Boots

rmhall17 · Jul 2, 2006

Guys a little help please on boots! I have danner Jackels, very light but non insulated. I am thinking of getting the silvis 8 inch super slam chuck adams signature boot,or the danner 8 inch pronghorn gtx, Irish Setter? ShadowTrek Boots for Men - Insulated. Or maybe something else that someone has used and works. Also I am on a budget. Want to stay at the 150 range. I will be hunting the higher elevations in October in northwest colorado. I know boots can make or break a hunt so please help.

meindl or lowa, you need to raise your limit to at least $200, as you said, boots can make or break the hunt. You spend 5 times more on the gun and the trip, why not buy a great pair of boots like the meindl or lowa. . . You can buy the meindl from cabelas, and lowa on line, but you better hury, they sell out fast durring hunting season!

For insulated pac-boots I have had great luck with my Schnee's, elk hunter models. Under $200 I think.

I have the Rocky LYNX boots and they are so comfortable and well built! Lightweight and offer great support! I would buy anouther pair in a heartbeat! You can get them with 800 grams thinsulate and Gore-tex for around $100 from Cabelas! Don't try and wear them on a mid-August hunt! You get seat right out of them....I tried them last year on an early bowhunt!
