>>311830My latest outdoor purchase was a pair of Hi Tec Altitude Vs (I thought hi-tec, fuck that, but the reviews for the IVs were great and they're not much more expensive than the cloth trail shoes I burn through).
I'd pay more for good boots but I don't know what the good ones are these days (I'm replacing some ancient and excellent Raichles), and I needed new boots right then for spring thaw and spring rain. So far so good.
