The best I have found for the money are made by Itasca. They're the tallest I've seen. I've been wearing a pair for 5 years and can't wear em out. The most comfortable I've ever worn and cost less than other brands.

Get u a pair of the alpha sports and u will throw rocks at the old green boot. Sole is much better even when on a shovel. I have wore many a pair of the old green boots knee and thigh both. I promise u won't be disappointed

I've had my chippawaws for a good while and I love them especially when I have to get in a lil water as long as it don't go over the top of the boot they stay dry. Only thing I dislike about them is if u have to take a dump it can Be a pain  those that wear them know exactly what I mean lol

Guys i avoid snakes like the plague, however bowhunting in the SOuth Florida swamps brings out moccasins like crazy.  No warming and been chased by more than one.  Hiking 3 to 4 miles from the truck to hunt, in the swmp means aint no ambulance gettin to ya, and you can describe a place to someone but that dont mean they know where you are.  Its all for peace of mind.

Yeah I don't know what the big deal is! Snake boots cost the same as regular boots. You'd have to be a dumbass to walk around in areas with a high poisonous snake population in regular boots when you could have snake boots. Live to hunt another day. Just my two cents!

I've had most all brands, and I like the Danners best of all.  My favorite boots which I still have two pair were called the "Danner Sharptail Covey Snake Boots" but I understand they have been discontinued.  I would google that name and see if I could find someone with some stock still for sale.  They are pricey, but in my opinion you get what you pay for.
