For anyone in the market for a pair of good snakeboots, cabelas has 'em for $99.99! They were $129.99 when i got a pair last year! Anyway, they are true to size, waterproof and comfortable! Just a heads up :z-winnersmiley:

I went through 3 pairs before I gave up on them. Leaked like a screen door

I guess i havent ever had a problem with my snake boots leaking and ive owned various pairs! When i get 'em new in the mail i wade in a creek behind the house and walk 'em dry to break 'em in! After they dry i scuff them up good with a brush and use a waterproofing agent! Come to think of it i do that with all boots i buy and they seem to stay waterproof for years!

I use Atsko Water Guard Extreme for all my boots! Make sure they are somewhat broke in and make sure you rough the outside of the boots slightly before applying as it helps the boots absorb the treatment better :z-winnersmiley:
