I was called Fred (as in Flintstone) when I was measured for boots in Basic training. I have worn the Spot built High tops for the past three seasons and will probably never buy a different pair of shoes as long as they are available. Yes they do look like Frankenstein's boots, but they are not nearly as heavy as they appear and do a great job of protecting. They are also built 'deep' enough to allow orthodics and/or inserts if necc.
