Dan Newcombe 58 Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Meinld, Dovre, Glockner, Taiga all get my vote. Havent had others other than Lundhag Professionals which i dont wear a great deal. Havent tried the HanWag, Lowa etc but my Mrs had the Altberg and seems to like them well enough. Not as comfy as the meindl but half the money on ebay! Quote Link to post
zahid 0 Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 what boot you want it's fully depends on situation.There are many kinds of hunting boots like cold weather hunting boots,warer proof,snake prof,warmest hunting boots,Deer hunting boots etc.If you go to hunt in the water you should select warer proof hunting boots like baffin water proof hunting boots.Happy hunting life Quote Link to post

Neal 1,857 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 I really rate my Lundhags and they have the added benefit of no lining to go wrong which means they're more breathable. You get your waterproofing from the treatment you add to them and you vary the heating by varying your thickness of second sock (with a thin woolen sock next to your foot). Ultimately though the old adage is true...the best boot is one that fits! Quote Link to post
Mickey Finn 3,008 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 I've had good luck with Danner boots. Mine are 12 years old and still OK. I was looking at Kenetrek boots. Has anyone had experience with them? http://www.kenetrek.com/Kenetrek-Mountain-Boots/products/12/ Made in Italy I believe. 1 Quote Link to post
