    What are the best longest lasting work boots/hiking boots to wear while walking on all this gravel in Iraq?

    By HikingOn | April 27, 2009

    I'm a civilian contractor in Iraq and we do a lot of walking, mainly on gravel. Walking on rocks all the time wore out the sole of my Timberland field boots in 3 months. I have a pair of converse boots that are very comfortable but they're not very lightweight. I need a lightweight boot with a very thick sole that will last longer walking on gravel.

      Your main needs are durability and extremely good quality. I am acquainted with a guy who makes custom boots that you just can almost never wear out. They are even so comfortable that you won't want to take them off.

      Go to the website below, read about boot fit, durability and dependability, then click on the "expert boot makers" link at the bottom of the page for the best boots you will ever own.

      Good luck and thank you for your work in Iraq.
