I'm back to boot shopping again. I just wore out my Solomon 3D Forces. They were decent boots, but didn't hold up to daily duty boot standards. I don't think I got 12 months out of them.
Part of me is saying to follow uniform standards and get something like the Bates Strike 6" boot.
Then the Cali-hippie, granola-muncher, side of me is saying to buy the new North Face or Merrell boot... because it feels like they're having sex with your feet... in a good way.
