Best Knee Boots?
« on: February 21, 2012, 10:00:25 AM »
I've always liked the Xtratuf neoprene's for nonslip comfort and durability, but my last pair only lasted  1 1/2 years, seems they're quality has gone down while their price remains high.
Does anyone have other recommendations for good quality comfortable boot at an affordable price?

I am curious what gave up on your extratuffs? I have a pair that are tenish years old and still haven't cracked. Bummer if they changed a good thing. I hope yours was a fluke.

Servus Men's Max Gray Knee High Rubber Boots.  Cost about $25.00 a pair and they last me about 2 years, they are more comfortable than lacrosse boots .  I do 90% of my hunting in a pairs of these (on westside)  I'm not a big fan of extra-tuff boots not enough support.  I grew up on a dairy farm so i've tried most of them.

FYI - Check EBAY for the XtraTuffs - save about 30% or so.  I bought a pair a year and a half ago and they are still in top shape. 

Don't store rubber boots in areas that get UV light all the time - sun light or florescent - that causes them to break down quick. :twocents:
May that for which I prepare never come to pass.
