Belleville One Xero 320's
Gentlemen,
Does anyone have any experience with the Belleville One Xero 320's?
I am also looking at the Rocky C2V 101's. So feel free to compare/contrast the two if you'd like. There's no shortage of info on the CV2's and everyone seems to like them.
I am specifically looking for boots to take to SFAS. I am due to graduate Airborne Aug 7. So it looks like SFAS anywhere from beginning Fall to Winter.
Please advise

My search continues to turn up no input on the One Xero 320's

More requests for magic boots. 
What is wrong with the boots you will be issued?

I would imagine nothing.
Yet my question still stands.
Hopefully someone has used them before

When you start SFAS one of the first things they tell you (at least I hope they still do) is that "your SF reputation starts here". The fact that you're on this website pushes that start point up a little, as there are many Quiet Professionals both active and retire (many still with contacts in the community) who are reading your posts.
Do you really think this comment was appropriate? I certainly took it as insulting and rude. Now, I haven't kept up a lot of contacts in the community, but I'm not so sure about TR.
Good luck in your endeavors, I hope you find a pair of magic boots to fly you through selection, I for one just wore the crappy army issue boots I was given, and I hope you understand that your reputation is much more important than the boots you wear.

Nah - nobody will ever acuse you of a faulty memory. Missing/disabled filters - yes; but never a faulty memory.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

I'll have you know, my filters are not missing.
...disabled, absolutely. Besides, filters are something you make coffee with.

I assure everyone that all my post are written with nothing but respect. If you have followed them then hopefully I have made this evident.
I'm not here to do anything but be a student.
It was meant to be nothing but conversational.
I'm glad that I have gotten to be exposed to the SF community so early. Thank you for the good luck wishes.

hey bro,
Not sure if you are talking about the C4 trainers or not, but what worked for some was to have a light weight boot ( Rocky c4's etc) for rucking and a heavier boot for landnav ( I used garmonts but a lot of people like the SV2's). To each his own though. I had a stick puncture through my lightweight boots, so better to have a heavier sole when doing land nav in my opinion..
