Sodhopper moccasins offers a sole made of tire crumbs and Barge cement that you can apply yourself.  G. Fred mentions the same type of sole in his book on stillhunting.  I tried it on a cheap pair of Ataska mocs that I had and it definitely helps with traction and also makes the bottom more water resistant. I looked at lots of different mocs and I think the Arrow are the best for the money.  They are very well made and would probably last years.  If you applied the tire crumb sole they would be even better in my opinion.  

I needed a custom fit because of foot problems, so I went with the Russell minimalist design with a thin Newporter sole and could not be happier.  I wear them year around for work, too, though, so I'm not just buying an expensive hunting boot that I only wear a few times a year.
And in the end of our exploring we shall return to the place where we started and know that place for the first time.

Bengal,

In my experience, yes. My foot is exactly a 10 and both of mine fit perfect. He recommends going up a size if you are a 1/2 size.

stabow, You might want to get the picture of the smoke pole off the thread or there going to pull it.

No pictures of Wheel bows or guns should be posted on Tradgang    :readit:    ;)

Really? The pic is for the mocs, not the weapon. It would be a shame to remove, but whatever keeps the integrity has to be the rule I guess.

Great mocs stabow!
