Built by the original designers behind the Altama Maritime Assault Boot, the OTB Men's Pirata Elite Boot is designed to move seamlessly between subsurface, above-waterline, and land-based operations. A full-length Fusion Plate adds rigidity through the shank for tasks like climbing caving ladders, while the lightweight Future Foam midsole delivers a running shoe-like feel that still supports the weight of a full ruck. The Grip Stik outsole holds onto wet surfaces with exceptional traction, and a removable water-friendly footbed with drain holes keeps things from staying waterlogged. Knit sock construction seals out sand during beach operations, while mesh-backed drain ports and a quick-dry lining help these boots recover fast after exiting the water. A no-sew, eyelet-free upper avoids pressure points when wearing dive fins. These boots run true to size, though a wide width with the footbed removed is recommended for dry suit use.
