How long are your boots lasting?

[5MilesBack]

I'm still using a pair of Zamberlan Dakota 7" high boots that I got in early 2013, so four seasons use now. I don't normally check my mileage in a season, but in 2015 I used my GPS to track every mile. It was over 200 miles for the season at 20+ days hunted. That season was pretty much average for the previous two as well so I figure over 600 miles on them through those three seasons. This season wasn't quite as much as those but I figure the boots have over 700 miles on them now. I'll keep wearing them as long as they hold up because they are by far the most comfortable hunting boots I've worn, and they've been discontinued so I can't replace them with the same thing. I have a pair of this version in a 10" boot, but I much prefer the 7". The best thing about them is they only cost me $86 on clearance......because they were being discontinued....last pair of 13's.

This must be an AI poster......ban it.

I made this post 9 years ago, and somehow it shows now as "Xperimental" posting it here 9 years later. I see that this poster also has some stuff for sale on here........beware.

I bought a pair of white loggers in 1981. They are starting to crack along the top of the toe caps so I use them on dry days. I bought another pair in 2005 and have had to have them resoled once. I need some stiching redone in the back but they ought to be good for another 10-15 years.
