Hello everyone!
I always try to stay as pusser as I can, so that's why I'm asking asking this instead of jumping and buying a pair.
Wellington boots are listed in the 265 as a footware for Naval mess dress, but I've never seen anyone do it. What's the deal with that?
Is it an unofficial officer/NCM thing like the parade boots/Oxfords? Is it a style preference? Is it a result of unification and thus came from our more colourful brethren? Or, on the contrary, is it a fading tradition in which I can take pride in continuing?
Cheers,
Paul
