I've had them since last turkey season. I hunted all turkey season in them last year and deer hunted in them a good bit this year. I love how comfortable they are. Don't get it twisted though, they're not hiking boots. Hunting in the mountains they will wear out the back of your foot. Hunting flat ground they are fine.

Mine also won't zip up all the way on my legs without being uncomfortably tight. I have no issues with other zip boots.

The camo has worn off of mine on the top of the boots at the toe. I'll probably hunt them one more season and then send them back to be replaced.

I bought a pair of the Greenleaf Chene boots before last turkey season. I wore them literally twice and the camo finish on the front of the toe area was wearing off, exposing a whitish finish. I emailed them and sent them photos of the boots.

I contacted them and initially had some significant push back from customer service about replacing the boots.

After 3 phone calls and a couple of emails, they finally relented and called me back and said they would send me a new pair, which I requested in solid brown and they said to keep the Greenleaf pair as well. I plan on spraying them with some green and brown paint on the toe box and give them to my son in law.

They told me the boots had no warranty unlike their waders and again I had given up that they were going to make things right even when I told them that they were obviously selling a defective product.

The boots are very comfortable. No one really needs camo boots anyway. I like the boots a lot, but unless they have changed how the camo pattern is applied, I absolutely would stick with the solid green or brown Chene boot.

As someone else said, I wouldn't use them in hilly terrain, but if you need a very comfortable rubber boot, I strongly recommend their solid colored boots.
