But what really sets these boots apart is the way they’re constructed: sturdy from top to bottom. Danner’s updated Terra Force technology consists of five components: an insole plate, midsole, internal and external shanks, and the new Danner TAC TFX outsole.
Every inch of a Stinger GTX boot is made to work hard for its wearer, with each design element serving a specific purpose. Stitching the upper to the midsole plate in the heel and forefoot provides added stability and durability. Strategically placed internal and external shanks work together to provide structural integrity and lateral and medial strength to create an incredibly lightweight, stable base.
Overall, the TFX platform’s rugged X-frame design and slight toe and heel wrap improve traction while reducing weight. At the very bottom of the boot, the new TAC TFX outsole also provides increased traction and lighter weight in addition to more comfort, a significant improvement upon traditional rubber soles.
Danner’s Stinger GTX series of duty boots are made to feel as comfortable and lightweight as an athletic shoe yet look and last like a patrol boot.
