Default Rubber or Something else?

Do you wear rubber boots or something else? I wear rubber which I keep in
a tote along with the rest of my gear. I tape 2 earth scent waffers to the inside
of the tote lid, heck I put 1 inside my bow case to

I don' t wear rubber boots. I was told that they hold smells more so than other materials used for boots.

I don' t go hunting without them I don' t find them to be warm enough for dec, jan. I bought them through cabalas, I don' t remember how many gram' s of thinsulate are in them. I payed $80 for them.

I wear the rocky buckstalkers also with 1000 grams of thinsulate and they are warm maybe to warm in early season.

I was told that they hold smells more so than other materials used for boots.
In my experience I have found just the opposite. I have never had a deer cross my trail and spook while wearing rubber boots. Sometimes they stop and sniff my track but never become alert. When I first started bowhunting i wore several different pairs of leather and canvas boots and always had problems with spooking deer that crossed my trail even when I started using cover scents the deer became alert. I even wear hip waders to a few stands because of the tall grass. I boil green pine needles and bark and put the liquid in a spray bottle to use as a cover scent. Works great.
I just ordered two pairs from Cabelas. They have a new lightweight rubber/neoprene boot uninsulated and one with 600grams of thinsulate for later in the season. Dont leave home withoutem.
