<p>From my experience, I would advise any of you with questions to go with the Belleville boot. I was issued the Wellco boots during beast and they ate me feet up pretty bad. On the other hand, I wore my Bellevilles every day during CFT, patrolling for miles on end, and never got any major blisters. No matter what boot you decide to buy make sure you break them in before coming. You will still get blisters during beast, however they will not be close to as severe as if you are wearing boots that are not broken in. You will not be running in them so do not put your feet through the added agony. Hope this helps you guys and I’ll see you all on R-day.</p>
