"my lung specilist doctor who says I have to walk a mile a day or 5 says cowboy boots are as good as any" If your doctor says this, I would look for another doctor. I have one pair of cowboy boots. If I took them hunting, I'd probably have my feet amputated | |||

I have lived and hunted here in Colorado for over 40 years. I have hunted at -10 deg. F and over 90 deg., snow well above my knees, mud, rain, etc. Don't try to make one pair of boots do it all. I usually take 2-3 pairs to camp, felt lined pacs, regular leather hunting boots and knee high rubber boots. It is better to have them and not need them then the opposite. C.G.B. | |||

The Crispi Idaho looks like a great boot for the desert, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu_nn9oAWN8 There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

There are cowboy boots...then there are cowboy boots.  Have worn nothing else my whole life and hunted all over the globe. Me and my boots just spent 3 weeks in Zim tracking ele. The same will accompany me this fall on upland bird hunts as well as whitetail hunting.Also wear them to work all day both outpatient and in the OR.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

I don’t doubt you Ledvm. I’ve never been a big fan but that’s just me. I actually have a pair of Justin boots. They are actually comfortable (for cowboy boots). I wear my Meindl boots year round. Personal preference, nothing more! | |||

I have worn meindls for years, both the Perfect Hunters and the Alaskan Mountain hunters. Last winter at the SCI convention I checked out and ended up buying a pair of Kennetrek Orthopedic boots with the steel plates on both side for ankle support. They have turned out to be the best boots I have ever worn as to comfort and support... They are pricey at near $600.00 a pair but with all the titanium in my left leg and ankle, they are worth every penny to me....

I also wear cowboy boots almost everyday of my life, even with my suits. Mine are mostly leather soles, except one pair I wear walking the pup in rain. I just don’t see myself wearing cowboy boots hunting while hunting that requires long walks over rough terrain. Although not cowboy boots, I did see in a recent issue of “Covey Rise” that Lucchese now has a lace up hunting boot, but I think they are about $400. I meant to be DSC Member...bad typing skills.

I just can't imagine putting my foot into much else. Today Ariat makes some wonderful soft-soled ones that I wear every day...fixing to head into the OR in a pair now for a long day of arthroscopic surgery. Since I was 5-6 years old...worn them 95% of my awake life. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.
