Not out of business, just no longer making or repairing pac boots

Sad to see so many good things come to an end!! :bash:

But hey!! we are saving the trees from loggers so we can watch them go up in flames!! :yike:

I think they are a bit heavy but my son loves his Hoffmans and he's had and used them every season for years.

Post by: boneaddict on January 17, 2018, 12:54:02 PM: On a side note. I love their store(whites in Spokane). Those full mount wolves are impressive.

I bought mine at Clark’s in Colville. I wonder if they are still there. I bought a couple high end things from them and I still have and use them. Whites boots though, they were the real deal.

Post by: jackelope on January 17, 2018, 05:07:13 PM: I had started a thread recently after freezing my toes off in a ton of snow goat hunting. The consensus was Schnee's or Hoffman's as I recall.

Post by: RB on January 17, 2018, 05:54:59 PM: I have used Schnees products for years and they always have had excellent quality. If you ever get a chance to visit the showroom in Bozeman Montana the gun room is flat out amazing!

Post by: mountainman on January 17, 2018, 06:10:26 PM: Dealt with Whites in my days raising appaloosas. Resoled all my packers (lace ups) with vibrams. Great boots, great warranty, great service. But for cold weather, Schees are the way to go👍

Have a pair that are close to 15 years old, and a brand new pair in the box in the closet but might have to see if they have any extra liner's.
