Before I got the Maine Hunting Shoes, I wore SealSkin waterproof socks and barefoot running shoes. Feet would get tired and was conscious of cacti.

Are they watertight with the hippers? Or do the hippers just prevent hitchhikers from entering the boots?

The Hippers are hip waders so they are fully waterproof. Mine are getting old so they leak but all I use them for is crossing streams so that's okay. The neoprene boots are tight enough that not much water gets inside. I ordered them two sizes larger than normal for proper fit with waders or thick socks. Unfortunately I don't think they sell Hippers anymore, not sure. But there are other stockingfoot waders you can buy then just roll them down and secure with a a velcro strap. Stockingfoot hip waders also work very well as rain paints then just roll them down when you don't need them.

Spray your clothes with permethrin (all of ‘em, including socks and underwear.) Also, spray up inside your pants legs to the knee. No ticks. It’s harmless to mammals (and you, too! 😬

Permethrin is hard to get in Canada. The gubmint recommends it for anyone at risk of getting g Lyme disease, and its approved for use on military clothing. But its also illegal to import or manufacture permethrin or permethrin treated products in Canada.
Looks like its also approved for use on horses. I'm hoping I can get some of the horse permethrin at the local feed store but I'm not holding my breath

Hope them mocs got nail soles,they can get mighty slick...
We have some very tall and clean straight up basswood trees in our woods. With my Widow maker climbing tree stands they were perfect, except once up there I had nothing to hold on to. one fellow built an illegal tree stand and got to it using lineman gear. He made a racket coming through the woods but was surprisingly efficient for getting up that tree.
gum rubber patterned soles, but on dry oak leaves, i am the fastest down hill thing in the woods. I am much quieter when i don't fall down. not so much the thud of me hitting the ground, the volume comes from my operatic baritone tenor voice and the tirade of full volume cuss words when i am getting up.
