shoresfinest

yes really cuz i have conflicting arguements coming from 2 sr members in my squadron

Check with your CC not seeing anything anywhere about sage boots even being authorized.  Someone else here may have an idea.

its not a matter of authorization.....im talkin about when ur out in the field like i was on standby ready to go when irene hit and i live on the shore
does it matter if its live

abdsp51

Sorry but without anything in writing I wouldn't consider it field or not.  And having worn both materials in the field depending on the location suede is not the best for field work.

Suede boots aren't authorized.

Just save up and buy better black boots.

No you can't. There is the simple answer.
Any advice I give is worth exactly what you are paying for it.

Yes, it is.  Our uniform doesn't change with the mission.

Can't really speak for your situation.  On my ground team, I let my cadets wear practical footwear such as hiking boots on missions and during training.  It helps avoid messing up their good combat boots that they wear for regualr meetings and inspections.  I don't get too wrapped up in regulations when we're out in the woods getting crapped up in the mud and weather.

Who says they can't have two pairs of boots?

Full disclosure: I'm a little more lenient on this topic in the winter (a couple of my GTMs have Thinsulate hunting boots). I'll take my 10 lashings with cpyahoo now.

If I remember correctly afjrotc don't wear Abu yet but then again I haven't been in afjrotc since 2003 but if your af jrotc det cc has infact been given perrmission to wear ABUs then by all means wear your sage boots with ABUs but black boots aren't authorized to be worn with ABUs and sage not authorized for BDUs

You know....I don't think the USAF even really cares too much about what AFROTC and AFJROTC are doing.
