Lacrosse rubber boots with 800gm thinsulate - Warm and Dry!

Just bought a new pair with 1000gm and side zippers. Haven't tried them out yet.

If it's not wet, I wear a pair of Wal-mart specials.

I've seen the side zipper boots. I tried a pair on a few days ago. 80 bucks. But I can't remember the name brand. I liked them they were easy to take on and off with the side zipper. It had good support but not like a lace up boot. I may have to buy some wool knee socks so the top part of the boot doesn't rub up against my leg. They were rubber so I don't think water will get in ....I can't remember what kind of insulation it had but it was insulated.

Muck Edgewater when it is not icy. Redwing when it is bad out.

Nobody has mentioned Rockys. I have a pair of Rocky Guide, leather from the ankle up, rubber from the ankle down, 400g Thinsulate, lace up, look rough as can be, a treatment of Camp Dry every year and they are good to go, never leaked in 10 years. I hunt from 0 degrees up, after it gets over 50 degrees I just wear a pair of Nike hikers with Gore-Tex.

Joeyman:

You are not far from litchfield Illinois. Go to Rural King and get a pair of Northerner 3 hole insulated rubber boots. Very light. With thin wool socks good for cool weather. With heavy wool socks, good for very cold weather. These are what I wear rabbit hunting in Illinois and missouri.

And they are made in the USA.

All leather Danner's with the Vibram sole. Might cost a little more, but you'll get your money's worth.

I wear these and when the stitching gave out on the first pair Irish Setter replaced them with a new pair. Can't beat that.
good luck finding what you like, Hunter

I love my Muck boots, but not when it gets too warm. Above 50 with sun shining down they get a little warm, but my feet do not get cold. I like Rocky boots for warmer weather hunting. 200 gram thinsulate is all I like in them though. Works good for me to have 2 pair of waterproof boots for different temps.

I just bought a pair of Bogs from Nightlite (Blaze minus 50) so far i really like them. They are extreamly liteweight and comfortable. They are like the Muck boot.
