Casual and Boots
What type of boots do you wear when going casual? I have a pair of 5.11 ATAC zippered boots that I am contemplating wearing when I get my kilts. I don't know if the zippers will make them look dorky or not.

I wear that type of boot with my kilts. I also wear sneakers, sandals, and knee-length moccasins. I think they all look good when casual .

I'm a Doc Marten guy. I like New Rocks, but many of them have zippers, which I dislike. Besides, NRs are EXSPENSIVE! Traditional military boots work too.
My newest Docs are the 1460 Triumphs in brown.

I have some black hiking boots for casual. They're part swade leather and part... woven nylon I guess.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Yes my boots are based on Firefighting and EMS work, sorry.

I wear the Wal Mart Special black work boots. I was accused of looking goth earlier today because of it... or maybe the black Amerikilt... or black t shirt with silver Celtic cross... or a combination of all those... Either way, I think those boots look killer. I want a pair- but as I told my clan chief, I have kids, so I have to stick with the Wal Mart special for casual wear. He called them combat boots, so I had to set him right.

I have a pair red wings which I dug out of the closet due to the massive snowfall earlier this year. Hadn't worn them since I was in africa 6 years ago. Those are the only boots I have. I prefer to stick to sandals, or barefoot when possible.

Impressive! Those have nice lines, yet they're aggressive and rugged.

No need to apologize. I think that's a great reason to wear them.
