Danner Boots has been a household name in the industry for decades. Their clean, stylish boots offer some of the greatest comfort and support in the tactical arena. Danner’s line of footwear has and continues to be one of the most popular and trusted brands that U.S. Patriot carries, with customers showing an unparalleled level of brand loyalty. From what we’ve seen online and in-store, once a customer finds a pair of Danners that works for them, that’s all they buy from that day forward. It’s with that sense of brand and product loyalty that we are proud to announce the newest Danner boot, exclusive to U.S. Patriot. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the Danner Resurgent.
Made for long marches and fast-moving patrols, the Resurgent helps you stay cool in dry, arid climates. The upper features Perspair® panels, an extremely breathable material woven with PU-coated nylon thread. Opanka stitching adds an extra layer of durability. The lightweight Resurge midsole returns energy with every step to keep you feeling light on your feet. The Vibram® oil-and-slip-resistant outsole has lugs that are designed for fast-paced agility and won’t collect dirt as you move.
The Danner Resurgent is Go for Launch
We can confess at U.S. Patriot that we’ve been looking forward to this one for a while. Our friends at Danner clued us in that they were working on a fresh new boot that offered the durability and construction that everyone has come to expect, while offering a more modern take on the look and style – and we knew we had to have it. If you’re looking for a piece of footwear that rises to the occasoin in any scenario, this is the boot for you. The trendy hexagonal pattern conceals the Perspair panels that promote airflow to keep you cool and comfortable in hot, arid environments. The sleek build and support this rugget boot offers has service members sprinting to checkouts online and in-store. These lightweight tactical boots feature an Opanka-stitched Vibram outsole with turf-eating pentagonal lugs that provide unbeatable grip on loose or rocky terrain. The DWR-coated rough-out leather upper is the key, though, constantly working to cycle air in and out of the boot, maintaining breathability while you maneuver the arena in these incredibly lightweight and slip-resistant boots.
Danner’s Commitment to Excellence
For nearly a century, Danner has crafted boots with purpose and integrity – footwear to equip those who choose the unlikely path, those who cut fresh trails, those who pioneer. Rooted in rugged terrain, Danner’s founder, Charles Danner, went west to pioneer footwear that could withstand the conditions the American logging industry faced. Like American trailblazers before him, Charles felt his manifest destiny would take him to heights never before seen. Although Danner initially was an outdoors footwear manufacturer, the company has continued its evolution of almost a full 100 years.
Recently Danner was the preferred footwear of Agent 007. In ‘No Time To Die’ Bond laced up a pair of limited-edition Danner Tanicus boots to take on Spectre in the conclusion of Craig’s film series. The U.S. Patriot faithful surely remember the Win the Boots that Bond Wears campaign from the fall of 2021, where we sent secret agent duffle bags stuffed with everything a growing Double-O could want, Tanicus included. If you’re new to Danner and would like to read more about the Tanicus, click here to read the product review on our blog.
Now Danner is pushing their evolution of military and tactical boots even further by introducing the Resurgent. Building off of the success of the Tachyon and Tanicus, Danner looked to take their successful boot construct and update the streamlined, minimal look they’re known for by adding in features and aesthetics that service members might be recognize by major shoe manufacturers. The subdued hexagon pattern helps to shield some of the best breathable and abrasion-resistant footwear technology the industry has to offer, all chiseled and set into form on top of one of the best chasis ever introduced into the tactical arena. Here are just some of the comments you can check out on USPatriot.com from some of Danner’s most avid and brand-loyal patrons:
How the Resurgent fits into the rest of the Danner Military Line
While the Resurgent is a game-changing piece of footwear, it’s not a product that’s been engineered for situations in extreme elements. We’ve previously written on the greatness of the Tanicus in the past, but with the recent addition it’s worth updating. Let’s take a look at what the consensus is on the benefits to each Danner product, from both customer and employee reviews.

Final Thoughts on the Resurgent
With its unbeatable grip, Opanka-stitched Vibram Resurgent outsole, and turf-eating pentagonal lugs, it will deliver comfort all day long while weighing in at 32 ounces. With an adequate amount of airflow, this Danner military boot is AR670-1 and AFI 36-2903 compliant and ready to wear with OCP uniforms.
It’s also worth noting that these boots pair well with Danner TFX Hot Weather Drymax Over-Calf Socks for those interested in advanced odor and moisture control in arid climates, and as always, if you need an extra set of laces we suggest the US Patriot 550 Paracord Boot Laces.
