Apples and oranges.  Irish Setters much better and more comfy. :twocents:  Romeo boot?  What is that, high backed Romeo?  Like Romeos but price keeps going up and once wet they seem to stink after a bit?  I quit em.
MAGA!  Again..

On my second set of Romeos. Took me six years to wear them out. The sole finally cracked and would let water in when I walked across the yard. I always treated the leather with Obenuafs and it is still in good condition. They make a good house shoe now and I just received my new pair of Romeos. Never had any experience with Irish Setters.

Agreed, my soles wear fast.  Boot is great but I buy new every 2 years due to holes worn thru bottom.  Im ok with that.  I put them thru torture.  Im always dry, warm, and comfy.

Danner super rain forest for work
Danner Pronghorn for hunting (all leather)
Georgia Romeos for casual wear and some work.
Bogs for muddy farm work
Iresh Setter (upland hunter) for, well, upland hunting.
New Balance athletic shoes for athletic activities
Crocks for stepping outside

I have a lot of money in footwear. But your feet are very important. Cold, hurt feet can ruin any activity. And I have no complaints about any product I just mentioned. Take care of them and they will take care of you.

Jackmaster...Ive always had Georgia Romeos but now Danner makes a Romeo. A standard Romeo and a 'high cut' Romeo, just like the Georgia's. A friend has the Danner high cut Romeos and raves about them. But they look a little "metro" if you will. And if you arent aware, Sunbirds in Yelm smokes everyone else in price. Worth the trip for sure.
