my field report is they are nice and lightweight,comfortable,great for small game ,deer hunting gun and walking etc but for archery hunting i like the rubber bottom type pack boots so the deer wont smell me or the boots..had this happen to me before a hard lesson learned..had a buck walking right to me i can remember i had on leather type hunting boots with non rubber soles,i stepped on a man hole cover out in the woods 15 yards before my tree,the buck was coming sniffed that manhole cover and boom he was gone in a flash..i like these boots but ill stick with cheaper rubber pack boots for archery hunting,

the better quality boots and clothes you buy the more time you can spend in the woods. learned this lesson years ago. the thought on the rubber boots now is your feet sweat in them and we know what happens them . instead get some that are made of a material that breathes and your feet won't sweat as bad. ;D

ive had a pair of cabelas master guide boots that cost 100 bucks for 6 yrs now ,and my next pair will be the same .i had rockys and i personaly dont think the newer ones hold up anymore .i also have a pair of danners that i swear by for warmer weather hunting .
