Jesus boots. Useful if it's been raining and you need to walk on a lot of water. It's what I use.

Currently? A pair of German army boots. Nice thick leather, leather lined, non slippy soles. Getting some brand new army issue desert combat boots, ready for when we might get something like a summer.

Right now Woppit, I'd like to walk a mile in yours... seems like 100 yards in any direction is total melt down.

Those Bludstone boots look like the worst things every for wearing when you're out shooting stuff. Actually they look like the worst things ever for doing anything.

I wear M&S shoes for work. Good leather uppers, good sticky lowers. Last forever if you look after them. I have a fricking excellent pair of M&S boots too, had them many years and have taken them through some very sticky and wet adventures, brilliant boots. I also have some ASDA steel toe capped boots for site visits which aren't that comfy but very tough.

2007 AJ5's in black. I shouldn't but I do.
Vans la cripta dos £17 sale items.
2003 dunk lo's - still going strong with soles hardly worn. Best soles ever!

and shimano MT90's when its snowing. A bit hard to stand in all day but they are all I have that's waterproof.

Barker or Loake or Camper or Converse.

A set of 'base' london casuals. Easy to wear and comfortable yet smart enough for the system to approve.

Unless you're wearing them with a suit. Trainers with a suit are the most terrible fashion statement on this entire earth. In fact, the planet obsideon guida has a death penalty against trainers with a suit.

because it's so bad.

Merrell tough gloves, shoes with even a minimal heel just feel weird to me know.

Another one for Blunnies, had mine on yesterday, 15 years old and still going strong, although the elastic is a bit loose now.

Why is it that only people that wear ugly shoes (and Don Simon) feel the need to post pictures of their fashion crimes?

Because we're cool and don't care, and fashion isn't because it does 😀

You're both just jealous because you haven't got the je ne sais quoi to carry off that look successfully.

Gits! 😀
Right that's it, I'm off out to come somewhere between first and last in a nearby 10K. It's a good 10K, because it's about 1/2 mile shorter than most.

Blundstone lace up boots. They last less than a year, so need to be cheap with good support.

Steel toe capped boots (made by a company called Himalaya who were presumably the cheapest supplier my company could find... Surprisingly comfy once you've worn them in though!).
