well now lets clarify this...i bought my first pair at an army surplus stall at the midland game fair,used but in grade 1 order.these were the ones on the right of the picture.they have a small gortex tab on the side and inside there is the dark red thinsulate lining.if you hold them up to the light you can faintly see the words pro boot but this has worn down and is barely visible.
the newer pair on the left were bought from the first link which supplies the mod and if you go to the boot section you will clearly see grade 1 proboots IDENTICAL to my old ones. having talked to quite a few of my comrades ,i have been assured of a fact i already knew....these are the genuine article designed for cold weather/wet weather.
now tell me black is white
ps heat exhaustion is not only caused by water loss but by a lack of salt and potassium.your body needs salt to sweat ,with out it you cant sweat and the body cannot cool its self down properly.thats why they issue salt tablets in hot environments,its also why your skin tastes v salty when you sweat.its important to replace lost fluid but if you dont replace the salts that are lost then youll still overheat and get headaches etc.
try it yourself next time you feel faint on a really hot day.even a couple of bags of salt n vinegar crisps can tilt the balance and make you feel better.
