Zamberlan 5020 Extinguisher WLF Wildland Firefighting Boot - Men's

The 5020 Extinguisher WLF is Zamberlan's first ever Wildland Firefighting boot designed from the ground-up to be NFPA compliant while also being built for the mountain. Built for the rigors of today's Wildland Firefighter, the Extinguisher is remarkably lightweight, extremely comfortable, and completely fire-resistant.

In particular, the 8in tall Extinguisher is designed to prevent sole delamination, the most common and serious problem for Wildland Firefighting boots. While experts at Norwegian Welting, Zamberlan knows that a Norwegian Welt will not work for WLF applications and so designed the Extinguisher with a stitched sole that cannot delaminate
