A GSA/TAA-compliant commercial military boot built to uniform specifications, with a full-grain flesh-out leather upper, speed lacing with NATO hooks, and a stretch gusset.

Built to Specification
GSA/TAA compliance means the boot is sourced and built to federal procurement rules, and the coyote flesh-out leather and height are cut to uniform regulations, so it passes inspection without alteration.
Speed Lacing, Stretch Gusset
NATO speed-lace hooks lock the boot in seconds, and the stretch gusset tongue keeps grit out and the fit even across the instep through a long day of movement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the RKC202 uniform compliant?
Rocky lists the coyote 8" models as uniform compliant to DA-PAM 670-1 and DAFI 36-2903, and all of them as GSA/TAA compliant. Confirm current color and height requirements for your unit before ordering.
What kind of toe does the RKC202 have?
Rocky's commercial military boots are soft-toe with a fiberglass shank, which keeps them light and the toe box roomy. The C7 and C4T add a safety-stitch toe for durability, not impact protection.
Is the RKC202 waterproof?
These boots are built to breathe and drain rather than seal: unlined flesh-out leather or moisture-wicking linings, and on the S2V Predator, Sieve™ technology that circulates air in and drains water out. For a waterproof military boot, see the B.R.T. Brooks Rangetactical.
How should a military boot fit?
Order the size you wear in athletic shoes and try it with your issued sock; the NATO speed-lace hooks let you lock the heel back. The C4T runs a wide toe box; the C7 is a minimalist, closer fit.
What is the difference between the C7, C4T, and S2V Predator?
The C7 (RKC200 lined, RKC201 unlined) is Rocky's lightweight minimalist boot on a Vibram® stealth outsole with cement/strobel construction. The C4T (RKC199) adds a wide toe box and a 5mm-lug dual-density outsole. The S2V Predator (RKC202) is the heavy-duty boot: a high-walled Vibram® sole stitched to the upper, Roll-Stop ankle stability, and Sieve™ drainage.
How do I care for flesh-out leather?
Flesh-out (rough-side-out) leather is brushed clean rather than polished; let it dry away from direct heat and treat with a suede protector to shed light moisture.
