FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I am looking in to getting a pair of Danner Elk Hunter series boots. What do all of you wear?

RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I like my Wolverine Caribou boots. They are by far the lightest boots ive ever warn. Theyve gone through two seasons with lots of abuse, and still pull through. Full camo, even the sole. I use to be a big Rocky fan, but ive totally switched to Wolverine now.

Danner Pronghorns

Rocky. I have some wolverine's, and the soles are too hard. Hold snow and don't stick to ice.

:) Last 2 seasons my son and me have been using NEOS by Thoroughgood. They come in a variety of styles, very light weight and can be purchased insulated or non-insulated. Some are as tall as 16 inches and I cannot say enough good about them. Just love them.

had cold feet all my life bought rocky boots 5 years ago , never an issue anymore!
seems they DO work best with the rocky socks, though, anyone else notice this? moose |
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
i have rocky blizzard stalkers and they are the warmest i have found for myself.. Only $100.00 a pair too. Very warm boots..

Cold weather Army issue Mickey Mouse boots. Can't find a better boot.
|
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
i stick with my rubber boots i like all the scent elimination i can get.....
|
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I use the NEOS that jimpok61 was talking about, but not for hunting. They are really cool, just slip over you shoes. I wear sandals with mine.

RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
It just drives me crazy when my boots that I wear will keep my feet cold and sweaty out in the woods! Any suggestions?
|
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I wear Danner Trophys. Not to offend anyone but I use to sell boots and Danner is 3 times the boot Rockys are. The shank in Rockys just dont offer the support Danners do. Pick them up and twist them you will see what I mean. If you are in uneven terrain you need support. Also Danner actually does strength and stretch tests on the leather it has to be a certain thickness before they even consider using it! I sold both boots and Danner just seem to hold up much better. Its been awhile since I have sold them but if you pay the little more money you won't be disappointed.

bow huntr,
What kind of boot and what kind of sock? If you wear white cotton socks you could have the best boots in the world and your feet will still be wet and cold. You need a good wicking sock. And as far as a boot, gore-tex works well as its waterproof and breathable. Depend on what kind of hunting you are doing. |
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
It gets really cold here during late season. So I go for warmth. This year I bought A Cabelas Outfitter Series Boot. They are great for staying warm and for comfort!;)

RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
When it is cold I wear My LaCrosse Burly 800's. Very warm and toasty.
When it is warmer, I wear some light weight tennis shoes or sneakers. Usually grungy with plenty of wear left in them, but never worn. Keep them scent free and wrapped always. |
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I have a pair of Itasca Snake Boots that are uninsulated for spring hunting, and Wolverine 800 gram boots for the winter and colder weather...love both pairs. And yes, I'm anti-Rocky...

my military micky mouse boots!! mmmmmmm warmth
|
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
Besides my rubber boots.......I really like my Wolverine Huntmasters. Once I got them broke in they were great.
|
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I love my Wolverine's, all leather, and scent free. They don't take on mud either. Just walk through some wet grass and evrything comes right off!;)
|
RE: FAVORITE HUNTING BOOTS?
I have been wearing Rocky's for about the last 15 years. I think they make a great boot and it is very comfortable to wear...almost like tennis shoes. As far as socks, I saw a post on one of these boards recommending merino wool socks. I went and bought a couple of pairs and now I wonder where they have been all my life. I will never buy another type of sock for use in my boots. The are very warm and provide lots of extra cushion. I can't recommend them highly enough!!
