Bought a pair of Danner Elkhunters
« on: January 11, 2012, 02:40:20 AM »
I purchased a pair of Danner elkhunter boots..they came with a heel/arch support u can put in boot. There is no boot insole inside so one would be standing on the plastic itself which I see not being comfortable. I am in the market for a boot insole and I know there is alot of them out there..wanting to see what are the best ones out there people have had experience using.

super feet....green or orange, whichever tickles your fancy. they have an awesome deep heel cup, good arch support, and they last a long time.


I've heard the lathrop and sons foot bed are good but i havent gotten my hands on them yet. they are wierd because they will give you zero support.

what i've really wanted to do was see if i could glue a set of lathrop and sons footbeds to the top of some green superfeet so that i would have the best shock absorbsion cushion technology combined with the best support and shock absorbsion through great fit.

Try them as they are first. You might be surprised at how confortable they are. Everyone is a little different but I have put alot of miles on my Elkhunters with the stock factory heel cup and loved every minute of it. The airbob sole on mine is soft enough to provide all the cushioning I need. :twocents:

Those boots look awesome. Good choice I have heard good things about them. When my Fanned Frontiers die someday I will replace them with the elk hunters. As said before you can't go wrong with green superfeet. I have them in all my boots. Best $35 I ever spent.

I am on the danner website and all I see is Elk Ridge? Can you send me a link to these elk hunters?

Thanks

The only place I've seen the elk hunters are in  cabelas. that's were I ordered mine .I wore them just about everyday for a year between work and hunting and fishing. The arch supports that came wiy the boots are great if you have a high arch due the fact that danners are flat in the foot beds. I would recommend trying them for a couple days befor just writing them off. I could not notice them in my boots but I noticed when they were not in there.

You won't have room in the boots for your feet. Aside from that it'd probably be great.
