Abstract Eight commercially available demining boots were tested for their ability to provide protection against the effects of surrogate anti-personnel blast mines. Boot performance was determined based on post-blast evaluation by a trauma surgeon of frangible surrogate lower legs (FSLLs). None of the conventional demining boots tested provided significant protection. Résumé Huit bottes de déminage disponible sur le marché ont été testées contre des substituts de mine terrestre anti-personnelle (AP) à effets de souffle. Les performances protectrices des bottes ont été déterminées selon l’evaluation post-essai d’un chirurgien traumatologue des modèles de la jambe inférieure cassable (MJIC). Aucune des bottes traditionelles testées n’a procuré une protection significative. <strong>DRDC</strong> <strong>Suffield</strong> TM 2005-009 i
