Everybody’s feet are different. I tried to like the acadias and ft Lewis boots. Couldn’t do it. Rockies are always comfortable for me, but they never last a year. Been wearing Haix last couple years and so far I like them. I wore the Hathorne and Buffalo smoke jumpers for years and years, but switched over to the sneaker boots awhile back.
Also, if you're tracking people you need to wear REAL moccasins.
Gotta remember that. I just got my deer hide back from the tanner. Maybe I should whip some up. Hair in or hair out I wonder?
Hair out for traction on snow and slippery rock.
Straight leather soles suck on slick stuff.
I used some steel toe protector stuff, like bedliner, on the bottom of my hunting mocs.Probably work for popo jobs.
