- If you're a Soldier, Police, Fire, EMS, construction or anyone who has to wear boots on a daily basis, check this out. I show you how to lace up boots in a way that helps relieve pressure on top of the foot thereby relieving some pain. Especially if you wear your boots laced up tight.
Found a pair of boots like this at a just for men's store for $15. Stopped wearing them because they were painful and I felt bad for all of the military guys who had to wear them. I tried one boot the way you showed and the other normal, your way is so much better I may actually wear them now.
I bought a pair cause i thinked "well i bet they should be good enough for long walks and really comfortable". I was so wrong
As a new basic graduate I've bought a new pair of boots for AIT and was looking for a comfortable way to lace them this video helped a lot, thank you ssg
Well you taught this old Jarhead a lesson. I purchased a new pair of Garmont T8 NFS 670's which got pretty good reviews. I had them on for a few hours and had some uncomfortable spots. Re-lacing them per your video makes their fit like night and day. Thanks, and "Thank you for your service".
Wow, you Mister get one good deed added to your entry-to-Heaven list. I have that bone issue on my right foot, which has always been an painful problem when wearing my Belleville boots.
I followed your procedure, well . . . suffice it to say, it is a miracle. It is like I had surgery on that bone and the protrusion was shaved away.
P.S. My dog's happy too because now I'm in a better mood and able to go on longer walks (90 minutes instead of one hour).
I thank you sir. I work as a mechanic and this is by far the most comfortable and still secure my boots have felt in months!
You're welcome
Thanks dude! I hurt the sole of my left foot badly in an accident yesterday, and try to Get outside now, removing the cushion sole and trying your tip 😊 Greetings from Norway!
This video has saved me the struggle and pure rage when I'm trying to get my boots off, in an out of customers houses it's a dream.. Couldn't thank you enough... Cheers
Your welcome and glad it's been a great help for you.
I found this video a long time ago and it helped me out so much, not military but harvest time work 12 hour days no days off type deal. Not doing that anymore now I am in manufacturing boom lifts and scissor lifts and just got a new pair of boots and thought man it's kinda hurting my foot and remembered your video so looked it back up. Lifesaver your lacing method
Best advice for 2022 and a lifetime. Thanks for the knowledge
Brilliant, just laced a pair of side zip combat boots, before I couldn't get my foot in with them laced, now they're great. Good job
I can't tell you how much of my time in the Army was spent trying to figure out how to make my issued gear not hurt me.
Thanks, i was able to get some combat boots from JROTC and this helps i didn’t know how to lace them and my dad is in California for work right now
Thank you SGT. This was very helpful
I’ve been getting pain on that part. Gonna try this out. Thank you Ssgt
Feel any better
Man im glad i found this. You sure helped me out with my Bellevilles sir. Salute
I needed this video!! THANK YOU SIR!!!!
Great tip. Much grateful.
This is brilliant!! Thank you!!
Thank you for your service.
it also helps to do dorsiflexion (yes I googled it) so you can see as you tie your shoe the maximum movement of your foot
Thank you that was helpful. Specially for flat footed people like me.
Thanks for your service.
Thank you very much Sgt. My Altbergs have never been so comfortable
You're welcome. It really changed the way my boots felt when I started wearing them that way so many years ago. Still lace my boots this way today.
That was smart🥾🥾
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸
Thanks for the tip
Thanks SSG.. and thanks for your service I mean that
I’m going off to JCLC this summer (I am in jrotc) first time and with new boots, needed a way to lace them. This video helped me a ton! Thank you ❤
What is jclc
@@TossMesh JROTC Cadet Leadership Challenge = JCLC
Thanks!
the more you use your feet the more they swell and flatten . if your feet are "cold" tie them abit loose so you have space to swell once they are "warm"
Should try lacing with a bar pattern comfortable and good if you need to get your boots off fast. Easy to cut em off
Thank you I mean really that was awesome no bullshit I get a lot of pain in my feet
Thanks for the tip Sgt! From a 3 ID grunt out in Ga 😁👍🏼

@@AllLettersFilledI well its SFC now but he didn't mean it in a disrespectful manner. Just SGT as in an NCO, not the rank.
❤Thank you ❤
While I debate on whether to serve this'll come in handy
stick to ringmaking
OMG THANKS!!!!!
Holy shit am I grateful. I’ve got weird club feet, with a giant bony protruding portion on top. If my laces are tight it can pinch and cause pain. Much better
When I first joined the army, I had an infantry drill he was really hard on us but I always had alot of respect because I could see he wanted us to become great soldiers and he wasn't just doing it to be a as§hole or just wanting to fùck with us although there was definitely alot of smoke and pain it was all worth it in the end but he got onto me once for having loose bootlaces and I he told me you should always have your laces good and tight so you don't roll your ankle he demonstrated trying to roll his and then asked me to do it and I almost rolled my ankle just trying to demonstrate and he said see that's why so I always kept them really tight not enough to cut off circulation but nice and tight but this setup is really nice idk if it will still save you from rolling your ankle though
A SSG with his boots off behind the desk… lol ain’t no other way
@motosuwahideki1 Try the same eyelet skipping method he is using in the area where you are experiencing your pain and see if that helps and if you're not in the military try using other methods of lacing your boots entirely. there are many methods and some are for style but personally I only use different methods for efficiency in different things that I may be doing at the time. There are many different ways you can lace your boots and many methods are for different purposes so for example if you were going to go hiking you would lace your boots differently than if you were just going through your normal daily activities.
Just laced my Belleville steel toed boots like that, so far so good. Got any tips for the Belleville Mountain combat 950?
I hated wearing the mountain boots.
My boots pinch just above my ankle and hurts like hell how do I get that to stop?
Try skipping an eylet where the pain is. Might help, if not, it could be the boots.
Please give me a link to the website of the boots, I also want this model
These are very similar and newer style. Ones shown are older style.

always trust military they know there boots laced mine the same now my bates are perfect now feeling
Hey sir, I've never been in the military, But I've been struggling to find good socks. What are the issue green socks that you had ? What material are they made out of?
would be very glad if you can tell me about it :)
amzn.to/3yj6YXt
The socks I wear are in the link. They're what I've been wearing every day for the last 19 years of service. They will not shrink, do not make my feet or boots stink like the Fox River socks did.
@@WoodworkingWarrior Thanks!!! I really like the look of those green socks, just going to purchase some
I have one question about military boots, are most steel toe?
No they are not steel toed at all. No need for that.
no, they aren't
По- русски, сэр... Плииз
If your smart you will invest in oakleys
Full blown POG nonsense
lol. Having comfortable boots for ground pounding isn't being a POG, it's just smart.
@@WoodworkingWarrior Try this lacing technique and then do a 18 mile ruck with 45 lbs ruck weight and let me know how your feet are feeling 😣☠️
@@21KiNgDoM4 I did a 31.87⛩️ mile ruck and an 18.7⛩️ mile ruck with my boots laced like this. Works just fine.
@@joshuarodriguez2242 ok 😂
@@21KiNgDoM4 Didn't realize i responded with my other account.
⛩️RAKKASAN⛩️ Don't hate just because your feet hurt and you'd rather suffer in because "that's POG stuff."
Izzrael thanks you for your service
