Military Boots - Desert are army combat boots in a desert pattern. They are tough footwear, but less warm than the standard black Military Boots. They suit warm weather better than cold.
Their main strength is full protection for the feet with a strong stomp. They stop every bite and scratch and hit hard when stomping. Their main cost is a tenth off running speed, the same as other heavy boots.
The boots are a common find in army surplus stores and pawn shops. Household closets and bedroom crates turn up a pair now and then. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The boots cover the feet. They give moderate warmth, block most wind and keep out about half of the water. That makes them a good choice for summer and the warmer days of spring and autumn.
On the feet, zombie bites and scratches never get through. A stomp in these boots hits as hard as in any shoe.
Running is a tenth slower in them. They are built to last, taking a long run of hits before they wear out.
Hiking Boots match them in every figure. The standard Military Boots and Work Boots give the same protection and stomp, but they are twice as warm and far more waterproof. A survivor with both pairs can wear the desert boots in summer and switch to the black boots in winter. Rubber Boots keep out all water, but they wear out sooner and stomp less hard.
Locations
Army surplus store shelves hold a pair more than half the time. Pawn shop storage does just as well, and pawn shop shelves hold a pair about half the time. Other containers in army surplus stores give them about one time in three. Away from those shops, household closets, bedroom crates, garages and attics turn one up only rarely.
