Depends on how many Benjamins you’re wanting to drop. I am on year 5 with my kenetrek mountain extremes & still dry. My son & huntin buddy have 2 years on theirs & they are trash.🤷♂️ Might check out the Hoffman explorer 8’sI just looked up Hoffman boots,never had heard of them. I like the looks. It looks like they're out of Kellogg idaho and I like that. How insulated are the insulated. I prefer 200-400.

I’d scratch Irish setter and Georgia off the list directly.

Crispi Nevada’sI looked up Crispi boots. I had never heard of them. I guess I've had my boot blinders on. Made in Utah by the looks of it. I like the wild rocks. I like a lightly insulated waterproof boot. I hunt the Westside and I'm kind of a baby when my feet get cold. They never seem to get hot though.

What’s the application? What are you wanting to do with them?hunt and hike and fish. Outdoor activities. I wear redbacks for work. So no oil or grease on the hunting boots.

Spend the money and go with the GTX for 330-350. You won't regret it. :tup:

Not all boots fits the same.
I ended up buying the model that REI had as it was on a good sale that day. But I like their Hunter models with the taller boot option that you can only buy online. Mine has lasted many years.

They’re imported through Utah. They’re made in Italy. The Italians know how to make a good boot. Kentreks are made in Italy, as well.

That's a mountaineer boot and will be very stiff. May not be the right boot for West side hunting. Heavy loads in steep country is what mountaineer boots Excell at. Flat ground can cause fatigued sore feet.

After hundreds and hundreds of miles in boots of all price ranges I have found nothing that will last me more than a year. Zero. I hike all year in all the terrain types the northwest offers and my system is down to this: snake boots in the brush for birds and weed eating. Rubber boots in snow. Cheap sale merrel trail runners everywhere else until they blow out in 6-9 months at best. I spend my money on good merino wool socks and liner socks, and inserts that last longer than the shoes. That said, i’d Rather hike ten miles twice with 25 pounds than once with 50, so I don’t need monster ankle support. Good luck in your hunt for the perfect footwear! Just a system that works for me after trying every shoe I could find looking for that bulletproof footwear.I take it you have never tried Good boots :chuckle:

Hah! Man I know it sounds that way but i’m Brutal on shoes and convinced there’s not one worth more than 100$ to be found anywhere unless you only wear it two weeks a year.
