Yup. Doesn't change the bulk one bit since they're dressy leather boots, no padded tongue or collar.
No discernable wear on my Chelsea Nomads, which I use daily in order to break the trend of "Agent-Casual Salomons" and look more the part for my department's greater goal. It wore a little bit on my Higgins Mill boots, but only in one spot, very lightly......not surprising since Chomexcel is an exceptionally soft, supple leather.
It might be dependent on the ankle rig as well. I use the Rescue Essentials one; have worn it everyday for the last 5 years with the exception of full suits, where I rolled with just a TQ mounted on my Perry Suspenders....ankle rig for everything else, including business casual.

JDD just got a set of AE boots, as well. I don't know if he's tried them with an ankle rig, or what line of boot.
