Thread: Whats your hunting footwear????

Use (3)

Grisport Aoraki's - Highcut is good for the KM's tracks and mucky shite, Good bouldery stuff for ankles or mucky shite - but Useless tread on farms, tussock and grass going downhill good in scree and staying clear of Spaniard.

My Goto's are my Salomon (mid cut - GTX that has lasted 8 years but on last legs also)good all rounders and those with heel spur or sore archilles @Maca49) they did come out in a softer rubber variant - If the one in the shops tread looks shiny rather than dull - its a no go give it a scrape first on the floor to see its not a coating of some silicone spray or such crap - yep they do actually do that...

Final pair are my inov8 that are my quiet shoes and anything dodgy shoes e.g sheer slopes, creek bouldering, climbing shoes, round camp shoes Lite and small enuf that usually thrown into the top flap of my pack if not feeling comfortable traversing in the GRI's has rock climbing style sticky rubber bases or did have. they are completely awesome on everything long tread like soccer boots for muck, rocks, grass, whatever you can throw at them really.

Nearest I saw to these models have changed and prob got better are these...

Mine are dead but took 6 years to smash'em to pieces now last walk out had to rip off the flapping rubber sole bugger it. I'll take a shot for you - these things took abuse and said fark you! I even cut the lawns in them every weekend and we are on a ridge line where yes I push the mower.

Used by a likes of longest day and multisport rogaine runners.
