I have both and they have both served me well. I will say for an all leather boot I liked the Danner better. I have the Danner "Trophy" model and compared them to the "Elk Hunter", for me the Danners were the better boot. They have been superb and replaced my old pair of Danner "Canadians" that served me very well for many years. The Irish Setters I have are the Trackers (800 grams) and I have been pleased for the 5 years I have owned them.

Good Luck
