cheers johnboy, will give those a closer look when my current boots and i part company. if i picked up a pair of army desrt foxes, the type that are all over ebay, is that the same boot? or does the army one differ from a civvy one?

I don't think the Army one differs at all from the Civvy one.. In fact I'm not sure if they offered the Civvy one to many markets at all. The only difference between mine and the Issue ones on the bay is the colour.
The "canvas" or "goretex" on jungle boots is cordura, I believe. Feels like it...
Hi Tec Magnums are great IMHO tho
Jungle boots are for the jungle.
I wore US military jungle boots for 20 years in the US Army. I have used the green canvas ones and the black nylon ones. They take some getting used to and they are pretty hard sole, no shock absorbtion...
