You know this, and you've apparently experienced this several times. So maybe stop wearing boots when flying? I always carry a pocket knife, but not when flying. Not just because I want to avoid anal probing, but also out of courtesy towards everyone who is behind me in the security theatre queue.
- Klathmon 8y agoYou are assuming they don't need or want the boots for any reason. I've flow places with 4 laptops before, not because I think it's fun to inconvenience everyone in line, but because I needed them for where I was going. If I was flying somewhere that I needed boots, I'd probably try to wear them to avoid having them pretty much take up most of my carry on space...
- Broken_Hippo 8y agoThe major difference is that one is basic clothing and the other is something you just have with you. I shouldn't have to buy special clothes to fly. (I happen to own a pair of athletic shoes as well as boots, however, my spouse only owns boots. We don't invest much in clothing). On the other hand, I don't really find it to be much of a bother. My boots stay on decently without tying the laces and I can usually do a proper lacing when I'm out of the way.
