I'm still all over these Oakley boots.

We and the SF guyz were wearing these things out on those sharp rocks "over there."

They hold up pretty well.

I loved my Oakley boots. I was at a school for the Army before I got out, and towards the end, my boots finally fell apart. People didn't understand why I really didn't want to throw them away; reality there was no saving the boots. But then again the people questioning me were soft skills.

I've tried the red wings. I didn't care for them. I will have to look into the Oakley.

What ever happened to red dog?  Training aid for the Vet or did it go to live on an Uncles farm?
