Mucks for me. 15yrs on the first pair. I ripped the toe and thought it might leak, never did. I debated on the LaCrosse Burlys myself but stayed with the Mucks because they are sooooo comfortable. I think comfort is more important than the "rubber or neoprene" debate. I tried a couple of other off brand boots BPS and Cabelas thinking I'd save some money and they'd be just as comfortable. They were not! JMO. Good luck
