I own two pairs of hunting boots - Hanwag Sirius II GTXs and LaCrosse Granges. The Hanwags are great, they're just too short for lots of mud, snow, briars, etc. Conversely, while the LaCrosses are great at keeping nature out, they cause my right foot to be quite sore and both feet to sweat, regardless of the socks I wear. I wouldn't mind the sweating if the Granges didn't hurt, but they do.
I hunt in New England, so I need something knee-high to replace the Granges with that offers better support and comfort. I see three different options: another kind of knee-high rubber boots; knee-high leather boots; or snake boots.
Happy feet are a must, so I'm not worried about a price range. I am worried about buying a pair of boots and come to find out I don't like them, however. I wear Darn Tough wool socks, usually, so I don't need insulated boots.
I'm thinking either:
*Le Chameau leather-lined rubber boots;
*Dubarry Wexford leather boots; or
*Chippewa snake boots.
Thoughts?
