Good pair of regulation boots?

[RevThompson]

I'm looking for a good pair of Army regulation combat boots, I have had several friends tell me the ones they issue you suck. So I'm looking for a good pair for drill once I get back. I've looked all over OKC and no one seems to carry any in desert tan. I was wondering if any one had any suggestions for a good pair and perhaps a good place to get them locally.

not local, but i bought a pair of converse that i've seen many places for $100+ from lapolicegear for $54.99 about $65 with shipping. they have been great boots

Cool thanks for the suggestion. How long have you had them? Just trying to figure how long they last.

Gelco on Agnew in the Stock Yards carries Bates, Danner, Converse, and few others and Im pretty sure they had tan in stock last time I was there

They are pricey, but the Danner Fort Lewis boot is the most comfortable and durable boot I've ever been issued....they have winter and warm weather models.

SMS is correct. While the FT Lewis isnt my first choice, IT IS a great choice. I am partial to the TFX series From Danner.

My SIL swears by Converse.

Call the Danner Factory Outlet and see what they have in stock. I've gotten boots that were half price of retail and had to look hard to see what flaw got them tossed to the outlet shelves. They dont have an online store, so you have to have your model numbers ready as you call and talk to them on the phone.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Think I'm going to go with Danners, not sure which ones yet.
