Nitesun , I swear by the hi tec magnums for summer and Pro boot for winter , Both are the choice of many a trooper. Used them in both extremes and they are fantastic. magnums now come in 100% leather or 50/50 leather/cordura (they also do waterproof model ) But to be honest the pro boot is the best and widely available on civvy market ! i'm taking mine to see bIN lADEN !

Thanks for all the comments - I am using Pro Boots at the moment and I totally agree with the fact that they are very warm. On the down side they can get too warm when inside etc. The MOD flying boots that we are issued with are very thin and offer no warmth in the winter, but I would want to retain them for summer use. The comments regarding FOD arose from diehard members of my unit who swear by the MOD boots and are resistant to changing them. I totally agree that FOD should not be an issue, but I was seeking some ammo to throw back at them. At the end of the day what is more important?? Comfort or a stone in your boot!!!
