docc8 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Anybody have any suggestions for hunting boots. I would like a boot that is comfortable in cold weather conditions (800 to 1200 gram thinsulate)because I primarily stand hunt but still comfortable for walking for grouse hunting. Any suggestions would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdswacker Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Danner Pronghorn very comfy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augusta Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I will second the Danner Pronghorns. Can't beat them for comfort, just like wearing a pair of tennis shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FISHINGURU Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 if you want the best boot for the cold then get the sascatchawan pac boot from cabelas...just bought a pair of those this weekend and they are awesome...they are water and scent proof and also have a pocket in the liner for toe warmers if you ever need them.

Ryan Becklund Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Danner Pronghorns....when its real cold Rocky snowstalker extreme....can't beat them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNexpoler Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I love my Rocky Blizzard Stalker. 1200 gram. There a little on the heavy side but mine are going on 6 years now and are still in good shape. I use them from hunting, to snowmobiling, to fixing cars in the winter, etc. They do have one small hole in them that slowly leaks. If I had to get new boots I get these same ones. My feet have never gotten cold in the deer stand, with the coldest day being -10 a couple years ago. Of course I've worn them in colder weather then that.

JustLOVEit Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I would just recommend a cheap waterpoof boot, for grouse hunting. Then get a Icebreaker Insulated Boot Blanket® Overboots for when you stand hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odonata Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I just bought Cabelas Arctic Bruins. 1400's and seem like a good buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonefishin11 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I did not like the Pronghorns as they did not fit my feet so instead I bought a pair of Irish Setter Mountain Claws (1000 gram). They are by far the most comfortable boot I have ever worn and they are extremely lightweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FISHINGURU Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 if you want the best boot for the cold then get the sascatchawan pac boot from cabelas...just bought a pair of those this weekend and they are awesome...they are water and scent proof and also have a pocket in the liner for toe warmers if you ever need them. after wearing these now the past few cold days you'd have to sit on stand in -0 temps all day before you'd ever need any toe warmers...i pulled an all dayer and from 6 to 2 twice and my feet have been hot...i under dressed 1 of the days and i shook from being cold but my feet were super warm....i wouldn't even wear this boot unless its under freezing or your a person that gets real cold feet easily.

JEV Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 6 months ago I would have recommended Danner's. I bought a pair of pronghorns last fall after a pheasant trip. I was looking for a light weight waterproof boot and Danners seemed to fit the bill. Fast forward to this fall. Again, on a pheasant hunt and I have to walk a small cattail slew. Water wasn't deep by any means, but needless to say I had wet feet when I was done. I've still been wearing them for deer season, as they're the only boots I have at the time. I'll be sending them back for repair after season. I can't walk by a water puddle without them soaking it up.JEV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1runhotshot Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 woody max Muck Boots...If they didn't work people would not be coping the style and look so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verg Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I had read a ton of good reports on Danner Pronghorns too so I ordered a pair. Man, they are the most comfortable boot I have ever had on. As someone else said, like a pair of tennis shoes. But, they don't fit. They seem to run bit short. I sent back the 13s and ordered 14s and they fit but were now bulkier than I wanted so sent them back too. I ended up getting Cabelas Outfitter Series boot in 600 gram. They are normally $159 and on sale on the HSOforum for $119. Got a pair jsut like them with 2000 gram thinsulate also a couple years ago. They are great boots. Nice leather, good support etc.I reccommend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
