Of course boots with Gore-Tex membranes for water-proofness and
breathability are used by the military. You can even buy factory
seconds of the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine boots with the GoreTex membrane.

Yep Military "APPROVED" NOT Military ISSUE.


"Genuine military-issue Boots are factory seconds."

This is not like "Schwinn Approved." These are boots used by the military.

No one will think any worse of you if you admit your mistake.
