Boots

Nike SFB=Lightweight boot to run around in. If you want ANY ankle support, go with something else.

Rocky S2V=I wore these for two years and absolutely LOVED them. The only thing that broke(after two years) were the shoe strings. EXCELLENT ankle support and great all around boot.

Lowa Zephyr=Just got a pair, but so far so good. When you put them on, they feel like civilian hiking boots(super soft and comfy), which is what they are actually. The most confortable desert boots Ive worn. We'll see how they last here soon.
Deuces

PS: The Injinji version hiking sock is great by the way. I wore them during Robin Sage and they really kick butt. Ive run a few 50 mile runs with them as well, and swear by them for long events. Never a blister... though they did peal some of my skin off when I removed them. That was my fault though. I didnt change my socks at mile 7 of a 50 mile run when they got super wet...bad idea. Anyway, Im a Smartwool PHD guy day in and out... but for epic movements, Injinjis.
