Hunting Boots

[waveslider]

I hunt "a little" (snickering) and switched to Kennetreks a while back after giving up on Danner and trying Meindl and Zamberlan.

I have three pair- a "low top" hiker that I use for general duty and simple hiking, an uninsulated pair of "high tops" for early season Pronghorn and Deer and then an insulated pair of "high tops" for late season deer, elk and upland game.

I did find that the key to my comfort and success was to explore a couple different insole inserts that made the boots go from OK to outstanding. Like any hunting boot, they took some breaking in. Probably about 10 or 15 miles.

I screwed around for a long time with $150-200 boots. All junk.

I have 2pr of Kenetrek Mountain Extreme. One insulated, one not. Best choice I’ve ever made.

You want extreme? I wore a pair of these at 54 degrees below zero!

Notice the air valve on the side, regulates the temperature and moisture and they won't blow up at 20,000 feet in your C-130J.

Still have mine, I wear them every year on the Toys For Tots Ride.

I’ve used Danner Pronghorns and Ekebo hunting Boots for upland hunting, and they’ve been fantastic. They’re waterproof, comfortable for long walks, and provide decent insulation for mild cold. They might not be warm enough for deep winter, but for upland, they’re perfect.
