There have been some truly great advice on this subject off and on. I took a pair I had. They were unlined mid high camo wolverines. They were ballistic cloth and I took gators because of thorns, seeds and my own paranoia about snakes. Although the advice differred between companies refferenced, one thing remained constant and that was to bring unlined boots that were broken in and comfortable. I used wolverine because they fit mr well, and it is also my choice in a leather duty boot. Russel makes fine product too. If you use a particular boot here for hunting/hiking, get its unlined twin for Africa.
Just my two cents worth, and I am not at all an expert, or even that knowledgeable.
