I'm in my 70s and have to be very careful about not falling and tripping and need good footwear. I bought a pair of Le Chameau Chasseur leather-lined boots some years back and they made an incredible difference. My feet are large and I always had trouble slipping on Wellies but the long gusseted zipper solves that problem. The boots are incredibly tough - they barely got scuffed in the sub-Arctic tundra. The treads really grab and are non-skid, even on wet sloped rocks.
Something to remember - not all the dealers or catalogues will mention this - the boots are not only sized for foot size but they do come in different calf sizes as well. I didn't know that until I bought mine which are a little snug in the calf.
Mine have now been thru four seasons' hunting and I still marvel at them. In my opinion they are worth the price.
