Looking for my Danner Jackel GTX boots today in the mail . I will let you know how they feel when I get them. I've had Rocky, Muck and Bog snake boots . They were all good boots but don't seem to last me more than 2 years. I'm paying a lot for the Danners I hope they will hold up !
Don't worry about how long they will last, just appreciate how comfortable they are or you will be seriously disappointed. I destroyed 3 pairs of jackals in less than 2 years hunting and working in them.
They are made to be a stalking boot. The bottoms are so soft that they wear out almost instantly in rough terrain and the uppers will bust in that seam that runs down just behind the toes where they flex............happened the same way to all three pairs of mine.
They are wonderful on your feet, but they just don't hold up enough to justify what they cost.
