Thread: Hunting Boot Options.

I bought a pair of Hunters Element Zulu boots 6 or 7 months ago when I wanted a cheapish softer/lighter pair to knock around in for work, easy tramping and bush stuff and keep the wear off the stiffer LaSportivas I use for more serious terrain.

I don't have anything bad to say about them so far - they're comfortable, waterproof, solid enough, reasonably light, full rubber rand etc.

Time will tell how they last long term, but they've done a good few miles and aren't showing any signs of weakness yet. Some of the other HE boots had pretty obvious design flaws though, like seams right on the widest part of the boot where it takes the most pressure and wear.

I think everything Ridgeline I've ever bought has had stitching and/or zips fall apart in pretty short time.
