I have always used LaCrosse Burleys (olive drab green/chevron soles) but a few years ago, I bought a pair of the Realtree Hardwoods camo Burleys with the airbob type soles. I wore them about 1 day and that was it! They felt like cement blocks on my feet compared to the original Burleys! I did like the airbob sole better than the chevron soles, but the extra bulk and weight was a killer! I relegated the camo boots to treestand use where not much walking is involved and have gone back to the plain 'ole Burelys. They are hard to beat for turkey hunting, IMO!
