I twisted my ankle in my second game wearing normal trainers. I see people with high military boots and others with trail shoes. For woodland with rocks and roots, what would you recommend and is it worth spending the money?

After 9 years wearing high-top tactical boots, and having witnessed several ankle sprains in colleagues and players, I've come to a conclusion: high-top boots save you from a lot of trouble. I've twisted my ankle several times and it's always been nothing more than a scare thanks to them. I think trail boots are a good idea for someone who's used to wearing them, but a hassle for a lad who just grabs them because he's seen someone else wearing them and wants the same. My personal recommendation is that whenever there's forest, mud or irregular terrain, high-top mountain boots are king. For some very flat CQB I've managed to play in Vans without any issues, but I reckon that's where the type of trainers a person feels comfortable in generally comes down to, especially in more urban environments :)) Let's see what the community has to say
