<p>Red Wing are excellent steel toe boots thats what i am bringing to sea with me. Very comfortable and just all around great. THe plebe issued boots are HORRIBLE and very uncomfortable. </p>
<p>I second getting a good sharp knife. Doesn’t matter what kind as long as you know it won’t go dull on you. The plebe knifes i actually think come to you already dulled up. might be a safety issue since some find plebe year depressing and who needs a sharp knife when your depressed…spyderco knifes are very good tho. my roomate had one and it could cut through anything and are good for uniform stuff like IP’s.</p>
