I've had a dozen of those boots and got a couple brand news ones stashed in my closet,  I like them.....but I'll reach for the new S2V's every time without a doubt.

Went with the kenetrek mountain extreme non insulated.  I decided that with the correct sock choice, these boots will work great.  When wearing thin, everyday Costco socks, which I would wear with my old boots since the had 600g of insulation, they had a little heel movement.  When wearing a medium hunting sock, they felt perfect.  Since they are non insulated I will be wearing a thicker sock regardless, and I never felt my feet were to hot in the 600 gram Danners I was used to.  Overnighted with amazon prime so I can start breaking them in over the 4th and be ready for some scouting trips!!!  I will have the Danners rebuilt this Fall and use them when the temps are really cold.

Dinner has made in the USA (like the super rainforest which I can get three years hunting and working underground utilities everyday) and assembled in USA like the quarry.

Took some rather pointed questions with the salesman at the renting landing scanner store to find that out. Explains why my quarry boots were no good. Apparently danner puts the metal on in Portland and most everything else is Chinese.

Switched back to the super rainforest and have never had an issue as long as I keep them greased and clean. I watch guys in my crew go through three or more pairs just working or just hiking before I need to replace mine.

Yeah but aren't you the guy who just sits in the truck and drinks coffee while the rest of the guys work?   :chuckle: :chuckle:

I had the old style danners until they wore out then switched to Scarpa Wrangell. Love them but they are very stiff.

Anybody have advice on the fit of scarpas? the Euro sizing confuses me and I'm basically a 13.5 shoe size
