I recently discovered Oboz boots. I have the Beartooth and it is an amazing boot. I highly recommend you look at them if you can.

Concerning Dual Survival, I think it is the best of the survival shows because you get to see two completely different approaches to survival, and you can see how combining the two gives one the most options.

Take what you can get from those shows because they all have something to teach us. I used to poo-poo Bear Grylls to no end, but decided to sit down and watch all of Man vs Wild on Netflix. The man may do some incredibly dumb things from time to time, but there is no doubt that the man knows his stuff when it comes down to it.
