Evidently, airborne bros have time. Those are jump boots.

Are you actually going to be using them for rugged use? If so, don't buy those.

Altama still makes a jungle boot I think. They are not the same company as they used to be, but it would definitely be a better quality product than Rothco.

Top of the line would probably be Mcrae. They are high quality made in the USA boots.

The Corcoran jump boots are good, but their field boots were much more comfortable.

Be very careful about where you go to buy those in person.

I remember that being a big issue in the news when I was a kid, how the traditional boot was breaking down too fast and contributing to jungle rot, which led to the development of the jungle boot

You get the zipper thing to tie into the laces and then all you have to do is just zip it up, easy peasy.
