These boots are adequate but not built to Military Specs. I bought these while in Afghanistan as replacement boots. The ADO system is notorious for giving you the wrong size. The size of these boots was correct to my choosing however the right boot was cut or sewn differently than the left boot and hurts the bridge of my foot.
I've had these boots for two months now and they still hurt. the leather is a little thin. The sole seems to be standard waffle sole, a classic. For the most part these boots are ok and will get me through the deployment. I probably wouldn't buy another pair though.
