Winning agencies will each receive 10 free pairs of HAIX Black Eagle Tactical 20 boots in a choice of low (shoe), mid (6-inch), or high (8-inch) boots, depending on the agencies' footwear requirements. Officers participating in the wear test will be asked to complete a questionnaire, detailing their impressions of the boots and how well the boots served their duty needs.

Similar to most running shoes, HAIX Black Eagle Tactical 20s offer one width that easily adjusts to a variety of foot types. The boots feature Sun Reflect technology and Gore-Tex for weather resistance.
