    i use to like ashleys calf high until this one time i backpacked about a hundred kms up the poulter river in canty. by the time i got to where i wanted to go i had two deep rings around both legs which of course became infected and pussy.great i was there for a few days and it made my trip hell. so when i returned home i threw them over a steep bank. never worn ashleys since. still have the ring around one leg.

    For about 20 years I wore a pain of van walk that lasted really well. The I bought a pair of asolos that lasted 2 outings and the soles disintegrated. Now I wear a pair ok Haix boots that only cost $125 and were broken in for me by some poor sap in the German army. Also got a brittish gortex jacket that although named I don't think was worn, do soldiers not like the rain? Really happy with my boots, just a shame the kiwi diposals shop isn't still going. My oldest daughter has a pair of the same boots but in a slightly smaller size.

    Whats your hunting footwear????

    Having a good run out of gronells at the moment. Half the price of meindls or lowas and have lasted longer.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Re: Whats your hunting footwear????

    Boots all depends what an where you hunt so most people have different ideas. I like a good stiff boot when you kick a hole it you know it's going to stay there, put big load on you know your ankles are thanking you for them. Always been a mendill man but have alsolo sassonyons? Spelling, . . . Scapas escape an lowa tabeits
