What must I look for in a good pair of boots that must last in a tropical climate and cover many miles?

Question

I would like a good pair of boots to take with me on an expedition to a tropical climate in Feb-Mar next year. I am male and UK size 10.

I aim to cover a lot of miles a day through undergrowth and rough terrain. Ideally, I would also be able to run and climb in them.

Should I look for civilian boots or military surplus? If so, can you recommend a particular model or type?

Thanks.

Answer 1

military style boots are made to last.. you should go to a military surplus

Answer 2

Try to find a pair of JCB safety boots on the web.

They are great value. I have used them on all terrains.

Answer 3

have you ever worn military boots?  they kill your feet until you get used to them. military clothing is on contract and mostly all the same.  but a civilian pare will conform to your likings and you can get any style you want
