I have always worn Rocky boots but I am tired of them leaking after very little use. What kinds do you guys wear? I really want something like a hiking boot as snake boots are too hot for me. They must be WATERPROOF!!!

I've worn keen hiking boots some this year. Waterproof so far, very light and comfortable. They are only just above the ankle boots though.

My Rocky's are exactly a year old and they are falling apart. All the seams around the toe are busted lose and if I walk across a field while the dew is still on you can bet ur ass ur feet will be wet.

I had a pair of Rocky snake boots that were awesome, but that was 10 years ago. My next pair did exactly what y'alls are doing. I'm not gonna hunt without snake boots and waterproof is a must. Last year i bought a pair of Lacrosse rubber snake boots. Been good, so far. Fyi, i walk several miles in them each hunt.

I have danner pronghorns. They are 6 years old, use turkey & deer hunting. Best I have ever had. They made some changes, I seen em @ marks but I didn't put them on to see if they were about the same. I wish i had bought another pair to put back for when I wear these out. I have decided to get russell moccisan turkey boots next tho, I had them measure me up at nashville. I do love my Danners though! On the waterproof,anytime you poke a hole making a stich you have a place for water to get in no matter what.

If waterproof is the mosst important thing to you followed by snakeproof, the the lacrosse mudlites that are snakeproof are what youre looking for

I wish I knew which boot to recommend. I have had tons of different snake boots as I wear them hunting and I work in them too. The Rocky boots will not hold up, the Danner boots will last a little bit longer but they are expensive. I do like a boot that has more leather cause atleast you can stay waterproof longer by using mink oil.

I use Saloman hiking boots camoflauged with mud and pollen! Real comfy for alot of walking.

I have been wanting to get some snake boots and the Danners look good but for the price they better hold up. Plus im a hot natured person so I think snake boots would cause a pool of sweat in my boots. Anybody have issues with the heat of snake boots?

I wear my tony lama TLX work boots. they are broken in and have some good tread on them. If I am in some thick stuff I got some red head snake boots I got a few years back that are pretty good.

I use the 7" lacrosse burlys. Not a lot of hiking where we are and it's pretty flat.

Get out your pocketbook and order a pair from Russell Moccasin Company. $400 plus pair of boots but will last.

Remember not all Rocky boots are equal. If you buy the Rocky snake boot that Bass Pro (not the Rattlers) carries, it's made to higher specs than their other models (Bass Pro demands higher quality). I'm working on year three of the lace/zip model they sold three years ago - waterproofing and stitching is just fine. At least twice each season, I also spray them down with a waterproofing spray. Best snake boots I've ever owned bar none.

Muck Boots have a snake boot in the works and may be released late fall.... Also, handmade and measured to U Russell boots are the ultimate... Mine are 7/8 years old and look like new and are waterproof as well.

I have Danner GTX snake boots. Saturday I was in water almost to the top and my boots at the end of the day were dry as a bone. This is the second year I have used them. They are also holding up good.
