Let's talk boots

[EODThree]

Hi Guys, I need some good work boots. I'm looking for waterproof, insulated, goodyear welt, with good "outdoor" traction. I'd like something made in the good old USA that doesn't cost as much as a new car.

Any of you guys have a brand you particularly like?

One Word: DANNER

I like my dura shocks. they are right at $100 so they dont brake the bank.

Red Wing or Timberland PRO

I used to say Red Wing. My favorite pair of boots are Red Wings that I bought in 1990. Sadly, things have changed a lot at Red Wing. Most of their stock comes from overseas and they can not fit me in any of their boots now. I have narrow feet so it is a problem for me.

+1 to Danner. Excellent product, excellent service.

I like the Rocky boots. $150 will getcha some good boots. Goodyear welt, gore tex, insulation...

 

[buckhunterbb]

Redwing, some still made in usa. I like supersole 2 but not sure about outdoors. Very comfortable on concrete,great traction on wet,oily conditions.Never tried Danners.

 

[Yeah]

The last boot Danner made that I cared for was the Grand Slam. They are still good, if you can find them.

I'll take Meindl Perfekt or Kenetrak Hardscrabble, depending on the terrain.

I have a pair of Ariats that i wear evryday. the most comfortable boot ive ever worn. very durable. however they are a cowboy style boot so their not for everyone.

I have insulated Red Wings.... LOVE them.. at most my socks have got a LITTLE damp....

 

[duger]

don't believe i will buy anything but Danner ever again a little pricy but worth it

 

[Sylvain]

Sorry I read "let's talk boobs".
Wrong thread I guess!

Rocky or danner. Both very good boots.

I wear some from Halls. Think my last pair cost me $235. I wear them over my normal shoes alot. They are extemely comfortable, and very durable.

Being a deer hunter all I wear are LaCrosse Alpha Burleys. Uninsulated for early season and then insulated 2 sizes too big for cold weather. I then wear polypropolene sock liners and good wool socks. The two sizes bigger allows me to wiggle my toes. Too tight a boot allows your feet to get cold as air is the best insulator.

i like my red wings still made in usa my third pair

I'm fond of my Carolina's. Very waterproof and comfy. However the most comfortable boots I have are my Bates side zip tactical duty boots. Check out lapolicegear.com . They have a nice selection of boots and great prices.
