Danner USMC Rat Temperate Boots 15660X Mens 12 Tan USA Military Moisture-Wickin

OverviewThe Danner USMC Rat (Temperate) Boot, officially known as the Hot Weather / Temperate Marine Corps Combat Boot, is a rugged, high-performance boot specifically designed to meet the rigorous standards of the United States Marine Corps. The "RAT" stands for Rough All-Terrain, indicating its intended use. The "Temperate" variant (15660X) is designed for a wider range of conditions than its "Hot Weather" counterpart. This boot was a standard issue for Marines for many years and is still highly regarded and used by active personnel, veterans, and civilians in demanding outdoor professions. Key Specifications & Features (Model 15660X) Model Number: 15660X (Often found on the side of the boot) Nomenclature: Hot Weather / Temperate Marine Corps Combat Boot (Rough All-Terrain) Construction: Classic Stitch-Down construction. This is a hallmark of Danner's quality, making the boot exceptionally durable and, importantly, recraftable. Worn-out soles and footbeds can be replaced by Danner, extending the boot's life for years. Upper: Full-grain, rough-out tan nubuck leather and high-strength 1050 denier nylon. The rough-out leather (suede side out) is incredibly abrasion-resistant and scuffs/cuts are less visible. The nylon reduces weight and improves breathability. Lining: DRI-Lex® moisture-wicking lining. This helps pull sweat away from the foot, keeping feet drier and reducing blister risk. Outsole: Vibram® 13372 Montagna sole. This is a non-marking, oil-resistant lug sole reno
