I have used Muck Wetland boots for almost 10 years. They are slippery on occasion. Looking for something with a more flexible sole that has better grip . Any Ideas?

You bet, I have a pair of LaCrosse 1200 mucks, they easily take it ALL in stride.

Corked xtratuf's. Just don't hurt yourself, Lol. They have the airbob sole as well. Never used the insulated version. Pair of good wool socks will keep your feet toasty. http://www.hoffmanboots.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=9%20XTUFF

How easy is it to remove and put on a Lacrosse boot?

I've got Muck's - agreed, slick tread design, but easy on/off.
And I have Irish Setter Men's Rutmaster non-insulated, and sat in the 20s with no issues with heavy wool socks. They are very warm for me as is.
However, the Rutmaster can be a challenge to get on and off if you are mobility-limited. The foot portion will get a good seal on your foot, and it's a one-legged dance to pull them off at times.

How easy is it to remove and put on a Lacrosse boot? If you get the knee high rubber boots it isn't easy at all.

I just bought some LaCrosse Aerohead 1600g/7mm. They are rubber bottoms with neoprene uppers. They have an adjustment strap at the top that makes them easier to get off once it is loosened. They are way too warm for our current temperatures but should be nice on a late December deer stand. I tried them out briefly washing my truck in 35 degree temperatures and my feet quickly sweat so these are going to be a cold weather/cold water boot only. I haven't worn them in snow or ice but the soles look to have some decent traction. My pair of original LaCrosse rubber boots is finally coming apart after about 20 years so I am a big fan of this company's durability. This is the one. http://www.lacrossefootwear.com/aerohead-18-realtree-xtra-7-0mm.html

My hips are messed up, so I find a boot jack indispensable at times.

Never have had a problem putting on my Lacrosse Burlys with air bobbed soles.

La Crosse has a rubber boot that is very warm. At 50 degrees it is too warm . It seems to have good traction. I think they were 7mm .?
