Some activities:
- Daily walks along a short rocky trail with my three 70lb - 80lbs dogs. Walking two dogs or one hyper Weimaraner at a time. At minimum four times a day. A lot of the scratches/scrapesn you see are from these walks.
The ankle support and tough Red Dog leather kept me protected on these walks. For example, when my dogs would charge a stray cat/squirrel and pull me unwillingly to join the cause, it was typically into rocks or branches and but thankfully I fell on my face because of the ankle support.

- Helped my friend move during a rainstorm carrying heavy stuff up to the third floor
- Two Metal shows and several moshpits. Ankle support was great and kept standing in the pits. The tall heel helped me see above crowds to see the bands (me at 5’ 9” any extra height is welcomed)
- Outdoor food festival, many outdoor breweries and food trucks
- Local fantasy themed pro-wrestling show. Tall heel again helped see the action again

- Trips to museums
- Visited my friends farm, fed some cows. It was great
- Chilled at my local coffee shop working on my laptop many times
- Most importantly: wore them to hang with friends that would listen to me monologue about the history of the packer boots and why I think they’re so cool..."Read the full review
