@Smart Car Driveby I just use my construction boots tbh
no reason to spend extra money
Have you ever walked more than 10 miles in kit with them
hiking boot gang says otherwise 😤
5 miles yes
Or spent >24 hours in them
You will immediately know the difference between good boots and shit boots
yeah I've done 2 days with them
Especially if they get wet at all
fudd joining gq be like “just as good”
Are they steel toe'd?
Yes
Throw them out
why
c
Heavy shit
Boots is something where the threshold for money put in to quality out rises rapidly to a point then it's all the same
That point is somewhere around the $200 mark it seems
Can I just go to Dick's and get the 120$ tactical ones ?
hm
Hiking brand boots are almost always better than "tactical" brand shit
Anything Lowa is good to go
There is no way you did 2 days in steelies unless you fucking sat static the whole time
Salo has some pretty good kid range shit
@Smart Car Driveby you can get low zephyr mid gtxs for like 160-170
Honestly pretty solid

Yeah, I hate goretex boots for good reason but those are patrician choice for normie boots
o u don’t like goretex boots?
They have their place
what are your gripes?
But I wouldn't want to use them if I can avoid it
I’m always being told to go for goretex boots
Yeah I mean, I'd rather have sweaty feet then soaked boots
Your feet will get wet this is a garuntee
Goretex does not save you
well yeah
After that goretex just impedes water evaporation and traps heat more
but goretex also focuses on drying faster
