  <body>For about the last six or seven years I have been wearing U.S. Army issue combat boots. First I wore the old style black combats most recently I have a pair the brown desert boots. I preferred the the new combats over the older style because the did not have the social hangups that the older black combats had being a civilian in the US. I have been wearing them for about three years now and I am thinking maybe it is time to replace them. So what do you wear? I am looking for some thing that I can wear every day but if I brush them off I can wear them to business casual meetings or for interviews. But I would like them durable so that they will last at least a year. Normally I would grab a new pair of the combats but I am thinking that I would like to start traveling outside of the west. Don't know if that would bring me even more attention then wondering around like a dumb-stuck fool. Would American combats stand out in a place like Korea or India? Any help is appreciated.</body>
