Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What's your favorite work boot?

I have a pair of Red Wing work boots that I can wear all day long - and when I take them off at night, my feet feel just as good as when I first put them on.

Keen sandals, but then I don't 'work' anymore.

i wear nothing but merrel shoes and hikers. best shoes i ever owned

Keens.. I don't care where they're made. Good boots..

what he said.....been wearing them since before they started calling them Pecos...

Red Wings are one of my favorites but there is something they use in their leather that makes my feet break out in a rash and itch like all hell! I have tried switching back to them several times over the years and get the same damn results every time.

I love Rockports since my mom has worked for them for years. They are super comfortable, but I wear them out fast. I'm trying to stockpile them as she is about to retire.

RickyBobby. The best pair of boots i've found that are light, non steel toe and comfortable are a pair of Altima desert combat boots. They are made in USA and cost me 50 bucks new. They have lasted well, and i would definitely buy another pair

Wesco. I've used lots of Red Wings (which are increasingly Chinese-made) and think they're WAYYY overrated. Wesco (as well as White's) beat the f*ck out of anything Red Wing.

I have problems with my feet and ankles from playing year around sports when I was young. I have wore all kinds of boots but the brand that I wear now and they are the most comfortable boots I have ever wore is Georgia Boots. They make all kinds of boots. They are actually more comfortable than my sneakers and I buy very expensive sneakers for the support. I love my Georgia boots. Rocky boots has bought the company and I hope Rocky does not ruin Georgia boots. Good luck with your choice.

IMO Georgia was already ruined years ago...
I started wearing the wellington style pull-ons about 15 years ago, loved them. Waterproof, comfort core, more comfortable than slippers, concrete all day. Usually got two years out of a pair,
wearing 7 days a week.

Loved them so much I put up with the sole problems they had for a couple years, coming apart early. Watched the same boots climb in price from 60-something to over 175. Now they dropped that model, can get comfort core OR waterproof, but I can't find the old model that had both. And China made.

Said phug 'em, went with a pair of Justins, only thing I could find that didn't look totally glued together like a pair of sneakers. Felt good in the store, but 170 pissed away, so bad I can't wear 'em after a few weeks.

Don't like laces, ride MC as primary transport year round,
but gotta find something else!

White's packers
Wesco Boss for riding the motorcycle

Boulet(Canadian) makes a decent boot for a good price.

I wear them 9 months out of the year, Schnee's during the chilly months.

Been a few years since I had a need for them, but I used to swear by Rocky 9.11 boots. They were light, never had to be broken in, and lasted for years.

I like Red Wing's 875 and Pecos boots but also have a pair of Danner Rain Forest that are just about indestructible.
The Rain Forest's are allot more boot than I need since I retired but I still wear a pair of Pecos boots when I don't have my slippers on.

+2 --- Got them on right now

I still have a pair of the original (pre-Walmart) Herman Survivors hunting boots - an Icon!

Double H Wellingtons.

Best ever...

for lightweight boots I vote for Keen. For a solid workboot, I have been using the Cabelas logger in brown. Great fit and they last a long time.
