Wear several pairs depending on the situation:
   -Lacrosse Grange when water is inevitable
   -Chippewa Snake Boots when in snake country
   -Crispi Lace up when covering miles out west

 Lacrosse alpha burly uninsulated most of the time. I had a pair of rocky silent stalker sneakers that I  wore for years but they had to finally be retired.  My next go to is a pair of Salomon x ultra 2 hikers.

I have worn many different types of snake boots for many years, but after moving to western North Carolina I have changed my footwear. For me snake boots just don't do well in the mountains so now I wear my Keene hikers and the turtle skins snake gaiters. I am happy with the decision so far. I'm seriously thinking of getting a pair of Crispi boots in the future.

I wear rubber uninsulated Lacrosse Aeroheads. I walk an average of 160 miles in turkey season then hunt a 3 month long deer season.

I used uninsulated Lacrosse Lagrange rubber boots for years with no issue but wore out the soles in 2-3 years. Switched to Alpha burly uninsulated because they are lighter, had a hiking shoe footbed and used them for a good many years. Changed from those when I started seeing cracks at the ankles after two seasons. Switched to Mucks for a while but those didn't hold up to well in the long haul. Two pair of those leaked after water got in somewhere at a rubber seam and tracked to the inside back of the heel via the neoprene. Reckon the neoprene ends there and is not sealed very well.

Irish Setter, Vaprtrek Snake Boots
This is what I wear as well.  Comfortable not exactly waterproof but not heavy like a rubber boot eithier.

I have wide feet. Irish Setter makes great Waterproof Turkey boots. They stand behind them too. Had the Gore Tex breakdown after warranty elapsed. They still replaced them with brand new pair. Great, comfortable  boots...

Hmm maybe I need to email customer service and see what they can do.   My feet get wet from walking in the grass now

I've been wearing keen targhee II hikers the past few years, but this year I'm going with some crispi Wyoming's. I really like how well built the crispi's are.

I also have some Irish setter vaportreks that I wear occasionally.

Danner Pronghorn snakeboots if around a lot of snakes
Browning or Danner insulated if chilly
Danner uninsulated for hot weather and few snakes

Lacrosse. A set of lacrosse rubber boots generally last me about 2 turkey seasons, sometimes 3. I had the alpha mud lites when they still made them. One of my favorites . Currently have a pair of alpha lites which they have also quite making . Don't know what my next pair will be. This was my year using rubber conditioner so maybe they'll last longer . If they don't I plan on making the investment in russel moccasins and being done with it for my lifetime .

Lacrosse grange is just about the best boot for any kind of hunting if you like dry feet. Although I have some lacrosse alpha agility's coming to give them a try. Mack's PW has them on sale.
