OK, my "is 65* and overcast" comment was tongue in cheek. Great replies guys.

I'm wondering if a guy could wear waterproof hunting boots and gaiters instead of knee high rubber boots? I've never worn gaiters either, BTW. If I go the rubber boot way, I can find nothing bad about the LaCross Alphaburley 800g boot ?

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
