mirosław Irzyk not every environment requires goretex
Of course they would have their attack dogs wearing their Saturn symbol brand . So clear to see what's going on there .
Yeah they’re literally military approved boots like Danner etc. These aren’t Nike making a “military-esque” boot, Nike straight up made a boot for the military for that defence contract dollar.
@@mirosawirzyk5247 often you don't want gore-tex boots, because once they are wet it's take a very long time to get them try by the bonfire compared to normal leather ones
Adidas, Nike, under armor and many others make actual military boots that are worn by the military. With the performance and quality you are looking for every season. So you can find past year season for cheap
Even the budget brand military boots are comfortable and waterproof. Style not so much but they get the job done.
Air Force & Marines wear Nike boots :P
i won't wear it unless i had to be outside in a warzone for a few week....
I love the Nike and under amour boots. Oakleys has a good pair that I’ve seen many ppl wear but the way I walk I’d wear them down too fast.
As a s.f i wear solomon quest gtx 4x the best of best
kudos to someone successfully accomplishing what i have been trying for years: somewhat maturely displaying legos
the midpart of the sole is to grip the rope when climbing on one. It's perfectly designed.
I recently just received a pair of these (specifically the goretex variant since I often trudge through a lot of snow during the winter) and I really like them so far. This is my first real piece of “techwear” footwear and I’ve been really drawn to the more military-driven side of it so these were a pretty easy choice for me to make. They are relatively comfortable provided you get the right size and are far more stylish compared to just a standard surplus boot imo.
How they’ve hold up so far?
bruh says "now" like he aint only got techwear
Wow you gotta call out my wardrobe like that
hi giorno
Also, the middle grip - and the reason they wrap the insole is for rope climbing. These are military approved and are commonly worn on casual days or civilian contractors.
Antler talking for 10 minutes and 5 seconds trying to justify his $200 military boot purchase
I have a question that is the true price $ 200
For real me too
no way. i found your channel yesterday, bought these boots and now you made a video about them.
A man of culture I see 😏
Found these in a Ross today for $70, might have to go back and get them. Thanks for the review!
Glad you found it useful! $70 is a steal, I'm still wearing mine a bunch
I found the them for the same price today at Ross winning 🤣😂
@@keenoncallins3995 I found them for the same price at Burlington.
@@Immortal_Toxin I love em bro they are comfortable and light weight
Got those for $40 at a thrift shop, clean and unused, the only "issue" was a gummy stain that was removable with an xacto knife and some spit so to speak.
Also i love the riggidity of boots. Get something a tad bigger and make up for it with either wool socks or some such. Also found out all those fancy supports in soles affect your arch support as you get older. (Cuz muscles and stuff that normally get stronger with use, aren't cuz they're being supported.)
Im in the US military And the coyote brown color is allowed in regulation and they’re pretty popular. I like these for marching/rucking and just everyday wear, would recommend.
I personally have Nike SFB Gen 2 as I was going for something more breathable and I absolutely love them.
The insole that follows is not the best, I switched mine out for the 5.11 Ortholite insole that I had already broken in from another pair of boots. This mix made for the perfect every day shoe/boot that I have very few complaints about.
I love the design on the Field 2 but the more rigid and less breathable upper parts made me go with the Gen 2 instead as I prefer sticking to one pair of shoe at a time so I went with something that could be used all year around.
Sadly the Gen 2 is near impossible to get in some countries within the EU so I was lucky to get some off of Ebay from the US in my size.
Pairing some of these with Enfin Leve bottoms(I have the lantz cargo pants) makes for an excellent outfit even with just a tshirt on.
do a video styling these please, i love them
If you want to know how to style this stuff wait until I do a video. I’m bringing back my swag talk vids next year
Buying two pair today should have a vid up in a about two weeks when they come
@@chriswash12 I'll watch it fo sho
These are a great boot. I’ve used both the Gore-Tex for winter training and the normal 6” and 8” for 3 seasons.
Seems to me Nike have given these a slightly wider foot bed - fantastic fit.
I don’t think these were really designed as sneakers or for sneaker people, these were made for practical purposes and the older models were even issued in the us military, I have a pair and they’re my go to for outdoors, great video btw!
