I have really been super pleased with with my Lowa ZEPHYRs for early season hunting and my late season stuff in Kansas. I am going to look into some Salomons or the Kenetreks.
I liked my Solomon XA PRO 3D Ultras last year but I'm considering the Solomon Wings Sky GTX boots this year unless someone on here can sell me on a different boot.. ???
La Sportiva Wildcat GTX's baby. They'll probly be worn out by the end of next season and then I'm on the look again Innov 8's look nice. After last season, definitely sticking with a trail runner for early season.
Solomon XA PRO 3D Ultras, like aggie for all my summer hiking/scouting/packrafting, for hunting has been all Lowas Sheephunters for the past 5 years. Going to try some stuff from Hanwag this year though and see if my feet still like me.
Someone tell me why these heavier looking boots like the Hanwag are better than the Solomon boots.. I have never seen them so I honestly want to learn. thanks
Aggie, Solomons are great for lightweight backpacking and hiking. But when you have to haul 100+ pounds of critter and gear off the mountain on your back you'll want a bit more support than the Solomon's offer.
kennetreck mountain extremes NI. i wear them year round.my feet dont get very cold even in the dead of winter.these things fit me so great and have so much support that there probably all il will ever wear.if it aint broke dont fix it right
