Cleats or boots for woodsball?

I'm needing some new shoes for woodsball. I play in the Oklahoma D-Day so they need to be able to handle some rough terrain and be some what comfortable for a long time. So in your opinion what would be the best shoes? Cleats, hiking shoes, boots, or whatever else you can think of?

Mid height hiking boots, you get comfort of a sneaker with protection / durability of a boot.

You will probably go with hiking boots, or some kind of combat boot, but I would play in Vibram Five Fingers. They have been great for me in the year and a half or so that I have been wearing them.

I recommend checking out Magnum's boots. I've had their side zip spiders for a couple years and they're still doing well, even with total neglect. Lightweight and come in a couple different styles to suit you.

Whatever you get make sure it has a good outsole. Vibram (for example) vs. the cheap stuff makes a huge difference.
