Vivo forest tracker esc durability

[Ajsomp]

Full season with my tracker esc’s which includes rucking and preparation for my hunts, coastal deer hunting and colorado mule deer hunt. By far the most comfortable boots I have owned. It was a real testament in the mountains as I felt so much more control when walking. I’ve had several guys ask me about them seeing me wear them and I honestly can’t find anything bad to say other than they aren’t US made (not much is). Paired with the right socks and I feel like with the exception of sitting and glassing in extreme cold, I can go all day on the same pair of socks. I will be looking for deals on BF to get another pair just to have as a back up for when I wear these out

Marty mine are the same, though took more miles, haven’t dealt with it yet but will probably try some 3m 5200 since I already have it, repaired some wader boots with it when nothing else worked!

Got ya. You plan to do any surface prep? Plan to build up a rand?

Is the 3M 5200 similar to AquaSeal? I'll have to take a look at it. Thanks!

The 3m is a marine adhesive, it is insanely durable, learned about it from the wader company high and dry, you could literally cut waders up and glue them back together with the stuff.

Harder to find in black and there are a couple versions of it, go to their site they have a good description of it, a rand would be a good idea, the toes on those boots take a beating, but I love wearing them!

They recommend the 400uv for the fabric and the 5200 for the rubber boot.

I used the 5200 for the sole and making a rand on a pair of Asolo, worked well!
