What do you guys use for shoes? Are high top ankle collared shoes good for long distance hiking or is it mainly for hilly terrain? Are those $300 shoes overpriced meme shoes or is there a cheaper alternative that holds up well?

A few weeks ago I went camping in Northern ID. It was warm and clear out so I slept on a sleeping pad and only used a wool blanket and a hoodie for insulation. It was plenty and I slept great, but it probably didn't get down past 40°.
The blanket is the cheapest 80% wool blanket I could find at a surplus store. I think the brand is Swiss Link. It's relatively think and looks like a moving blanket.
It got me thinking, is there any benefit to 90 or 100% wool over 80%? Would a thicker wool blanket, like an older Pendleton or a genuine Swiss blanket, be noticeably better for colder weather, maybe down to the 30's? Asking because it seems like all of the good wool blankets are $75-$250, and while you definitely get what you pay for, I wonder how much more you get. I'm not suggesting a wool blanket over a real sleeping bag, or only using one in the dead of winter or something stupid like that. Just using one in spring-summer.
Does anyone here blankie camp? If so, what seasons? What's your setup like? What's the best way to be comfy?

okay last thread in the catalog is gay af so here is a machete thread
what should I be looking for if I want something heavy to cut through shrubs and thorns like an explorer but also maybe for firewood and full tang batoning and to have something to hold on when it's scary at night and I hear weird noises?
also bonus point if it allows me to larp as a cyberpunk pirate like pic related (is it really a cool looking flimsy piece of shit like I suspect?)
the cheaper the better btw

I saw some videos hyping them up. are they actually better than traditional wood or nylon or is it just a quirky fad
What are some good battery powered portable shower systems for overlanding or basecamps? Is there anything powered by 18650 or 21700 batteries? It seems like everything is built-in battery nowadays which will just go bad with less charging capacity after a couple a months.
