Damn, thanks everybody for all the great suggestions and taking this so seriously, haha.
I’m not going mountaineering or anything (although I do love that shit and wish I still lived around big mountains).
They’d be for daily use. My job has me in an office half the time and outside walking my ass off the other half, occasionally slogging through water/mud etc.
I’d like to do give myself the best chance of skating a little after trudging around all day. It’s no fun trying to skate when yer dogs are barkin’, know what I mean?
