Those are the Haix desert boots issued for Mali. Different beast but similar design.

I saw a few people trialling the new boot today... Haix Scout in brown.
Canvas boots, fine for dry, dusty environments, but would be an absolute b'stard to get properly cleaned again if you stepped in a muckpond with them, IMHO.
Asked him if they were Goretex lined, he didn't know...

Great for night patrols and night nav's when you cant see where you are stepping.I always carry mine in my Bergen.

I've never found gaiters that useful tbh in a patrolling env but am RDF so limited experience. Plenty of hillwalking and I find the same

losing gaiters and headover seems a bit short sighted.
always handy bits of kit...especially in cold, wet Ireland!

TBH that post was the first time I've ever called it that. I've heard of barracks jackets being taken off PDF

Lol so the only person who calls it that is Dev! I was wondering why I never heard it, in fact i've heard it just called a fleece!

Nobody calls it the westlife jacket except people posting here.
As an aside the Barracks jacket was never taken off the issue scale.
