The type used at BUD/s are Bates 924's. I think they are called bates ultra lights also but not sure.

i've been chatting with a few of the SEAL members on this site about this, buying boots and training with them, the recommend that you do not. They said that the likelyhood of injuring yourself is greater, and the bates you get at BUD/S are just like shoes anyways. Just sharing what i've learned.
