questions:
1. im "ignorant" when it comes to the service, but how do you guys live? is it like a houses on/near base
2. when coppin kicks, do u send them home or keep them with u?
3. when deployed, how do u move your stuff that youve copped?

im just a curious mind...and again, thank u all for wat u do

1. If you haven't been in long, you will most likely stay in dorms, unless you're married. But they have houses on base for people to live in, or you get paid extra to stay off base and buy you a house, rent, etc..
2. If you are away from home, I either just get them sent to the crib or my parents. But when i was in Greenland last year, just had everything sent to me there cause i had room in my dorm since they come pack all your crap when you move.
3. usually you get it sent home.. not to the deployed spot. unless you need like some running shoes or something, im sure no one has kicks collection deployed lol.

[devildoc76]

Additional 35% off clearance clothing and footwear here @ Ft Lewis. Check your local BX/PX for the same deal.

 

[ca5perrr]

u can find some good deals at the BX, just gotta be lucky, since they dont go by release dates , and put stuff out when they get it. lol

Which PX has retro's like that?  Hell we got 1 PAIR of 2011 True Blues in a sz 13 ours!!!! Seemed like after 2000, PX/BX's stopped carrying numbered J's, let alone retro's.

The Oakley boots do just that....they look comfortable...in true SneakerHead style i rock the Nike SFB's......feels like you have sneakers on....light and comfortable.....besides that 185 dollar price tag on the Oakley boots makes me pass over them every time....i got my Nike boots for 117.

 

[devildoc76]

Oakley boots are cool, but as soon as i started the ruck marches, forget it. I burned a hole in the sole. I want some SFB's, but Ill wait. My Bellevilles are good for now.

 

[mrfresh2death23]

Tried the Bellevilles but they were a No-Go at this station.....Im on the SFB's from here on out......once you put them on you won't want to take them off

Im ex british army. Most dudes wore Danner Arcadias back then, then in 93 or so when we went ACE Mobile most dudes took the new issued boot.

These days i do other things, i wear either Danner Striker side zip, but most of the time i wear the Oakley SI Assault boot. Lots of other dudes rockin Danners, Bates, Hi Tec Magnums or Adidas GSG9 IIs.

My crew gots to look good at trigger time.
