Been using the Tingley 5-6" overshoe. The local source does not stock them anymore.

What do you wear and were do you get them? Thanks.

I wear Muck boots when I don't want my good boots to get dirty.

How do they work in a stirrup?

I don't think make that there is no way in hell that would work well.

In that case I think I would get a pair of riding boots that I would use in the mud. Keep them oiled up with Obenauf's Heavy Duty LP and they will last years.

I have never liked the overshoes finding them more of a pain that good but that's just me.

I found these for you.

I spent a lot of years wearing overshoes over western boots. What a relief it was to shuck them off at the end of the day.

If I recall they do make ankle high overshoes that work well if the mud isn't too deep.

Roundoak, Lacrosse used to make good overshoes but I don't they make 'em anymore.


I bought a new pair last Spring, they are made by Servus(Honeywell).


Here is a link.

No way in hell I'm gonna walk in muddy chit 4-5 hours a day all Spring in just cowboy boots!

For some reason the link doesn't work. Just click on overshoes and you will find western.

I don't like overshoes either, but lime, manure, mud and water does a real number on leather boots. It was always a pain putting them on and taking off of lace up work boots. Went with western boots and leave the overshoes on and just boot jack the boots off in the mud room.

If you are not using then to ride than Muck is the way to go.

Just tried your link and it worked.

These are what Roundoak is looking for.

Those little gentleman's overboots might be good for about 1" of chit, 2" maximum....

Trust me, I am an expert on chitty mud.......grin

Not sure you could kill a mouse in a corner of the grain bin with a muck boat, you got to have pointy toes for that.

Yep, Sam has what I am talking about, although I could get by with only a two buckle overshoe most of the time. The chit don't get that high here on the hillsides.

Guess the days are gone around here where a man could walk into a farm store, shoe store or general store and buy western overshoes. Have to go on the internet.

Got a place not to far that sells knee high calked rubber boots for loggers. They would kill a mouse.

RO, I tried to buy a pair here in town. None to be found.

Store 50 miles up the road did have them.

Here's an option if you're gonna be in them all day long..

Yes, that would be an option for the colder weather.

I used to get a pair of overboots a size or two too big. Then I'd pull a couple pairs of wool socks over my leather before putting on the rubber.....

Muck brit colts are designed for riding, but are not as robust as their other boots. I use my arctic sport mucks to ride in but have overboot stirrups on my saddle. Works well for me

What size are you looking for?

I like the western boot 5-buckles, but have to wear the Tingley light-weights when riding. I have to use overshoe stirrups just with my boots - I have a REAL wide foot! I can get into a regular stirrup (barely), but can NOT get out in a hurry!

I almost forgot - our farm & ranch suppliers told me they quit making the Tingley "Boot Savers" in a pointed toe - only offered in a round toe configuration, now.

Mice are what the S&W 500 is for.

Darn, I have a pair of LaCrosse I was going to offer for the cost of shipping, but they're not your size.

If they over penetrate, I got a hole or holes in the grain bin.

Thanks for the kind offer.
Wayne

They're stamped 11, in case you think they'll work. Lace-ups.

No holes in 'em?????
