Great video guys. One thing on Aigle boots: I have worn Aigle Wellington boots (as we call them in the UK) on nearly all my autumn/winter and even spring hunts for over 10 years. Aigle have some ankle support compared to other brands of welly boot and have definitely saved me over the years! I have walked over 17 miles in a day in mine with no problem of blisters or tired feet. Super well built boots and essential for any walked up bird shooting or deer stalking in wet conditions.
In Louisiana, I think most popular hunting boot is lacrosse knee-high or hip boots..you usually go through a good amount of water somewhere... ankle tight perfect snug fit ,, very difficult to remove from feet.. a little trick I've learned is to place feet in a plastic shopping bag... Boots slip off much easier..
None of the four models you highlight would have been ideal for most of the hunting I did, which was upland bird hunting for ruffed grouse, prairie grouse and pheasants. My partners and I needed light, flexible, marginally waterproof boots that had smooth bottoms that would not load up with sticky mud. If you walk many miles a day in grassy fields, marshes or thick aspen coverts, you don't want insulation. The classic LL Bean hunting boots (soft leather upper, flexible rubber bottom) were just about ideal. A pair would last a season or maybe two. We never found anything better.
@@awj03130 Winter hunting...... cheap winter boots, good socks, and foot warmers. Bam done. Summer hunting, regular boots, whatever is on sale and comfortable, bam done. Fall or spring, some sort of comfortable rubbers or your summer boots if they are water proof. bam done.
Axe one of the two heavier boots and include a lightweight shoe like a trail runners. Your feet, knees, and back will thank you. Theyre perfect for quick jaunts or around camp. My boot mantra is wear the lightest possible shoe for the job. You will be amazed how much quicker you move not clomping around in a boot that is far too heavy for the task at hand.
I loved it!! Been searching the net high and low for weeks and meat eaters hits the spot for all my questions about hiking boots vrs hunting boots. Great job guys!
I wear rubber, non-insulated knee high boots warm weather and wear light wool socks when temps in 40's or above. 30's or lower, I wear medium insulated, neoprene topped, knee high boots and wool socks. Neoprene is warmer than rubber and more quiet. I like tall boots I can tuck my pants in, wade across shallow creeks, and less ground scent. In early season, tucking your pants in your boots, reduces the ground insect (chiggers, ticks) funnel effect. I used to get clusters of chigger bites around my ankles wearing shorter boots with un-tucked pant legs. I haven't hunted with leather type boots in 30 years, but I don't climb mountains... thanks for sharing.
Nope. There is typically enough ground cover that a neutral colored boot will be perfect. Killed a few rabbits and upland game birds in my Schnee's (brown).
Not everyone is a mountain big game hunter! Regular guys going for small game, turkey, and white tail should consider MUCK or BOGS boots. Just decent for hiking but super comfy for sitting all day and staying dry in a blind or tree stand.
TotallyL337 I’ve got a pair of Muck’s but it’s not comfortable for me to sit in the stand with a knee high boot. I’m looking for something just as good but shorter.
This is a great video for those that have enough disposable cash for a used atv but want to spend it all on boots. Seriously I like Rinella but sometimes i get sick of them acting like their target audience is people that won the powerball.
Anybody hunt with work boots? got a pair that I am wearing now doing projects around the farm and there pretty comfortable, might use them for early season
@@josephjenschke7057 no, not at all. That is irresponsible and dangerous. I guess I learned my love of jungle boots in the Army. From 2003-2007. In the 101st Airborne.
Dont waste your money on non insulated boot. Just dont be a wuss and wear your insulated one in the summer. I wear the same leather work boots up here in canada all year round at work. +30c all the way down to -30c

Ankle support is for sissies. Wear proper shoes and let your ankles get properly strong, that way you have mobility. And I do have a lot of experiance hiking in the mountains to reach my climbing destinations.
I go naked with flip flop thong sandals a 243 no scope just iron sights a pack of camel crush silvers and a gallon of water.
Why so much water nancy? :)
@Bryce Kuhens youre white and 9 be quiet
add a couple dozen chicken wings, Melinda's hot sauce and your set, oh, and a quality cigar or three.

I would also highly recommend Hoffman pacs, I believe they also have a smooth bottom boot
Ok now I just need $1500 and I'll get right on to buying those 5 boots.
Cost more than that
@@TsiRoadkill Consider "used" boots, if you dare. There are some really good deals on ebay. Lightly used boots at like half retail price.

Another downside to felt-bottom wading boots is that they're illegal to use in some states/areas due to invasive species getting stuck to the felt.
Fuck those dumb laws
I find for cold weather bow hunting white Mickey mouse are the best. Especially for long waits in a tree stand.

This channel is great. Informative and entertaining. Thanks guys. 👍
I like Daner boots. Great video Dan.
Wearing danners now looking for a new boot they shrunk at least two sizes...but apparently I bought their china version
Thorogood 1957 flyaways work from Montana to Mexico 🥵 to 🥶 just adjust socks accordingly
Was curious about the brand name of the 2nd boot? Thanks for the video!
Me too.
Looks like a Meindl boot.
I would say Schnee's Granite boot
Kenetrex would be similar
It's a Swedish Lundhag boot.
Good information. Thank you for sharing.
Vaseline also works in a pinch pretty damn good.
For scent negation?
Nice video, lots of good information!
do you need camouflage boots for things like rabbits since they are so low to the ground? and I do plan on hunting in a mix of prairie and forest
Nope. There is typically enough ground cover that a neutral colored boot will be perfect. Killed a few rabbits and upland game birds in my Schnee's (brown).
what about for the Florida everglades.
Luis Mejia Florida seems to be always left out of any hunting conversation.....
Sandals or altama jungle boots. Florida is the only place I've hunted in America and those two have been indispensable.
Snake boots or rubber snake boots for Florida ....
Setters vapes 17s are what I use for NC coast snakes everywhere
Flip flops and a fan boat
Bro those lowas just need some tender lovin care. They would have lasted a lot longer! Did u use the Active cream and water stop every 6 months?
I am having a hard time decided weather I need insulated boots . Most of my hunting will be between 32 and 50 .
What brand was the second boot ??
Nice boots
Hi, can you recommend non-insulated leather hunting boots for tropical region?
Irish setters vapes short or 17s
What about using gaitors?
it is illegal to hunt gaitors here.... they are in danger

VitalyMack I've seen a lot of people carrying heavy loads roll an ankle. Ankle support helps.
you sound tough
Turd.
I dont got $2500 to spend on boots. Which one is the all-arounder I can invest in for my poor man's hunt?
