Danner is not my first choice for when I'm going to be walking a long ways but they'll probably be fine if you're walking shorter distances.

Most "hunting boots" are not that great, in my opinion. Go find a good pair of hiking boots that fit you well. If the lack of camo on your feet is giving you away, you're too close and probably should have shot already.:)

My suggestion is to try and find some locally to try on first. It's tough buying a pair of boots without putting them on your feet.Easy to overlook this timeless advice when you finally become confident of your boot size (mine is 9.5). However, I thought these Danner Vanish boots would be awesome, but the thingies that the bootlace wraps around on the upper part of the boot dug into my calves as I walked. Tried several pairs and always got that result. Good thing I learned that in the store and not after getting a 'deal' on eBay or something.
They look less gay than those danners too :dunno:
Fashion is really important, too. Afterall, most men hiking in the wilderness with blood-smeared clothing and a gun leave doubts about their sexuality. :chuckle:

What you really need to do is block out about 5-6 hours that you can go down and try on everything in the store that has the features you want. Then you will find the boot that works for your foot not your brothers!!
Your feet can be your lifeline in the backcountry so keep them happy.
:yeah:
When your boot hunting don't look at the price tag. Find what's best for you and find a way to pay for them. I have spent a ton of time trying to find a boot that fits me and if your really going to get something you love your going to have to pay for it. That's just my :twocents:
Post by: Rick on August 20, 2009, 08:04:31 PM
Everyone I know raves about Danners. I went to buy a pair and found out they didn't fit my feet worth a damn. The most uncomfortable boot I've ever had on my feet.
I'd never order a pair of boots online unless I'd tried them locally first.

thanks for the advice guys
and I'm only archery hunting deer this year just fyi
Wait a minute, don't you have the multi season tag? What is the muzzleloader for that you just "picked up"? Man I thought you were stoked for the MST? Or do you change your mind every 10 seconds?

Are you sure you will be able to feel the gas pedal and brake with those? :dunno:
That is funny right there

Red wing (Elk Hunter )and White boot's are my first and second choice I do have a different pair of boots for every week of the year my wife told me I have a boot and coat problem. I don't think there is a problem with having three pairs of the same boot I just don't understand what she is talking about.
a man who likes shoes (boots) she should be happy and have a closet full of her own shoes ;)

I sure love my ASOLOS.
Did you buy them based on looks, how they worked for someone else or because you could feel the gas pedal as well as the brake? :chuckle: :dunno: :chuckle:

The Kenetreks are great boots and will last a lot longer than the danners. I can get you a better deal than $355. Let me know if you're interested. Thx lint5564@yahoo.comI love my Kenetrek Mountain boots, took a little break in time but are in a league of their own, far better than any Danner that I have owned and worth the price. :twocents:
