Thread: Hunting Boot Options.

hey tried on some boots today- H&F have HE Echos on Sale for $120- had a wear around

Went to GC- they had Highlanders for $150- light as a feather- gore tex, felt like they lacked the support in ankles i kind of need due to my ankles..

tried on the HE Lima an wore around, Got a bit of a discounted price off RRP and think il head back Sunday to buy those- look like they'll do what im after- felt stiffer all over an in the ankle section.

Got a good Deal on HE Lima boots, so walked out in a Pair of those today-
and a new Mossberg

Did you even take anyones advice and have a yarn with sarvo??

Hey guys that have the talan boots, how do you rate them? I'm looking at getting my first pair and for $150 they're hard to pass up. Also would the mid season be too hot for summer? Or am I better off getting the summer boots, then a winter pair later in the year? Cheers.

I've tried a few different boots now. Some in the $500 range. They all seem to kill my feet on long ascent up steep hills. Only seem to have luck with skellerup Ashley's or boonies kaimais. Using the boonies atm no sore feet or blisters yet.

I’ve got the mid season ones, fine for summer.
Bloody comfortable, I’m happy with them.
