Winter is coming, with cold rain and freezing mud. Normally I wear cheap running shoes wherever I go as jogging is my preferred mode of travel. =D
But now I want something warmer, and more weatherproof.
The trouble is that my wonky feet wear out boots in a hurry, especially on the inside of the heel. I simply cannot wear boots with a foam, rubber, sponge or mesh lining at the heel, they last me a few weeks at the most.
So I've been wearing british army boots, which are all leather lined. I really liked them for a while, but last year the leather started to crack, letting water in, and the sole came off in several places.
Now I'm not really sure what to buy. I would like to try another army boot, or at least a leather boot that is simple and rugged.
Are there any that won't fall apart with regular use? Could someone recommend a pair that ideally doesn't break the bank?
