HAIX® North America Introduces a Feature-Rich Boot for All Firefighters

Lexington, Kentucky (Jan. 18): HAIX® is introducing a new boot to their structural fire boot lineup—one that is priced to appeal to all firefighters, whether volunteer, professional or still in training. The Fire Hunter® Pro is the boot at the crossroads of quality and affordability.

“Our goal is to get HAIX® boots on the feet of every first responder,” says Josef Teibl, National Sales Director for HAIX® North America. “The Fire Hunter® Pro will help us accomplish that. It’s a high-quality boot that’s affordably priced to help firefighters make the switch from rubber to leather without sacrificing protection or comfort.”

The Fire Hunter® Pro is made of the highest quality, water resistant, and durable European bullhide leather. HAIX® built the Fire Hunter Pro on an athletic sole, designed to be both lightweight and responsive. HAIX® added ankle flexion to reduce pressure points, their proprietary climate system and their new cushioned insole, for comfort right out of the box.
