Rocky Men's 16" ProLight 1570 Snakeproof Hunting Boot

Absolutely the best turkey hunting boots out there. I considered buying these same boots that zip on the sides but was afraid of the zipper binding around my ankle. Glad I went with the lace up! My smart watch tracks my steps and it's nothing for me to put 50-60 miles on my boots during a turkey season. I hunt multiple states and these boots have held up great! I also spray with water proofing and can step through creeks and stuff and stay dry. I wouldn't wade in them but they'll keep your feet dry if you're smart about water crossings. Highly recommend and when these wear out, I'll buy another pair!

I have had these snake boots for a few years now and to say they hold up well, would be an understatement. Where I like there are thick saw palmetto bushes, briars and let's not forget the snakes, all of which claw away at the materials and laces of whatever you are wearing, it is a tough environment and these boots have met the challenge and held up well. I wear long soccer type socks when I wears these so my legs do not get chafed...they do seem to run large I guess in case you want to wear thicker socks, so that is something to keep in mind. Also, I have come to appreciate using a cushioned insole for comfort if they are going to be worn for a long period. Be aware though, if you are wearing these for any length of time they will get HOT... extra socks are not a bad idea and as much as they keep the water out....they will also keep the sweat in so plan ahead. Realize too they a bit heavy, of course they are heavy, these are tall boots made with premium materials....but that is something to think about if you are planning on running around in the woods all day. I had started off with a less expensive pair at first which quickly failed, then I get these instead and let me tell you they have far exceeded my expectations.
