The british army is so outdated. They still use lee enfields and shitty variations of the sten gun. Even their more modern guns are garbage, bulpup shit stains on weapon design. If they had been less arrogant and gone with foreign weapons that actually work, then maybe they wouldn't have lost in afghanistan.
This along with their low requirements and training are the reason why they lost in ww2 and had to be saved by their own ex colony. UK used to be an OK country, but now it's full of incompetent asshats. Just look at brexit.
You can probably trace this problem right down to the root of the collapse of the british empire.
A shoe is an item of footwear intended to protect and comfort the human foot while doing various activities. Shoes are also used as an item of decoration. The design of shoes has varied enormously through time and from culture to culture, with appearance originally being tied to function. Additionally, fashion has often dictated many design elements, such as whether shoes have very high heels or flat ones. Contemporary footwear varies widely in style, complexity and cost. Basic sandals may consist of only a thin sole and simple strap. High fashion shoes may be made of very expensive materials in complex construction and sell for thousands of dollars a pair. Other shoes are for very specific purposes, such as boots designed specifically for mountaineering or skiing.
Traditionally, shoes have been made from leather, wood or canvas, but are increasingly made from rubber, plastics, and other petrochemical-derived materials.
