>>2648144>muh weak anklesI'm an anklet too so I wear these. Because as I said I've decided what my priority's are. Strong ankles and no heal drop, but there is a compromise for grip without a heal lug, and they're not water proof at all, I had to cover the bottoms in a thick layer of shoe goo but they're still crap. The canvas tops are great, keeps all the crap out of them and don't get wet from walking through wet bush, only rivers and swamps. I take two ankle straps that stay in my pack but If I have to cross a hideous boulder field I'll put em on and my ankles are more solid than any traditional boot.
