i just got my second pair of doc martens and boy are they comftorble, so much so that i just ordered another pair for backup. my first pair of docs were steel toe and they were every bit as comfy as a good pair of non-steel. im definatly sold on docs and i think they will be the only brand i ever buy ever again (the beer is talking), too bad their not made in england anymore but CHINA !!!!!

corcoran marauder jump boots. I've worn them all through ROTC, and it will be a shame when i need to swap them out for leather flying boots when I get to UPT.

bate lites boots when i was in the navy, they dont make them the same way anymore... the leather was like suede, the soles where as soft as running shoes. they where steel toe and shank but you could not tell
if i could find them i would buy 3 pairs |
|
I have a pair of Sorel Conquest's that are probably the most comfortable boots I have ever owned.
|
|
LL Bean Cresta Hikers.
After a few years, they fit like a sneaker, and have lots of life in them yet. Great boots. |
|
I made some boots out of marshmellows and cotton candy once. They were very, very, very comfortable....just not vey durable.
|
|
I have had great luck with Wolverine Durashocks. I have owned many pairs to include Danner, Redwing, and a few others. I prefer Wolverines over all of them.

+1. They are every bit as comfortable as ANY shoes I have EVER worn! |

I like my Oakley assault boots, they have held up pretty well overseas and are tres comfortable.
|
|
Vasque Newbrier. Took about 80-100 miles of break in to get them that way although I have sissy blister-prone feet.
|
|
Corcs, RedWing and First Response keep your foot wear up to 'snuff' and wear Cotten socks dagnabbit,,,just opinion
|
|
I heard the Oakleys make a lot of noise. Squeaky or something. True or not true?
|
|
Damn good snow boots, I have a pair. For everything else I prefer Danner Acadias. |
|
|
Well broken in pair of Belleville desert boots with good inserts.
|
|
White's 10" Smoke Jumpers "what other boots strive and fail to be"
|
|

|
+2 Swat's are comfortable too |

i have a pair of sketchers steel toes that grind my feet like a meat grinder, ive wore them 1 time and i cant do it again. these docs feel like im walking bare footed, no tension anywhere in my feet and im on them for 8 hours a day and probably walk a good mile as well.

I had a pair of HiTech Magnums for 4 years that were as comfortable as any I've ever worn. They finlly gave up the ghost from too many paintball outings.
|
|
+1 They are serious work boots. |
|
|
They are nice but, Redwing beats them. |
|
|
True; when wet. |

A regular issue pair I purchased at the USMC issue store at MCAS El Toro. They came with a mesh insert. with good issue socks those damn things were great.
I still have them around here somewhere too. That was thirty years ago and they are still comfy. |
|
Dems sum bootz dere!! Whites are the best boots made! Bar none!! |
|
|
My early 80's USMC black Caddy's. They broke in like glove leather. With good cushion sole inserts they felt like sneakers.
|
|
I got two pair of combat boots while in the Marines from '77-'81. One pair I have worn off and on for the last 26 years. THEY are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn.
The other pair still look like the inspection boots I used them for! It wouldn't take but a few minutes work to raise a good Marine spit shine, but they are barely broken in. |

Gripfast boots, the finest hippie stomping boot made.
TO POLISH Step 1. Put on some Angus boot polish. Step 2. Find a hippie wearing a COTTON tye dye shirt (must be cotton,don't want to scuff your boots on hemp cloth) Step 3. Repeatedly kick said hippie,being careful to alternate boots and paying special attention to the cap toe until you get that mirror polish. Step 4. Don't neglect to polish entire boot ,including heel. |
|
Ain't ya supposed to spit on the hippy alot? |
|
|
I love mine! Honorable mention, at less than half the price, are the Corcoran (made in China though ) 9" Mach desert steel toes. |
|
|
Doc Marten's...I'm wearing a pair of the normal (common) black ones right now.