Actually issued boots of the past 15 years such as older Altamas or McRae are notoriously long wearing over import and or individual purchased authorized footwear in the US forces. Vibram soles, Cordura 1000, Nomex, Urethane midsoles, cattlehide combine to make for a tough pair that will outwear boots like the SFB or equivalent.
Jungle boots look quite cool, genuine functionality and obviously millitary themed
As someone who served. Sadly your hypothesis on the quality is wrong. Those surplus boots you showed were „floppy“ because they have a different design with no leather in the collar. Those last a couple of years, the Nikes usually months. Their quality is heavily worse then standard issue products, as these aren‘t tested by anyone but Nike themselves.
Who checking this out during Coronavirus?
There was life before COVID?
Im here in 2021 still with the virus
I wish sneaker brands would dabble into the boot genre more. Knee high sneaker boots would be interesting concepts
Nike with the Sf Af1 and the Sf Af1 Highs are a decent start
@@-d-939 yeah but i'm talking rain boots high level when it comes to the shoes. The straps on this shoes are cool tho, having this as a way to secure fit in looks with pants would really give an Akira like futuristic look to an outfit :)
@@Benloadeon Good point. Maybe acronym will take a crack at it and then mainstream brands will try to follow.
Are these waterproof? Trying to get some for a field ex but I can't tell if Nike makes any waterproof SFBs in Coyote
I don't know about you but the 2007 model bundeswehr surplus boots are mad comfortable with a full top grain leather lining and full grain upper
Hard to justify buying this kind of boot when you could get Bates GX-8 GTX or even the Shock 8".
yes. bates has more practically durable and functional boots. nike are more fashion aesthetic branding.
love my bates boots, best military boot I have ever worn, hands down (also was in BR2047, so there's that)
@@bjamofficial they say bates, are getting damaged too easy on amazon, is it true? are they fakes or smth?
@@quackgoestheduck5477 that can't be right, they are literally mil spec boots, they are amazing and comfortable, plus now iconic since ryan gosling wore them as K in BR2049
Salomon forces are the best. If your department allows you to skip the polish.
It cool to see a review of these from someone who isn’t in the military/ police officer. They tend to have very different needs for their boots than us civilians lol. I’ve been looking at the Gore-Tex version for winter, was there a reason you went for these instead? I do prefer the styling on these more, the gtx version gives me monster hunter niblesnarf armor vibes.
Now you just need the Adidas GSG9's to pair with Adidas-outfits in contrast to the Nike-outfits.
the adidas boot are on a other level of quality...
@@mirosawirzyk5247 Are they really that nice? I've wanted a pair for a long time now.
I'd recommend looking into the doc martens combs tech they're made it ripstock nylon and suede so are cheaper than most docs, they're quite comfortable when you've worn them in and they've got a variety of ways of putting them on and cool straps as well.
Ant! You should cop a pair of SF AF1 highs. They actually go surprisingly well with techwear fits.
They're nice but none of the hundred colorways match Nike quality and they're hardly comfortable. The breathable holes make them less practical as winter boots, and to top it off on Amazon they marked all of them as "Women Nike" even though they're in men's sizes. They kind of fixed the quality ripping issue with the high Baroque Brown version but I have it so I can definitely say that comfort was sacrificed. The material causes your socks to go down (somehow) and your pants to make you uncomfortable over long periods, and they are much more restrictive. The boot will likely still fall apart just as fast as the other ones too.
I wear the Gore Tex pair, wore them on an excursion to the coast of the UK last winter, very good pair of boots.
Hi there, where can i get the gore-tex ones??? thnx
I'm surprised how many awesome boot models Nike makes. I've had a pair of Lunar Forces for 2 years and I bought a Nike x Undercover React recently and they are just great. I might try to get a pair of these at some point.
Do u think that they will work great for hiking?
These Nike boots are slick but for the price they should have inter grated at least some sort of air technology or whatever Nike uses for comfor.
Although the laces run over the forefoot it is meant to keep your heel firmly in place.
What do you think of adidas gsg9.2’s?
Great review Antwon and very informative. What do you think about the Nike SFB 2 8" GTX as compared to the boots that you have just reviewed?
😂 as someone who wears military boots daily, these are supposed to be extremely comfortable
THEY FINALLY CAME OUT WITH THE BF1’s WHICH DOES HAVE SNEAKERHEAD TECH SUCH AS AIR PODS, AND IS CERITFIED FOR ARMY
i think these look really great. i already have a lot of militaria/military looking pieces so not for me but i think paired with more futuristic and athletic looks will be awesome.
