Had a pair of waterproof danners that were horrible. It was like wearing plastic bags on your feet. I threw them out after a couple of weeks they were so bad.
I used to have a hell of a time in the USMC with my feet falling apart. Until I found the secret of wearing dress socks under your boot socks. And the magical pair of CTEP jungle boots I had in Afghanland made it through with zero blisters and we covered many miles. Wish I knew the brand. I think they were Bates but not sure.
Last time I bought a pair for work I went over our shoe allowance price to get a pair of Carharts. I don’t like screwing around with shitty boots after my past experiences. So I tried on like 10 pair that day. It was a damn good investment. Probably the second most comfortable pair of boots I’ve ever had. Plus they were the only pair I saw in the store that day that were actually American made.
