As the title says, I'm a bit curious what kind of shoes people use. I've seen that some people prefer thin-soled leather shoes for tracking, while some people swear by hi-tech hiking boots.
So, what's your choice?

I live quite close to the factory so they made them to order for me and were kind enough to tweak them so they are a perfect fit.
Heavy and thick soled but IMO that is a plus as they feel "bombproof"
Hi-leg as i always seem to find the puddle slightly deeper than my boots.
Expensive at £160 but as i live so close they can repair/replace many worn parts for years to come.

my cadets boots have a thinsulate lining and i also struggle to get my heel in themwanderinstar said:I have a couple of pairs of ex-forces Pro boots. They have Thinsulate lining so are really warm.
Trouble I have is getting them on initially, because the tongue is stitched all the way up.I really struggle getting my heel [widest part of foot] in. Once I get them on they are really comfey.
