I have a few buds here that are wearing the Bates M9 and the oakleys.
They both seem to hold up under moderate use (no long rucking etc) for about 6-7 months. Ive seen quite a few guys wearing the Converse too.
We have a Lt that just busted a sole on his Oakleys after 9 months including MOB. Theyre still wearable.
Ive been wearing the Wellco desert style jungle boot which have been holding up outstandingly. Only prob is theyre not the most comfortable as the soles seem paper thin. Some guys have had them resoled on leave with the ripple soles and love them.
I think Ill try the Bates M6 or the Converse Persuit just for fun, then write a review at the end of tour.
Im thinking for hard use the Wellco jungle style desert boot with ripple soles is probably the best for hard use over here. They come in half sizes and narrow widths too-
