Default RE: Lacrosse Rubber Boots

I have 5 pairs of LaCrosse boots all the way from uninsulated to Ice Kings. They make them in China now and they won't last like they used to when they were made in Wisconcin. I do have a new pair of alpha burleys in 800 gr and they are good boots but won't last like the old ones. I use them for hunting and then ice fishing almost every day and I get about 2-3 years out of them before they start to crack. The old ones used to last 10 years easy. I complained to LaCrosse once and sent them a pair of 2 year old burleys that cracked at the ankle and they sent me a new pair back that cracked after another 2 years. I think my next pair of rubber boots will be Muck Woodys. I did buy a pair of Cabelas 2000 gram rubber boots for ice fishing last year and they were warm but not as comfortable as the LaCrosse.
