One pair is military boots (link below), and the other is cowboy boots. The military boots have served me for 3 years, including Bagram, with the original inserts. The cowboy boots have been worn on and off for over a decade, and have scavenged boot inserts from old military boots.

Previously, I'd just wear the inserts out and keep wearing them. If they were that bad, I'd scavenge them from old boots/shoes or buy an inexpensive pair.

And I did recently acquire a second pair of these boots, which I'm currently breaking in. https://reebokwork.com/rapid-response-rb-rb8850/

If you go to VA they wil fit you for free. A couple of my VFW buddies have foot issues. Otherwise, I'd recommend the "Good Feet Store" although they are pricy. RedWings is another good place. Depending on your feet you may need specially fitted inserts. Good Luck Patriot! P.S., I've been rolling around since the Tet Offensive so don't have to worry about them feets.

Can you get free inserts while Active Duty? If so, it's a well kept secret. As for Good Feet Store, it looks like they cost far more than the boots itself. It might be worth it later after I try more reasonable options or when I get older. RedWings is likely the first place I'll check out if no one pops in with more suggestions. Good excuse for a motorcycle ride too.
