jungle boots
Humid terrain shoes
Jungle boots are military footwear designed for hot, wet environments like tropical rainforests.
They typically feature canvas uppers for breathability, drainage holes to let water escape, and reinforced soles for rugged terrain.
Originally developed for combat in Southeast Asia, they remain standard issue for soldiers operating in jungle conditions and are popular with hikers and hunters in similar climates.
