[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 272109, member: 3373"] I think no matter the brand, fit is most important. I had a pair of Meindl's for about 20 years. Loved them and then switched to Kennetrek's also for the comfort. I like them both because they seem a little wider and fit my feet. One son has narrower feet and his Meindl's don't fit as well for the reasons's they fit me. Hunting boot price sin't a priority for me. I want comfort and quality. The Meindl's I had lasted about 20 years with care. At the time I bought them I paid about $250. What is that, about $12.50/year. Initial cost was high but overall it wasn't. I'll buy a new pair of tennis shoes at least every year at anywhere from $50-100. When I bought my Kennetrek's I thought the cost was more than I wanted to spend and had settled on a pretty comfortable pair of Irish Setter's. Then I decided to try the Kennetrek's. Walked about 10 feet and knew which pair I was going to be comfortable in. If it's possible find the boots that fit you best and are most comfortable and don't worry about the cost so much. Everybody's feet are a little different, just because the boot is the most expensive in the store doesn't mean it will fit everybody the best. [/QUOTE]
