For the most part I think there's only really two main DM styles - the workboot sole and the original thinner soles with lines (and versions with steel caps and different holes count). Though no doubt it's a lot more complicated than that to the company marketting department. heh heh
boots over shoes every time. my personal favorite of my boots are my veit nam jump boots there so warn in its like your not wearing anything on your feet
The boots (that Ive been craving for ever) are red leopard print
the sneakers are black and (regular) leopard print....
I live in Florida and boots are kinda hot and heavy, but on the other hand it is Winter and I don't own a pair of boots.
Red doesn't go with everything, but they are really spiffy (and since when I have I cared about matching?)
But I would use the sneakers more and they would match more, but they are about $10 more than the boots (kinda odd since boots are usually expensiveee)
So I am about dead in the middle with pros and cons with these shoes...
