Comments about GI TYPE DESERT TAN BOOT:

I wear these boots everyday. They're warm, durable, have great traction, and are very comfortable. The only downside I've noticed is that you have to use a waterproofer since they aren't already water resistant.

Comments about GI TYPE DESERT TAN BOOT:

I'm using this boot primarily to toughen my areas of my feet that haven't been covered by a running shoe before going to BCT and SFAS. I traditionally wear sneakers or cross trainers and adjusting to the footwear is something I wanted to do BEFORE I go on a 30K hike with a 45 pound rucksack. Current use is 5-20K hike about 3-4 times a weeks with a 20 pound ruck.

As for the boot construction:

Sole- it's solid and gets good tread on dirt, gravel,and mud. I've had them for a couple weeks now and am already noticing significant wear. Whether this is from my high rate of activity or poor product design, I can't be sure.

Body- the main body of the boot is relatively good at blocking moisture from getting in (after being treated with mink oil, prior to that I doubt it would be nearly as effective.). Very sturdy and no complaints.

Insole- this is where I have to gripe. 3 days and the insoles were torn up. Had I not already planned to replace these with higher quality ones, I would have been very upset.

End rating, good boot for the price you pay. Certainly not worth much more than 40 bucks, though.