Solid review, copping the goretex versions
I casually check out your vids, supporting note British CZcamsrs over the more popular US Sneakerhead type vids.
Plus I like your details tech spec analysis. While I collect sneakers, some high end pieces, and mainly Jordans, I think your definitely getting me into these tech wear and footwear.
At the least I cop the ACG gear like the dog maintain ACG terra globe with a day React as well!
These boots are such as better options to the super high AF1 boot...though I am moving towards back to a 1 Timberland!
Keep up the good work mate.
Think I might even return my Yeezy dessert boot over these Nike Army boot.
5:30
holy moly
I've got my eye on the Nike Rhyodomo boots, not as high as the SFB's and more streetwear inspired but is still think they fit into the techwear ethos.
Nice review.
Dear Ant!
THank you sooo much for this review. I’m right now looking into getting a pair of these…
I’m unsure with the sizing, how do these compare to something like Adidas Ultraboosts?
Been waiting for this video
These are actual law enforcement & military boots. You reviewed them from a fashion viewpoint.
Im looking at gettings these but I saw there is a gore tex version of them are those worth the extra 5 dollars or is there a downside, I cant decide?
you should check out BATES boots, its the brand i go to for this kind of look with my boots : )
I have the older versions of these and I love them. As soon as autumn swings around I'm in these very often.
Does it have steel toe?
I have both the SF1 tall styles and i love them. these look great too, but very similar to my motorbike style boots, so probably not going to get them, but if i didn't have my other boots i would probably grab them too. The SF1s i have are super comfortable though, really soft sole when standing. maybe they downgraded what they are using for the next model?
Would love a styling video for boots like these
Posting a vid for that in a couple weeks
Great review, good points, on point comparisons, and your narrative makes complete sense. Keep up the great work!
Are the steel toed ?
These ran small for me, I’m usually a 14 but got these in 15 and they’re perfect
Rocky C4T or Ry008 are absolutely amazing in black. I have had 2 pairs in tan when I was in the army and currently rock black ones out and about. Best friend rocks the Nike boots he's always had them in the army as well. I've tried them they're both solid options.
U.S. Navy wears these; saw some dudes buying em at a patriot tactical store in a px on base.
well they are comfortable compare to shit out there...
Have these been discontinued? The links in the description take me to the Nike website but it says the page can't be found. Same thing if I search for SFB on their site.
ive had the brown nike sfb for a few years now , picked them up at nike london after talking to the guy about shia labeouf wearing them
I'm here for something to trudge off trail in the Washington wilderness with, among bogs, swamps, mud, and able to sprint if needed. Are these practical boots?
Buy a wading boots and a pair of USGI Gore tex boots
Corcoran Jump boots with side zip are my everyday boots when I’m gonna do the boot thing super comfortable (surprisingly) also Canadian parade boots. I’m mostly an adidas man but venturing into Nike land some of those tech packs are 🔥.
I think it's kinda odd that these aren't water-proof. I want to wear my boots in rough conditions like a rainy day or in winter, so these are a easy pass for me.
They make a Gore Tex version of these you know
I’ve been heavily considering these for airsoft and some future outfits, your video was super helpful in selling me on them thank you!!
Glad I could help!
I’m thinking about getting them for airsoft too were they worth it?
And which model did you buy?
Can I go to gym with this boots?
Great video! What do you think of the Dr Martens Combs Tech? Or just the regular Combs?
Looking good but I do prefer the AF1 SF1 hi top silhouettes over these...
They're nice but none of the hundred colorways match Nike quality and they're hardly comfortable. The breathable holes make them less practical as winter boots, and to top it off on Amazon they marked all of them as "Women Nike" even though they're in men's sizes.
The comment about the size is completely wrong!! There are not bigger, they are smaller! I followed your advise and got them half a size smaller and it’s impossible to even get my foot in. Now I have to try to sell them. So be aware!
How much is this and where to buy?
190 from Nike
Nice video. Thank you. Just ordered some
I have the wide toed version. I'm satisfied with it but next time I'll get a slimmer version because the wide toed version are a tad big.
