I am heading up to Alaska next month, does anyone reccommend a good hip boot, I prefer not to buy from Cabelas and try to give the business to a good quality company.

For a one time hunt any rubber hipboot should work fine. As long as it's comfortable. Hogdmon, LaCrosse, Calcutta, etc. If you plan on hiking a long ways you may prefer an ankle fit boot.
Good luck!

Ankle fit definitely, you know of a company online that sells a good one?

I'm partial to the lacrosse ankle fit. I bought mine locally so can't help w/ online sources.

I'll second the LaCrosse ankle fit hip boots, been wearing my Big Chiefs for 6 years now. When I get ready to replace them I will buy another pair when these are worn out. You can buy them straight from LaCrosse. http://www.lacrossefootwear.com/category/recreation/waders.do
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

zappos.com and shoebuy.com are good online companies with free shipping.
I've never shopped them for hippers, so don't know if either carries them.
If you take the time it takes, it takes less time.
