text: I was issued these boots in the military.  They fit ok, but they are not insulated and they are like ice boxes in the winter.  Also, the tread is horrible and you will get very little traction on these things on slick surfaces.  You will also need to change the insoles.  I wouldn't recommend wearing them in the woods.  In my mind, they are parade boots for shining and marching on flat, paved surfaces only...
