Hunting in South Florida most of my life snakes are a fact of life. So is walking in shallow water which puts you a little higher on the strike zone. You learn to watch where your stepping and it becomes habit. I first bought a pair of Russells but I thought they sucked as they were not that comfortable and they where hot and heavy. I been wearing Rocky lites since they came out. We walk mostly on sand down here and a flatter bottom is more comfortable. They are breathable and light weight. I also like to wear them in alabama where I hunt now. They keep your legs warm and offer a bit of protection up to your knees. They are a pain in the butt to put on and take off. I never found any zip up or slip ons I ever thought I would like.
