New Boots

[kilo delta]

Having viewed all those boots....I've got to say that I'm likin' C9G's the best! Probably not the best choice for a 30k hike over mountainous and muddy terrain in sub zero conditions....but with pins like those .....who cares!

Chances are if she's wearin em for that 30k hike, she's likely being piggy backed ... or goin barefoot after a bit. LOL!

if its a beach hike she'll go barefoot no doubt, i have 2 pairs of assault boots, one pair for general usage and one for operational/base side of things...

i'm loathe to take my boots off, even now sat here comfortably in my general usage pair, drinking lager and looking for a new parachute for the weekends

anyone got a pair of Doc Martens? if so are they a good general walking boot?

I find that the soles of DMs are too inflexible for walking any great distance without becoming uncomfortable. Same goes for Timberlands which were always more about fashion I think. Steel capped DMs are very good in an industrial environment though

Bots of choice: German army standard issue.

Got to keep my two pairs after the service, so why not use them?

These Meindl's have already lasted me several years and I can't see them wearing out - they were comfortable right out of the box.
But for snow and mud I feel better in my Hunting Boots

Exactly what I have,very nice to wear and they protect my old feet.:USA-flag:
