It depends how you hunt. Guys who wear backpacks or hunt mountains and out west won't like them. They're not meant for that style of hunting. If you still-hunt the Northeast (apparently down south as well) there's none better. They specifically have a thin sole that helps you feel the forest floor when walking slowly. I have the 16 inch models and they are great for this. I also have Lacrosse Alphaburly's and heavy, vibram soled hiking boots. I always leave them at home when hunting the Northeast, the soles are too thick and heavy.
