    First Lite Obsidians, better than Kanabs but…

    These are the best pants for warm weather, period. Snags are the main enemy, mine have been surprisingly durable otherwise. I hate, hate, hate the waist sizing with the garbage elastic and the suspenders are worthless unless g-string fit is your thing (not judging). My buddy came from the Kanab...

    Crispi Laponia vs Altidude/nevada

    I wish I could help you out here but I've never owned or tried on any of the Lapponia models. I have owned the Nevada since 2011 and subsequently the Altitude as my current go-to. My feeling is the Altitude bridges the gap between a lightweight boot and something heavier duty without sacrificing...

    Foot growth with age

    It's a thing, I wasn't aware of it until it happened. I'm a full size + (10.5 to 11.5 / 12) from high school to being 50. I used to have a very high arch and narrow foot but it's flattened and spread out a bit so now they're just low-volume and it's a bit easier to find good fitting boots and...

    Hunting Boot PTSD

    I've spent a small fortune over the past couple decades on boots and boot accessories in my quest for something that would function for my backcountry needs without leaving me with debilitating blisters and / or foot pain. I've been cautiously optimistic about the same pair, I used the Altitudes...

    Crispi Altitude GTX Sizing

    I used mine this last season on one very wet elk hunt (snow every day and several creek crossings) as well as one snowshoeing trip. Zero water ingress. I really like these boots.

    Time to say goodbye to old friends.

    Understatement I'm a Crispi believer, for the most part, I've had really good luck with the Altitude model this year. I've owned the Nevada since 2012 which I took on a sheep hunt and soles really took a beating, hopefully they've updated and hardened them a bit since

    SLIK Pro CF-635 Mod

    I've gone back and forth with my center post. I am back to using it as it is easier to get height adjustments on the side of a steep hill vs having to readjust the legs all the time and having them right under your chin I had a little mountain accident a few years back and I think my takeaway...

    Sheep feet insoles

    I got to take mine out for 8 miles this last weekend. I've had them since last year but was deciding on a new boot so maiden voyage for both boot and insoles. I'm happy with the performance so far, they aren't magic and it didn't feel like I was walking around on a cloud but I did have...

    300 WSM vs 300 win mag

    I have a Remington 700 in 300 WSM in a McMillan Edge stock. The package is crazy light, which was the intended goal. It also boasts some rather robust recoil, so much so, that I throw the weight and balance off with suppressor screwed on to the end. I dislike brakes. I've been lucky enough to...

    OV Bino Harness Strap Discomfort

    The straps are too narrow on the OV, I had the same struggles. And finding aftermarket 3/4" buckles / hardware isn't as easy as you'd imagine. Seeing all the advancements in bino harnesses has been pretty awesome, I don't see the point in continuing on the pain train if it isn't working out. I...