Have a look at Danner Tachyon's if you're looking for an ultra light and sneaker level comfort boot.
Nike says they designed the boots using the Nike "Free" technology, FWIW. I really like the Nike Free line, super flexible and comfy shoes
Good job I've been looking for Nike boots styled like this...👍🏾
Seeing the laces not tucked into the boots is triggering me
If you’re buying actual combat boots, go for saloman, they’re very comfortable and hella durable
>Videos about styling these
Bruh they L I T E R A L L Y go with any techwear pants. Extremely easy to style.
Buying this and the regular Nike ACG boots for the winter
everyone has told me to go true to size on these
Nice video mate. I was about to get Danners but the import fees are a killer. Will check ck out now.
No these boots are the worst in actual combat the only time people wear these boots in the army is when you're at Garrison do not use these boots. I think they even stopped selling them at clothing and sales.
May I ask how so? Do they fall apart easily or are they just not comfortable?
I wear Bates GX8 GoreTex and they're amazing. They really fit the techwear style imo.
I agree ...
Have you seen the Nike React Ianga? It's on the website. It looks pretty interesting, hopefully you review them one day
I love the look of these and they look similar to my nike (acg?) waterproof winter boots. Especially on the sole. If people are looking for a cleaner future look with their techwear I would suggest looking at motorcycle and or ski/snowboarding type winter boots. What's wrong with the cosplay style of techwear man?
1/2 size down on a Nike? Man that's scary every Nike I've ever own I have to go 1/2 size up. I wanna get one of these for work and the only way is by order but the sizing is throwing me off 🤕
Honestly prefer the lack of new cushion tech since they're often too soft for boots. The last thing we want in a pair of boots is for them to start bottoming out or us to fall over when trying to balance ourselves cause it compressed when we put out weight on it. These a tough, durable and suit the purpose well, they shouldn't have to pander to sneakerheads just cause they're Nike's. Only way I would accept advanced cushion tech is if they put a thin layer of it under the foot above the midsole sort of like a second insole.
i fail to see the mesh you are referring to. the nike website description says it’s leather and nylon canvas upper. if you are referring to the holes on the leather that’s either design or for ventilation but that’s not mesh fabric.
What pants are you wearing in the video? Thanks
Hello Antwon. Could you kindly tell me what kind of pants were you wearing in the shots with you wearing the boots? I've been wanting to buy something like that. Thank you.
I have the Nike SFB Gen 2 but I think I’m gonna buy these as well
Goddamit! No lady sizes! *shakes fist at Nike*.
I'm a Y-3 sneakerboot fan, so I think these are beaut.
How do you feel these would perform in wet weather / snow?
That sucks, surprised they don't have a proper size range.
Based on the outsole I imagine they'd be better than most shoes but not had a chance to test them properly yet, it's barely rained in the last month or two over here
@@ThisIsAntwon Let us know if there's any snow coming soon, also interested to know how the sole grips.... Nice review, keep us posted.
@@ThisIsAntwon have a pair of gen 1 which are the suede not the leather and they suck for wet weather (although they where designed for Afghanistan)
I recently bought the Dr. Martens Combs II Tech Utility Boots, looks nice and comfy!
I’m Deeeeerek and I can Sing HIGH, like thiiiis! And I can’t sing HiiiiiIIIIiiiiiigggghh!
Wow, nice review. I have no idea Nike made tactical boots!
Also, so British folks pronounce the word “aesthetic” with a hard T?
Hi, I recently bought a nike sfb field-2 8 coyote in an online store in Texas for 59.99 bucks. my shoes are original, with a box, good quality. but they cost $175 on Nike's website. Can you explain how that is?
Saw this video, bought them, and got them today, Thank you washing machine
Antwon, did you ever hear someone comparing Adidas GSG 9.2 with Nike SFB Field 2 boots? Probably someone who used both might know the difference, but i never came across a comparison between the two.
ok, the boots are great, I own a pair, everything good, but what about the laces, man? they keep untying no matter what🧐
Because they are military boots your supposed to use the military way to tie them
@@spamchappo2895 😯
Helpful review! Could you by chance provide a link to those black packs modeled in the video?
I bought a pair before I saw this video. Now I'm happy I purchased, thinking about buying a second pair. Cheers
Any Nike steel toe or composite boots?
which sizing?
