Getting a new pair of boots

Postby Eric Haynes » Tue Nov 27, 2012 7:25 pm

I'm finally about to retire my LaCrosse insulated rubber boots. Had them for 5 years which is a very long time considering they were only $80. Looking to spend a little more this time because I want something a little more breathable for sweating, and more comfortable. Not really looking into Muck boots, they just don't work here and I've already got a couple pairs.

Any suggestions?

Never heard of them but I looked them up. Might as well buy a Yeti cooler :lol: But really, if you are gonna get me to spend $200 plus on a boot it better be able to take a beating.

Red Wing should make a rubber boot. If it would be anything like their work boots, I'd spend the cash in a second.

I misread the title and got excited. Thought you were sending your wife under the knife for a 'tune-up'.
Carry on.

Indeed. I have always had a pair of Red Wings. They make durable boots. I even like the Worx line during the summer.

I find myself going right back to the Lacrosse Burly boots. The other muck type boots just get shredded in no time. Just haven't been able to get away from what works.

Burlys are what I've had. Durable and relatively cheap, but I can't say they are very comfortable.
