Rubber boots!!! I have used them for the past few years and they are a wonderful thing... that and some fox urine cover scent on the bottoms and you are well on you way to going "Scentfree as you can be" The first time I used these I had an 8 point buck come so close the my stand I had to spread my feet so I could continue to video straight down through the stand.... and he never had a clue I was standing right over top of him... Spend the money they will last you for a long time and it is a good investment... I bought Rocky's 18" boots with 1000 grams of insulation, and they keep my feet warm all winter I never even use my leather boots....
