Wildland firefighting has always faced many challenges

摘要

A firefighter's wildland boots can make or break a wildland firefighter. A wildland firefighter's gear not only needs to keep them safe from injury, it needs to help them perform the job at hand to the best of their ability. Footwear out in the field that leads to blisters, pain, and/or discomfort, or cannot stand up to the conditions they face, can seriously jeopardize a firefighter's ability to perform their job and could potentially jeopardize the firefighter's as well as the team's safety.
