Lightweight Hunting/Hiking boots, what do you like?

I have had a pair of these for the past 6 years:

I have resoled them and rub them good with Huberds.

Browning made 8" Kangagoo skin field boots that worked
well. Haven't seen any recently.

Russell Moccasin are the cream of the crop upland hunters.

I have a 20 year old pair of Gore Tex Irish Setters that I still love but I don’t put the miles on them you do. They’ve been great from the Georgia piney woods to SoDak snowy corn fields. Similar to the link above but mine have Cordura upper panels for lightness and breathability.

There ain't much difference in the man I want to be and the man that I really am.

I’ve had good luck with Keens for the last several years.
They’re supportive, comfortable and last.
The tread seems to have good grip and all the surfaces I been on.

I like the Merrill Moab boots; they have a GoreTex liner so are waterproof. If you don't want waterproof, get the Vent model.

These newer lightweight boots are great because they do not require break-in.
