For me, it depends as well. I don't get married to any one shoe or boot and have used most of them without issue. Later season hunting slop, I often favor as minimal a boot as I can and the same with spring slop. Summer and early fall, it is usually some sort of trail runner that dries quickly a couple pair of socks. I'm on the fence with camp shoes , and usually end up without. How do I handle water crossings ? I get wet, but I dry. Neoprene socks can keep you warmish even if you are wet, but I don't take them that often either.
