either wesco or whites

danner quality has gone to crap imo. i won't buy another pair for what they're asking unless the quality returns.

Rocky makes some great and tough boots for reasonable money. Danners are real nice, but I won't shell out that kind of cash for boots that wear out like the others anyway. Never wore em, but I hear many, many great things about Schnees boots too.

lacrosse for hunting and i got some carhart work boots about 2 months ago so far i like them alot so far.

Red wings for work, and Rockies for hunting!

I wear bogs for hunting and farm work their similar to muck boots but cheaper and alittle less warm. which is good for all year use in my opinion. I have a pair of ariats for casual wear and wouldnt take nuttin for em, and when i aint wearin either of thoses i wear a pair of wolverin steel toes.

Well, I'm too poor for whites, but I know lots of people who love them. Also heard good things about Nicks boots.

don't know, I have rocky's bear claws with 800 grams of thinsulate, have had them for 10 yrs and still in great shape, might be another 10 yrs with them.

Interesting post. Been wearing LL Bean Maine Hunting boot for years. Leather uppers---rubber bottoms. Same pair for twenty years. Had the bottoms replaced by LL Beam twice. Believe it cost about ten bucks.

Baileys logging supply sells some boots made in Canada called red Dawgs with or with out steel toes. Everything is triple stitched I'v had redwings, Rocky,Danner,Wolverine. These seem to be the best I've had yet for all but cold winter work.
They are also pretty cheap on chain saws and equipment.

Danners.

Matterhorn. Similar to danners, a bit more expensive but well worth it. There Ranger duty boots are the most rugged and comfortable Ive ever had.

My Redwings saved me from a 33" COPPERHEAD today. I stepped right on him. I jumped about 10 feet and screamed like a little girl.

Red Wings for work and Bear Hunting.

Lacrosse Ice Age for deep snow and ice fishing

I wear white gum boots to work at the dock, and in the boat. Like the Royal brand with some gel soles. Doubt this is the recommendation you are seeking.

Out where I live its the only kind of boot anyone wears. Seen them in church even.
