yes thats true, but my pair of boots is well worn, i havent replaced it in 3 year of service. I had two pairs of what we call "Light Boots". They are meant for infantery(or at least were when i joined), but i got them anyways. Than i transfered to armor and they couldent replace them for me cause they only had "Heavy Boots". I gave one pair to a friend and took his heavies, so when i was discharged and i had to give 1 pair back i gave the heavies. Now all i have is one pair of light boots that i wor for 3 years straight, and they are litterally falling apart. Oh, i have a pair of canadian winter boots, but those are hardly suiteable here most year round
