    Think you might be aiming your 20 euro a little high.

    I don't think there's any army sort of shop in town.

    For that kind of money you could try Heatons

    Wasn't there an army surplus store across from the Friary? Highly doubt you'd get anything decent with €20 though.

    It's not gonna happen. Your only hope is a charity shop. Failing that I'm sure you could five pints for 20 yo yos somewhere in Sligo - your current pair of shoes won't look so bad then.

    A couple of my friends got some good military boots from an army surplus store recently. I think it was in castlebar. It cost them about €40/50. You could always try the airsoft adverts forum.

    Is there a TK Maxx near you? They do good brands for about 25-30 quid.

    i would reckon try your luck on ebay but with postage and all you'd have to be lucky in an auction,but it could be worth atry
