Metro Air: Cushioned Side-Zip Boots

The Metro Air boots use air technology for cushioning on hard surfaces through a long shift. The Metro Air 9 Side-Zip is built with only non-metallic components, which makes it a good pick for airport posts. The Metro Air 5 Side-Zip gives the same air cushioning in a shorter boot with the Metro waffle lug outsole for traction.
