Hello, '23er here for USAFA.
This probably has been asked a couple of times now (I've seen this question asked a few years back), but what's the deal if the boots that we bring to I-Day happen to fall apart during BCT?
I bought the Nike SFB Field, and apparently, they do have some issues with durability and may wear out during Jackson's Valley. I've seen some answers in the past where they say that they will be giving us issued boots for us to use (and also states that in the appointee booklet), but I've also heard from others (current cadets at USAFA) where they said that you will need to buy another pair of your own if the boots that you brought happen falls apart.
For the most part, I'm sticking true to what I read in the appointee booklet, but if anyone has a solid answer, please let me know. Just want to make sure. Thank you!
