i preferred rocky until this last pair. the soles crumbled. looking into a new pair before fall but they won't be rocky's.
 
Irish Setter makes one tough boot but they usually weigh more compared to others. Danners are a great boot as well. I'm trying to stay with American made boots.
 
I have had 2 pairs of Rockys that the soles crumbled to pieces. Danner boots are the way to go, they may cost more up front but they will outlast Rockys by a few seasons, and are more comfortable IMO.
 
Rocky Wellingtons. I have 2 pairs and yea the soles on one pair turned to dust. I have had that one pair for 8 years and paid $50 to have them resoled. I wear them everday. They still don't leak.
 
lacrosse wont have nothing else. the insulated ones i have are going on there 9th year
 
I just bought a pair of Itasca boots before turkey season. I used them all day saturday and sunday and i was very pleased. They are comfortable for doing a lot of walking and they kept my feet dry warm. I was very pleased with a $50 pair of boots. Now the real test is seeing how long they last.
 
I bought a pair of Camo Herman Survivors at Wal Mart last year for $25. They use to be a pretty good boot. I just don't like lace up boots, but for $25 I couldn't pass up. 1200 grams of insulation ,too.
 
have a pair of rocky now that leave my feet soakin wet. still under warranty but you have to have receipt of purchase or rocky wont do anything. i say stay away from a boot that leaks after 40 days in the field . looking for something to replace them with now.
 
and i have never seen a pair of rockys that didn't squeak. i have never had a leak issue(3 pairs over 20 yrs.)and if the soles hadn't crumbled on the last pair, i would be buying another pair of rockys.

I got a pair of those but mine only have 600 grams of thinsulate. The seem to work ok but my feet still get cold. Does anyone make a boot with 1 million grams of thinsulate???? ;)
I wear lacrosse alpha burly in the early season.

Some Danner boots are now made in China. They are junk. Make sure your Danner's are made in the USA.

That's the truth. I had a pair of the pronghorns and they started to leak on me last bow season, so I sent them back and they returned me a new pair and now after using them only through turkey season they are starting to leak. Made in China.
 
I bought the Herman Survivors also. The first thing I did with them was buy a rubber over slippers for them at the CO-OP. I will probably put the 9.99 rubber slippers on whatever boot that I deer hunt in from now on. They are warmer, do not leak and it helps cover scent displaced by the boots.
 
which muck's boots do i need??? im tired of hunting and my toes getting cold.. Most mornings its between 10-25 in the mornings i hunt deep in claiborne co.. and my toes get numb.. any help is greatly appreciated.
 
I have had Rocky, Muck and Boggs. Other than them being to hot in early season the Muck really out performed the rest.
