What temp ranges?
Do you need/like waterproofing?
Do you like a flexible boot or do you need support?
I use these but your question really doesn't have a lot of context to reply to.


I wear them for early to later but use toe warmers inside for late season.

My favorite above 55 degree hunting shoes are green military grade canvas, tough tennis shoes with traction. The other 6 pairs are always in new just broken in shape and they get replaced when they are not. My wife was bitching about sore feet and bad bots so she agreed with me to go boot/shoe shopping. She found one she liked, I did not tell her what they cost and wanted a back up pair, how can prices go up that fast, but I spent the $250 anyway.

I wear dryshod Arctic Storm high boots for most of hunting season. They are supposed to be good to -50.

I haven't been out hunting while it's still nice out before so not sure what I'll be wearing for bowhunting this year. I was just gunna wear sneakers but the ticks are really bad this year. I'll probably end up wearing regular rubber boots.

I have some mid rise Under Armour boots I bought last summer that are waterproof, don't make my feet sweat and are surprisingly warm in winter down to 15 degrees. Other than finding a replacement for the ridiculously small diameter laces they have given me zero problems and are still in great shape even though I've used them as hiking boots all spring and summer too.

Neoprene dive boots off Amazon. I use them with Neoprene socks, Gortex socks or hip waders. They are the best still-hunting/stalking boots I have found because they are very quiet and comfortable in the forest. I do not usually use them in mountainous rocky terrain but I have done it and survived. My ankles get tired if I wear them all day.

I have a 25-year old ? I think - Danner set like Hawkeye II's and they are getting ragged. Real good. Got a similar set of RED WINGs8-10 years ago for backup and they are great TOO.
