    Questions and answers

    Which is better for actual military or flight duty?
    The Belleville C790. It is AR 670-1 and Berry compliant, approved for flight, and has a GORE-TEX lining and Vibram outsole. The Journee Vienna is a fashion boot and is not built or certified for duty.
    Is the Journee Vienna waterproof?
    No waterproofing is stated for it. The upper is soft vegan leather. The Belleville C790 is the waterproof option, with a GORE-TEX lining.
    Which lasts longer?
    The Belleville should last far longer under hard use, with a leather and nylon upper and a Vibram Sierra outsole. The Journee is a lighter fashion boot in vegan leather with a cushioned footbed.
    Is the Belleville worth the extra money?
    If you need a certified, waterproof duty boot, yes. If you just want the combat-boot look, the Journee at roughly $60 to $64 in recent daily pricing covers that for much less.
    Which is easier to put on?
    The Journee Vienna, which has a side zipper entry. The Belleville uses lace-to-toe lacing for a custom fit, which takes longer to tie.
    Do both come in wide sizes?
    The Belleville C790 comes in sizes 3 to 15 in regular and wide. Wide sizing is not stated for the Journee Vienna.
