Wildland firefighters are subjected to one of the most demanding jobs in the world, requiring both physical and mental toughness to face the demanding and ever-changing conditions encountered with wildland firefighting.

The HAIX® Missoula 2.1 NFPA hiking boots for wildland firefighting were built to meet the exacting demands of the wildland firefighter. The durable tough European split bull leather is water-resistant, hydrophobic and breathable to keep your feet as comfortable as possible. The lighter weight of the Missoula 2.1 helps to alleviate leg fatigue while on long hikes and rugged terrain all day, and night long.
The newly designed, highly heat-resistant Vibram® anti-slip sole will give you greater footholds on whatever terrain you have to face. The special design of the heel offers strong footholds on even the most steep and uneven terrain while the sturdy and stable midsole ensures you won’t feel every rock and stone as you hike. At the end of a long day, the built-in boot jack at the rear of the boot makes it easier for you to get your boots off.
The HAIX two-zone lacing system allows you to adjust the tension on the upper and the lower part of the boot. This two-zone lacing system allows you to adjust the HAIX Missoula 2.1 wildland boot for a fit tailored just for you and the terrain where you are working. For mainly downward descents, tighten the upper and the lowers evenly to prevent your foot from sliding forward into the boot. For mainly upward ascents, leave the upper a little looser so it does not constrict your shin. The two-zone lacing also provides better ankle support to help prevent potential ankle injuries. The new roller ball eyelets on the lower part of the lacing system offers minimal friction, reducing wear and tear on the flame-resistant Nomex® laces.
