These are OK boots for parade and fieldcraft as we are only allowed black boots in our detachment at the moment.

I must have owned at least 4 pairs of these boots since I started sea cadets and they are virtually invincible. The only reason I actually had to get new ones is because my feet are to big and nothing else and if that happens then you can easily sell them to another cadet for at least £25 as all you have to do is polish them a bit and they will look like they did on day one.

Bought these boots for my son in Air cadets and they seem a good fit and the Squadron approve the style.

I've owned a pair of these boots for an extremely long time (around a few years) and I can honestly say they were worth every penny. The boot is extremely durable and can easily withstand field-craft exercises, long expeditions and long hours of drill practice. In addition they look superb when you give them some love with polish and will make you look extremely smart in parades. They're relatively comfy to wear providing you have the correct socks to prevent blisters etc. .Overall it's a brilliant boot, a bit on the expensive side but if you wear boots often then I'd highly suggest getting yourself a pair of these.

Incredibly easy to get on with, and very easy to break in! This year I am carrying out the 2016 Nijmegen March with Plymouth and cornwall wing, air cadets and these have prevented many blisters! I would and have recommended this product to all of my friends at my local unit.

These boots could survive nearly anything. The rubber on the soles is really tough, and takes a long time to wear through. The leather is prone to cracking but will last a long time if you polish them regularly like a good cadet, and let them dry slowly at room temperature instead of on a radiator in in an airing cupboard. They are pretty hit and miss with how they treat you feet. I've had blisters from these (particularly at the back, above the heel), but also days where they've seen me through without a scratch. They WILL punish you if you take them on a long trek without breaking in first. Great all-rounders. There's a reason they were issued to troops for so long.

For the price paid I found these were a very good buy, have had them for about 2 years now with little wear. Would recommend
