Your questions, our honest answers

Missoula 2.1 runs about a half size larger than your normal shoe size. It also comes in either a medium or wide width.

The Missoula 2.1 is not waterproof, but the leather is hydrophobic and water resistant.

Missoula 2.1 does not have a safety toe in the boot.

The original Missoula boots are shorter in height, measuring at 8", while the Missoula 2.1 measures in at 9" tall. The Missoula was built more to U.S. Forest Service guidelines and are not certified NFPA 1977 for wildland firefighting. The Missoula 2.1 is built to exceed NFPA 1977 certification requirements and is certified to that standard.

HAIX always recommends to follow our NFPA 1851 guidelines for routine and advanced inspection. Our step by step guide is here. 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, fluff the nap with a boot brush. An impregnating spray made especially for suede can be used to finish, but it is optional.

Yes you can buy replacement parts for the Missoula 2.1 such as insoles and laces. You can find these items on our website on the accessories page. Missoula 2.1 is not able to be retreaded, but can be refurbished to extend the life of your boots. If you are looking to refurbish your Missoula 2.1 boots, check out the HAIX Extended Wear program.

Best of the Best, Super Comfy
Fire season 2021 was a success, I was using Wildland White's at the time. I asked my CalFire captain what he thought about his pair of HAIX and said they were the best. He wasn't wrong. Received them today.. Super happy with this purchase. Fire season 2022.. Let's do it.
