Maximum safety for Firefighters with proven reliability you can trust

You focus on what matters. Saving lives and fighting fires. Fire Hunter Xtreme ensures you come home safely at the end of the day.

Maximum protection certified for structural firefighting

Your safety is priority. Fire Hunter Xtreme keeps you protected from the heat and flames, offers the highest level of sole puncture resistance, protects your toes and protects you from dangerous fluids you can be exposed to on the job. Our durable European bullhide leather not only offers more protection, it offers more stability (no more boot flop over) and long term durability.

Protect your toes with our steel toe cap

The integrity of your feet, and especially your toes, is important. The Fire Hunter Xtreme's built-in steel toe offers maximum space in the toe box and protects your toes to the highest safety requirements.

Keep yourself safe from dangerous fluids thanks to CROSSTECH® technology

Your job can expose you to hazardous situations. The CROSSTECH® technology in the Fire Hunter Xtreme's inner lining ensures your boots are waterproof while also protecting you from potentially dangerous fluids such as blood, bodily fluids, and chemicals. Your feet stay dry, and you stay safe.

Stay on your feet with our durably slip-resistant sole

The Fire Hunter Xtreme sole has a long-standing record of safety and durability. The Micro Soft Light foam injected into the sole of the Fire Hunter Xtreme offers optimal shock absorption while also insulating you from hot and cold temperature extremes. A well insulated steel puncture plate offers the highest level of protection from any nasty surprises. The slip-resistant and highly heat-resistant sole will keep you safe and secure all day, every day.

Reliable comfort to endure the longest hours

You spend long hours on your feet performing one of the most physically demanding jobs in the world, make sure your feet don't feel like it.

Proven comfort with a stable fit and feel

As a firefighter, you see a lot of heat. You want you your boots to be strong and sturdy, yet comfortable. Fire Hunter Xtreme delivers everything you expect in fire boot performance and comfort. It has your back when the alarm goes off, bringing you reliable protection that also allows you to perform.

Better fit and more flexibility with the HAIX Ankle Flex System

Unlike other pull-on bunker boots that can feel loose and sloppy over time, the Fire Hunter Xtreme features our Ankle Flex System for a phenomenal fit and quick in-and-out capabilities. The interior offers a snug fit that supports your feet and ankles, so no more worries about twisting an ankle when running or jumping off the fire truck. The integrated flex zones surrounding your ankle guarantee more flexibility and freedom of movement when climbing stairs, kneeling, and driving.

Comfort fit with HAIX® cushioned insole

HAIX insoles keep your feet and your shoes fresher and more comfortable on the job. Our insoles absorb perspiration to keep your feet dry even in the most rigorous conditions. Added cushioning provides extra comfort. The microfiber design is lightweight, breathable, and machine washable. Replace occasionally to keep your shoes fresh and comfortable.

Breathable comfort with HAIX® Climate System

The Fire Hunter Xtreme ensures your feet stay dry and comfortable by utilizing special foams that absorb moisture from your feet between the inner lining and the leather. With each step, moist air expels, and fresh air enters through the vent holes at the top of the boot. This Climate System functions like an air conditioning system for your feet.

Your Fire Hunter Xtreme boots can be retreaded and refurbished with original manufacturer soles, parts and materials through our Extended Wear program. To freshen your boots, replacement insoles can be purchased online at haixusa.com.

For Fire Hunter Xtreme, HAIX always recommends to follow our NFPA 1851 guidelines for routine and advanced inspection. Our step by step guide is here: haix.com/us/nfpa/. To clean boot, brush away any loose dirt with a stiff boot brush. Wash boots with warm water and a small amount of mild dish soap. Air dry without forced heat. Once dry, polish boots with a silicone based polish. It is not recommended to use a wax base polish as it clogs the breathability of the leather.

The Fire Hunter Xtreme has a steel toe cap which exceeds NFPA and ASTM testing requirements.

Fire Hunter Xtreme measures 14" when measured from the floor to the lowest part of the top line of the boot.

Fire Hunter Xtreme runs about a half size larger than your normal athletic shoe size. The width runs true to size and comes in either a narrow, medium, or wide width.

Excellent Firefighter Boots
These boots are excellent for our line of duty. They are very durable and the the toe cap design is awesome. It always feels good when you can do your job in style. They fit very well and the pull-up straps are stitched with a purpose. I definitely recommend these boots because they are affordable and way better than the traditional "rubber duckies".

I bought my first pair back in 2013. They were at the end of their life after 7 years of full-time use. I probably could have gotten another year out of them if I really wanted to but when I saw the black friday sale I could not pass up in the deal. So he goes round 2! Thanks Haix!

I bought these boots (factory Seconds) & put them in service Aug 2013. I work in the oilfield as a Equipment operator for Baker Hughes Inc. I wear them 12 to 20 hours a day 6 days a week. I work in mud & water ankle deep at times. also exposure to mineral spirits, Hydrochloric Acid & other chemicals from time to time. They haven't leaked yet & are as comfortable as the day I got them. I used to get the Worx boot by Red Wing for $160 to $180 & could only get 6 months out of them because the waterproof liner would wear out in the heel. these have a superior design with a strip of leather in the heel to prevent that type of wear. They're easy to clean & the toe cap is very durable also unlike other leather boots ive seen . i'm about to buy a second pair so when I need repair i won't be without them. Love them Love them Love them.

I have been a faithful HAIX wearer since 2003, starting with the FIRE HUNTER structural boot. I am currently wearing my second pair of US RESCUE at my factory job. These are the most comfortable safety toe boots that I have ever worn. They are light weight and require virtually NO break in period. I also own a pair of the KENTUCKY that I wear for casual dress. Hopefully someday HAIX will release a gym shoe line, and my shoe shopping could all be done through HAIX. - Captain Mark T
