<p>If you want to I guess, I ordered mine online and they fit fine.</p>
<p>Did you wear the same size in your boots that you would wear in normal shoes? The boots go by male sizes right?</p>
<p>I'm not sure about how the sizing works, but yeah I think my boots are the same size as normal shoes. If you are leery about it, you could try to find a Surplus Army/Navy store in your area and try some on there. I think you need a Military ID to shop at places on base. But if you are really unsure or wary of sizes, just try giving them a call and asking about the sizing of their boots, I'm sure they can give you some insight.</p>
<p>Your letter of acceptance will do if you don't have a military ID.</p>
<p>they have women's sizes too. at least they had the women on one end and the men on the other at orientation</p>
<p>Great, I found a surplus store in my area. So I just ask for either the Bellevilles or Bates right? Are any of the models acceptable as long as their flight shoes?</p>
<p>There's a model number on the site or in one of your packets or somewhere. It's on the page with the boot, lol. That's all I remember.</p>
<p>Not sure about the Bates, but the Bellevilles are model 700.</p>
<p>Bellevilles are hott. :)</p>
<p>I got wellcos. I think that's what they give people with small feet, lol.</p>
<p>I got my boots a month ago and wear them everyday. When I ran in them, I got blisters just above my heal. I run cross country and track and I know how to take care of my feet. When I come for BCT, can I bring mole skin, duct tape, sock liners and if not how are injuries like these cared for?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>You won't really need to, they issue you a blister kit. And if they get really bad, they'll just take you to sick call and have them fix it for you.</p>
<p>I'd bring that stuff with you if I were you. It's pretty easy to sneak some of that stuff even if they don't allow it, and I'm sure they won't have a problem with it.</p>
<p>Just don't have any scissors or knives.</p>
<p>yup, not allowed to have scissors or knives in BCT.</p>
<p>I had my big toes wrapped almost every other day for blisters. So, they have medical personnel doing this a lot during BCT as well.</p>
<p>I got hot spots above my heal before comming to BCT. If you keep wearing them, the piece causing that will wear down.</p>
<p>i hate blisters...but lucky for me, i havent had any trouble with that yet while breaking in my boots. <em>knock on wood</em></p>
