The new line combines comfort with traction and protection against the harsh elements that patrol and tactical officers encounter on the job. Wellco incorporated GORE-TEX footwear fabric into the boot’s construction to provide waterproof, breathable protection. This fabric keeps feet drier and more comfortable by preventing exposure to rain and inclement weather while allowing moisture vapor (perspiration) to escape.
