Boots?

We love to talk about what bow we are hunting with or what broadhead we are shooting. I was curious about another important piece of gear. Boots! What kind of boots do you usually wear?
Early season, I wear some old scent lock boots. When it gets colder I wear tall rubber boots with heat packs. I also like my old pac boots, but they are about worn out and need replaced. What is on your feet?

The 12 inch high LL Bean Maine Hunting Shoe. Toe warmer heat packs when the thermometer falls. Great boots.

I wear either Danner Ft. Lewis for colder weather, or in more temperate weather LL Bean Maine Hunting Shoe with the Gore-tex liner.
I'm finding with the looser fit of the Bean boot, I can wear them in colder conditions than I originally thought. They are also quieter when walking, due to the softer sole.

A hunt based only on trophies taken falls far short of what the ultimate goal should be . . . time to commune with your inner soul as you share the outdoors with the birds, animals, and fish that live there.

Down here in FL I wear Rocky snake boots. They're pretty comfortable and the sole material has a little give, so they're not too too noisy. I want to get a pair of knee high custom moccasins next though, for more ground feel and stealth. I admit, its not easy stalking in snake boots, but I get by.

Russell, Merrill, Rocky or other lightweight boot in early season (some of them have plantation crepe soles for stalking). Then Kenetrek mountain boots or Schnee's pac boots when things get cold. Kenetrek or other lugged sole, full leather mountain boots in steep or otherwise rugged terrain, regardless of the temperatures. I always wear merino wool socks these days, even for daily wear with my street shoes.

I have a pair of Danner pronghorn that fit my feet well and I think are a good boot for the money. I'm wearing my first pair of Russell's as I'm typing this (breaking-em in). I think I'm going to like them.....quality materials...we'll see how my feet like them....:^).

Light weight running type shoes when stalking or elk hunting early season, russel's or Danner Pronghorn, then 1000 gram thinsulire Danner Pronghorn down to about 15 degrees, then LaCrosse Ice King Plus for really cold (don't know if they're still made).
Hard to beat the Danner Pronghorns.

Early season I like my low Vasque hiking boots... Usually wear them during late season as well.
Heard good things about the under armor speed freaks but I'm not into higher boots.
