[QUOTE="Traxion, post: 296149, member: 983"] Thanks for the recommendations. Couldn't sleep last night and was going through reviews....that was a mistake. Then today I called around to some of my hunting buddies and that too was a mistake. I'm certainly a buy once cry once type shopper, but I'm not sure which way to go. I wear Keen's as a daily shoe, they last about a year and I'm fine with what I get. But I would never call them stiff or ever think of them as a hunting boot. Not durable enough. I LOVE Salomon running shoes, but the Quest GTX gets great reviews other than the fact it doesn't stay waterproof. WTF, a Gore-Tex boot that doesn't stay waterproof? My Keen's do better than that. I had one good pair of Danner's and the rest have been shit. I also tried Cabelas Meindl's on and never found the fit I wanted. One of my buddies has the Lowa Renegades and the sole is coming off year two. Seriously? The Vasque Breeze III gets way poorer reviews than the II's. It seems no matter the boot I looked at, regardless of price range, none had clean reviews. Going to just have to try a bunch on and cross my fingers I guess! [/QUOTE]
