When I found out I was deploying to Iraq, I went out and bought a pair of Wellcos that resembles the Belleville Air Force Desert Flyers boots, but with the tuffcusion sole. A few weeks later, I was issued a pair of Bellevilles, similar to the brown suede USMC boots that go with their spiffy new marpat uniforms. They have a sole just like the tuffcusion sole. Both boots are very comfortable. The Bellevilles where issued about a half size too big (easily solved problem with thick socks). I wear the Wellcos because they look cooler LOL, and I paid for them, I might as well get all they are worth out of them. I hope the Wellcos will hold up through a Afghanistan deployment if I ever go there.
