Gonna roll an ankle in those things
nah, rolled ankles happen when there's little support around the ankle and when you walk with sidewards momentum. Boots stabilize the ankle really well and at that height, you basically walking on stilts rather than heels (plus the sole is rounded to guide your momentum forwards). It's surprisingly comfortable, as long as you don't stand still for too long.
