Title: Snake Boots Post by: reburn on March 16, 2008, 04:40:43 pm Ok I figured I would take a poll here. I am thinking about buying some new snake boots. I have a pair of Chippewa’s that lace up. They don’t make them any more and I had to send them back 3 times because they started leaking. I liked them but they leaked all the time and were as heavy as wearing ankle weights on my feet. I would like to see what people are wearing and what they like to wear. I know it’s a good bit of typing but if ya'll would take the time to fill out the little form I think we could get a good thread going.

They were terrible. Uncomfortable, lace-ups were unbelievably difficult to get on/off, and leaked like a window screen. Sorry, I don't know the exact model of them, but hopefully I'll have better luck next time. My father in law has been trying to talk me into a set of the Russell snake proof moccasins. He has a pair & the're bad to the bone, but I just can't see myself spending $500 on boots. Sorry, as far as reviews go this probably ain't the best.

For the price I figured what the heck I would try them, and I have been VERY pleased. I would definately buy them again (and pay full price!) |
