Howdy all,
I'm a Canadian now living in Vilnius, Lithuania, teaching English and running a small, Jungian, psychotherapy practice. In my former life, I was in the Canadian infantry, and did a proper battlegroup tour in Afghanistan back in 2009, with R22R.
Under the same name, I'm on the BushcraftUSA forums, but I decided I wanted to have some more European conversation, and especially when looking for products, European shops to buy from.
Presently, I'm looking for some recommendations for long-distance, wet-cold, marching boots for the winter--I planned a 5 day trek recently, but had to cut it short after 3 days because my old NEO overshoes failed.
I look forward to getting to know you all!
Spectemur agendo,

, I can recommend this brand, Lundhags. I have a pair of their Synchro boots and have been happy with comfort, support, waterproofness, weight and so on. My only problem with them is that I don't get out in rough or wet enough conditions to make them worth while most of the time! There are threads here with posts from folk who have used them harder in worse places and they are generally positive. They are definitely designed for wet cold. Have a search and read
