New boots
 

I've been wearing the same pair of Bates (http://www.shoeshackonline.com/site/...te=google_base) for 3 years and they're starting to fall apart. If these were any other boots I would just go out and buy another pair, but these took a goddamn year to break in and they start off being as stiff as plywood. Therefore, I have decided that I'm going to try to get the same boots Christian Bale wore in the newest Terminator movie. Problem is, I have no clue what they are. Can ya'll help me out?

I still have my old combat boots I wore when I was in Airsoft. Cost me over 100 for them.

I always buy Magnums back home, as the issue Mk.III combat boot is shit.

I'm not asking for suggestions, I'm asking for the name of a certain pair of boots

They're Oakley SI Assault Boots.

Gawddamn those are expensive boots. Do any of ya'll know of any good boot makers who make classic (not tactical) boots?

I own two pairs of Timberland 6 inch boots and they work fine and look nice too IMO. Ifyou plan on using them a lto you might ant to get some gel soles as the sole in the shoe is pretty hard. I got a pair of brown ones for 70-80 bucks, the black and wheat (the famous gangsta color) will run you somewhere ovr 100 depending on where you get them.

Yeah, those are gonna be my next pair of boots once my 5.11 ATACs wear out in five years or so. :D

Fuck it, I'm just going to get a pair of jungle boots ( hopefully I can find a pair in size 13 wide instead of the usual size 25 extra skinny)

Unfortunately, I couldn't find any jungle boots that fit so I bought a pair of Corcorans. They're exactly the same as my current boots except the have a steel shank and are one inch shorter

I got my Corcorans today and I'm PISSED. The boot they sent me is smaller than they are labeled and apparently, Wide width Corcoran boots are narrower than normal width! I should have gone to Army Surplus and grabbed the largest size boot available

THREAD NECROMANCY!!!

I bought a pair of Ropers

I'm going to get a pair of cheap Jungle Boots for working and I'm going to use the Bates as camp boots because they stand up to mud better than jungle boots

I wear size 13 Brahma sneakers. They're work sneakers, have steel toes, are water-proof, shock proof, skid proof, and are only $30. And they look like regular sneakers so I can remain casual.

I replaced the issue shit boot, its heel structurestarts falling apart and digging into your heel. It also didnt feel comfortable. I bought some SWAT brand boots at a surplus store with the zip up side so you dont need to tie them, theyre confortable and sturdy. Not expensive either.

Seems like I had a pair of side-zip boots under that name. The zipper on one of them broke off two months after I got them.

I don't wear sneakers. For some reason I haven't been able to find a comfortable pair since I was 11

That sucks dick. It'd never of happened if you had some nice, leather boots

mine are solid, ive hiked, worked, just worn around, and they work just fine, are confortable, and quick to put on when youre rushing to muster or something.

They were leather... Though I assume you mean regular lace-up boots instead of tacticool side-zips. ;)

At any rate, I'm running (no pun intended) a pair of 5.11 Tactical side-zip ATACs now and they're as durable as an AK.

Mine are leather and cloth, there durable but breathe well

Me neither, that's why I like the Brahmas, they're more like work boots that just look like sneakers.

The ropers were delivered today. And guess what- they don't fucking fit :mad:

Maybe you should try buying your shoes in a store from now on. Do you have REI where you live?

I can't buy shoes locally because no one carries my size

Your size is 13 wide? They sell those in stores, they're just a tad harder to find. I once had to use a shopping cart as a make shift ladder to get the 13s off the top shelf. In short, it hurt. :rolleyes:

Not just wide, but EEE. That's extra wide.

Well, I just found out I'm a size 14 EEE in cowboy boot sizes (diff. than normal shoe sizes). No one makes a 14 EEE. :(

i didnt find out i was a wde until i was 17, good thing i did, wide size is way more confortable then going a size up

You know what they say about a guy with big feet right?....

He has big socks. :p

LOL! The local kids at the local high school once asked me if I had military boots they could borrow. What size? I asked. They replied "Size 15" and two Size 16" I was WTF?!?!?!?!

I buy the biggest sock I can find, so that's a non-issue

He drives really fast?

Anyone have any experience with Chelsea/ Australian Work Boots? I've pretty much given up on getting a pair of lace ups/ non elastic pull ons

haha lol

Bought a pair of Timberland Earthkeepers and they are supposed to get here tomorrow. Hopefully, third time's a charm

Timberlands arrived and promptly refused to fit. I'm starting to get pissed off

Make your own shoes out of dead deer, like the Native Americans did.

Mocassins are really, really, uncomfortable
