Hi guys, I'm wondering what you think are the best boots for hunting elk in wet conditions. I've been hunting with a friend for the last 6 days (I got mine on opening day 11-6-10). We've had mixed conditions with snow and rain and my boots only hold up for about the first 2 days, then after that they are wet!!! My friend has 3 pairs so he can switch out when one gets wet. I think his are danners with goretex and mine are Lacrosse. Thanks for your help, BSA.
Which ever boots buy, consider a pair of good waterpoof/breathable gaitors over the top of them, and you will be a lot drier.
But as others have said, regardless of how waterproof your boots are, your feet are going to end up damp from sweat, even with goretex lined boots..
