Engineered for the modern warfighter, the Rocky® S2V Predator Military Boot (RKC072) in Coyote Brown is built to dominate in the harshest operational environments. Fully AR 670-1 compliant and approved for wear with all Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP) variations, this duty-ready combat boot combines premium flash- and water-resistant leather with rugged 1000D CORDURA® nylon. To ensure maximum tactical safety, the entire boot is specially coated for flame resistance, delivering superior durability and protection against high-heat exposures while you focus on the mission.
To keep you combat-effective in punishing conditions, the S2V Predator utilizes advanced S2V Sieve™ technology that actively circulates air in and rapidly pumps water out, drastically reducing drying time after deep water crossings. Uncompromising traction is guaranteed by the high-walled Vibram® outsole, while the proprietary Roll-Stop Ankle Stability™ system drastically reduces the risk of joint injuries on unpredictable terrain. Complete with a moisture-wicking Dri-Lex® lining, a supportive fiberglass shank, and a shock-absorbing Air-Port™ footbed, this GSA/TAA compliant boot ensures lasting comfort and unyielding structural integrity.

Sizing & Fit Guide:
-
Unisex Sizing: The S2V Predator is manufactured in Men's sizing. For female service members, simply subtract two (2) full sizes from your current women's shoe size to find the correct fit (e.g., a Women’s 9 should order a Men’s 7).
-
Fit Profile: Spacious & Stable. Built on the legendary S2V last, this boot offers a generous toe box to easily accommodate foot swelling during heavy rucking, while securely locking the heel and ankle into place.
-
Break-in Period: Moderate. Due to the heavy-duty flash-resistant leather and robust ankle support system, we recommend wearing these boots for a few light duty days before taking them on a long-distance ruck march.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Is the Rocky S2V Predator (RKC072) authorized for wear with the OCP uniform?
Yes. The RKC072 model strictly adheres to all visual and material specifications outlined in AR 670-1 and AFI 36-2903. It is fully approved for active-duty wear with all applicable Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP) uniform variations.
-
How does the Advanced S2V Sieve™ technology work?
Unlike waterproof boots that can trap water inside if submerged over the collar, the S2V Sieve™ is engineered for rapid water expulsion. As you walk, the mechanical action of your stride actively pumps water out through specialized drainage vents while simultaneously pulling fresh air in, ensuring your boots dry out significantly faster after river crossings or deep mud.
-
Is this model (RKC072) Berry Compliant?
No. The RKC072 S2V Predator is GSA/TAA Compliant, meaning it is manufactured in an authorized trade-partner nation. While it is fully AR 670-1 compliant and approved for soldier purchase, it does not meet the "100% Made in the USA" requirement for Berry Compliance. If your specific unit strictly mandates Berry Compliant footwear, we recommend the Rocky S2V (RKC050).
-
What makes the Roll-Stop Ankle Stability™ system effective?
The Roll-Stop Ankle Stability™ system utilizes a unique, slightly rounded geometric design on the high-walled Vibram outsole. Instead of a hard, 90-degree edge that can catch on rocks and violently twist the ankle, this proprietary design allows your foot to naturally "roll" over uneven obstacles, significantly reducing the risk of sprains and joint injuries in the field.
