Tried the Kangaroo boots once a long time ago..Great to walk in....however found them lacking for ankle stability on uneven ground.
Mentioned earlier, the fit and support of the Lacrosse alphaburley type boots have improved tremendously. The come with and without insulation....if there is any chance of wet or snow they have become my first choice and have found nothing warmer. Nor do you have to worry about drying them out. A pair of extra socks handles any situation where your feet sweet.
Had to go thru a cattail area last year and just sloshed thru with the high Lacrosse. With leather I would have been over the tops.
