Dehner motor officer patrol boots

Dehner claim their motor patrol boot is 'the most popular patrol boot in the world' among 'the most demanding mounted officers.' And rightly so: the Dehner motor patrol boot really is stunning.

And Dehner is the standard CHP officers' motor boot.

Dehner offers two versions of their classic motor officer patrol boot:

• Dress-Patrol
• Bal-Laced Patrol

Dress Patrol

Dehner's Dress Patrol boot is made of a French calfskin upper with a double-thickness nitrene sole and a leather-lined Dehcord (synthetic leather) shaft. The Dress Patrol boot has extremely clean lines and a very formal appearance, and the fit around the instep is snug.

Bal-Laced Patrol

Dehner's Bal-Laced boot is identical to the Dress Patrol boot but with waxed lacing in the middle of the instep, which break the patrol boot's smooth lines, but also provides greater flexibility. Looks aside, a seasoned officer or rookie mounted cadet might choose this instep lacing option to accommodate a larger-than-average instep.

 

Dehner suggests that the laces should be tied with the knot in the middle rather than at the top, and the Dehner website offers these lacing directions:
