Interesting boots

[Devonian]

Now I must confess I've not tried these sorts of shoes so I could be completely wrong, but from a prepping/survival perspective I really cannot imagine that they would provide you with the support or protection that you would likely need????

The ankle support must be negligible and I'm guessing, but you must feel every stone, piece of glass, nail, sharp edge on the ground as you walk around. So if you are walking around a derelict building or a post riot debris strewn street, then I would just imagine your feet being torn to shreds.

Also from a warmth point of view in colder months, your toes would not benefit from the warmth of your adjacent toes - like wearing gloves rather than the always warmer mittens.
