Snake Boots

[TxGiant]

Irish Setter. They're made by Redwing. Waterproof and they're like wearing tennis shoes. So comfortable I wear them in the winter as well. None of the other brands will fit around my calves.

Have you had any issues with the tread on the bottom wearing out fast? I've been reading reviews and that seems to be the biggest complaint.

Chippewas bar none, they're the best for sure!

I'm curious why they make insulated snake boots. I figure once its cold enough to need insulated boots I'm not worried about the snakes anymore.

They're only mildly insulated (no hotter than any other snake boot I've worn) and I suspect has more to do with waterproofing (think fleece lined bootie) than warmth. In any case, I'm only wearing them as I got them at a Justin Outlet store for $86.

Also, as another poster noted, they're great for cactus and thorn protection too.
