Shite-Kicking Boots

Manolo for the Men has an article on shoes men should have. Last on the list is "shit kicking boots."

I own a pair of boots for just this purpose. They are Bates enforcers. They are warm and comfy and clunky. They have the side zippers so I can get them on and off easily without tracking in mud/snow/whatever all over the house. They're great.

Someone is suggesting that these are shit-kicking boots. No. That is all kinds of wrong. Those are fashion statements. You do not ever have anything white on shit-kicking boots. And those curly bits and gingerbread? Great ways to hold in dirty and nastiness. No those are not boots you would ever intentionally get dirty.

If my enforcers ever wear out, I'll probably replace them with these. Sturdy and shiny.
