This American boot just kicked your ass back to Russia!
The Soldier stomping on a Heavy

The Mantreads are a community-created secondary weapon for the Soldier. They are a pair of dark brown tanker boots.

When equipped, the Mantreads reduce the knockback received from damaging weapons (including airblast) by 75%; this does not apply to the player's own weapons and so does not impede rocket jumping. In addition, whenever the player lands on an enemy, if the fall was long enough to cause fall damage to the player, the enemy is dealt 10 damage plus triple the fall damage the player would normally have received, and the player takes no fall damage. The fall does not have to occur from rocket jumping in order to deliver damage. Successfully landing on an enemy is indicated by a unique sound, a unique particle effect, and the Soldier's view appearing to shake. The Mantreads do not take effect if the player lands on a building. While blast jumping, air control is increased by 200%.
