My guys on the farm wore them. They all liked them. For about 4 months every year we basically wore knee boots all day every day. Before we got these boots everyone would take every chance to put on regular boots. With these they put them on in the morning about 7 and took em off about 8 that night

This is what I wear. The rubber outer layer helps keep briars from hanging neoprene.

I didn't look at the exact model you are talking about but I would suggest you don't rule out the Muck boot brand.........I have a big fat foot 13 EE and I never could find a comfortable rubber boot until I put on a muck boot. might want to check em out if you are in the market.

I need boots bad just don't wanna spend an arm and a leg. I've heard good things about the $60 Lacrosse. I'm looking at those. I had a $120 pair of boots and they didn't make it 5 months. Got holes all around the bottom. I'll check out the muck boots. I wear a 12 EE usually.

My calve's are to big for muck boots. They cut off my circulation. The ones I linked to above I have wore for 4 or 5 years. Most of the camo has worn off by now. I do know lots of folks that like the muck boot tho. Biggest complaint I have heard is tread pattern doesn't offer enough grip.

Dang thats suprising, i may have a different model that what you have tried, only reason i say that is because they were one of they few my calves fit into good lol. Who knows, kinda like huntin dogs.... Find what works and stick with em.

Lacrosse has always been my favorite, although I've never tried that series, next time I need boots I think I'm gonna give em a shot

The ones I tried were just regular muck boots no gusset in the back. I don't know if they offer different styles now or not it was before I bought the lacrosse boots. Like u I say find what works. Not everyone's feet are made the same or have the same gait so what works for me may not work for u.

I picked up the Lacrosse Grange today. I know several people that have em and you can't tear em up. They are just plain green 18'' boots. $65 bucks

I actually had to get a size smaller in these for some reason. The ankle fit thing is nice though. It's definitely snug and don't slip when they are on. They are hard to get off once on

Been wearing the Grange boots for 10 years.......well 2011 and 2012 they stayed in the garage when it was not muddy enough lol.  I love them.........keep them in the garage so they don't dry rot and they will last 5+ years.  18 inches makes a big difference as to how much water you can walk through. they are not bulky............ you can stalk deer in them like moccasins.

The Lagrange boots have been around for ever. They are good boots. They are probly the best overall sales boots in the country. That are actually wore by the ones that buy them. The white chicken boots don't count. Lol.

Yeah I gonna keep em put up. I like that they are tall, I can't stand shorter boots that I get my feet wet in. For $60 bucks you can't beat them.

Thigh high grange boots are everywhere around here. Knee high we can get at Simmons or Mack's sporting goods. They are both big waterfowl outfitters. The thigh high boots are common for use in rice fields.
