Not sure what your climate is there. I use insulated rubber boots and they work like a charm + no scent.

I bought a pair ofLacrosse hunting boots and they were the best investment yet. Now everybody I hunt with has a pair. They keep you warm and dry and they are affordable...:D:D:D:D

Ive always ordered my boots from Cabelas, they seem to be a good deal for the money. They hold up as long as I want them to. For 80 bucks, I got 110 gram thinsulate insulation, with about half and half leather and gortex.

Theycan be for cooler weather (in Iowa)through cold (15-0degrees) with two pairs of wool socks. They will replace them if somethinghappens within reason.

I currently have Danner Proghorns and they are very good boots, When these need to be replaced I'm going to buy Muck Boots. I hear alot of good things abount them & there light.

You are not too terribly far away from Green Top in Richmond and also Bas Pro in Hampton. They both have a wide selection of boots to try on or order online. I hunt in Southhampton Va. our climates are very similar and I have a pair of Lacross rubber boots like the other post stated and I also have a pair of the Redhead Cardora leather(not sure of the spelling) boots from Bass Pro. With our mild winters, my feet never get cold.

Muck boots all the way. In my mind there are none better. I have two pair. The Fieldmaster for early season and turkey and the Woody Max for colder weather. They are super light and don't throw off that strong rubber scent like some boots do. They are 100% waterproof and warm. They feel like you are wearing tennis shoes. I will never wear anything else while hunting. Go try a pair on. You'll be amazed how comfortable and light they are. They are light yet sturdy and very durable.

i love muck boots for being so comfortable but their durability is Horrible. i used them for one week in the woods and they already have rips and holes all over them.granted im a coon hunter and i put any boot threw its paces,walking miles a nightgoing threw brier's and rose buches constantly to get to my dogs,but i still thought they would hold up longer than that. the best boot i have ever used would be lacross burly's. those boot and very comfortable, and it takes me one heck of a long time to wear a pair out and i hunt just about every day/night of the season.

Of all the "stuff" on the market, you know, calls, scents, snake oil and health tonic, there is only one product that I can say that I know with out a single bit of doubt, worked as good or better than expected, and that, is rubber boots my man.

Now run along, and go get you a pair...

RE: hunting boots
 

I use danner proghorns for cold weather and rubber lacrosse bootsfor early season I love both pairs

My Irish Setters have held together well, but after 2 years they were no longer waterproof, more like water resistant, applying a treatment only lasts so long. Seams and soles are still great, they are sturdy yet comfortable, just not waterproof. Not knocking them, great boots, and when I say two years thats alot of use, I only use them for hunting, but they've seen alot of miles.
