Evolution of combat boots: From bootees to modern tactical boots
The phrase "an army marches on its stomach" has been attributed to both the Emperor Napoleon and Prussia's Frederick the Great – but regardless of who said it, many soldiers in the field would argue the importance of effective military boots.
The boots that soldiers have worn have improved dramatically over the past several hundred years.
The current Army Combat Boot (Temperate Weather) is used in conjunction with the Army Combat Uniform and it far more practical and a whole lot less "spit and polish" than the boots worn by Napoleon's or even Patton's troops.
The ACB (TW) is a tan-colored, temperate weather boot that features moisture-resistant, rough-side-out cattlehide leather with a nylon duck cloth upper. This makes the boots both somewhat waterproof but still breathable, and unlike the old leather boots the polyether polyurethane midsole provides cushion.
There is also a slip-resistant rubber outsole that soldiers of the past would have envied.
