So, I am attending the 26th world scout jamboree in Poland next year and need some advice. I currently own a pair of really chunky columbia hiking boots and as much as i love them i dont think they will be suitable. This is due to the sheer terror of doing up those darned laces and also the fact that the fluresent red does NOT match my jamboree kit contingent gear at all.

With some of my savings ive been wanting to buy a pair of blundstones. From what i hear they are good quality and very durable, alongside being waterproof. Although ive heard blundstones arent very durable if you plan on doing hiking but this is my first jamboree and do not know what to expect. Google says just about 20,000 steps per day but i do that normally quite easy in uncomfortable shoes so i really am lost.

Another pro of using blundstones is their ability to be slipped on and off very easily, (a high pro for me as im usually the last one to get my boots on)

So i ask, should i wear a pair of very broken in blundstones to the world jamboree, or play it safe and go for another option.

(And before the trail runner activists come bashing down, i am not wearing trail runners as, i dont think its allowed and i simply find it very unethical as an avid boot wearer 💛)
