I am reading a lot about the RU logistical nightmare during the current war in UA. With all those additional hundreds of thousands of troops being mobilized, it seems they cant even afford to properly equip the ones already on the warfare. I have even seen soldiers that are wearing sneakers instead of combat boots.
My question is, why does it matter? Especially in a warmer months. Why cannot all soldiers just wear the “trail running” shoes or basic “hiking shoes”. How can it be that worse then proper military boots? Cannot it be even better, since it is usually lighter and more comfortable?

I haven’t seen it listed here yet, but mud and clay.
I went to a military simulation wargame pre covid and there was trenches dug, some of which retained water and became wet clay.
You will need every inch of those absurdly long laces to keep boots on your feet in such situations.
