Super rainforest for me.  They are a work boot and that is what I use them for but they are great.

i own a set of pronghorns and a set of 10" super rainforests the pronghorns are nice and light but made for light use. i tore up the leather on those and wore the soles off them in 10 months.  The rainforests are the way to go, a little expensive but last a long time.

I've been wearing the same pair of Trophy's for 9 years now. I love them. For me they work well enough for all seasons. Little warm during early bow, just barely cold toes in snow shoes in 2-1/2 feet of snow last weekend in Methow Valley. The bob soles work well in mud but lousy on wet rock, quiet in the woods. I have never had wet feet in them the entire 9 years so far and I don't avoid creeks. I keep them in good care with the Danner waterproofer and leather conditioner, never walk on pavement as the bob sole is very soft. I probably put about 100 woods miles per year on them and they are very comfortable. They are will worth the $300 + and Made In The USA! Good luck on your next pair.

I'm going to be in Portland next week, and I'm going to stop by the Danner outlet store.  Thay way, I can try on most everything that they make, and then I will see what feels good to me.  Thanks for all the input.

If you go to the Portland store I think they will still measure your feet and make you a custom boot for no extra charge. One foot is a little wider or smaller? They'll make em fit right. I've never done it but always wanted to. On my second pair of Super Rainforests. First pair leak like crazy but fit like slippers. Bought them in 1995, still wear them today. My second pair is 3 years old and just really starting to get comfy...

I have the Pronghorns and they are great. The fit is good and they are very comfortable  right out of the box.

I decided to go with the Trophy's.  I was at the Danner outlet store yesterday and I tried on 6-7 different models.  The Trophy's felt great, and seem like they would last a long time.  I'm going to order them today.  Thanks for all the input.
