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?

Military spec does not mean better or tougher. It means designing to a specific specification. In the case of boots the spec will call for longevity support and resistance to terrain that will lacerate runners.
