True enough, lightweight and a pleasure to walk in, wear out way faster than a cheap pair of socks. The soles on the pair I had were suitable for sidewalks on a dry day, nothing more challenging. It is hard to find good pheasant hunting boots these days.

I've been wearing Meindl boots for a while now. I'm very happy with them. A friend likes the more expensive Crispi boots. A high rubber rand seems to be crucial to long wear and moccasin toe construction is pretty much incompatible with hunting in decent cover of any type. There are a lot of boots sold as upland hunting boots with totally inadequate tread as well. I have no idea why they do that.

I have been wearing mine for years light tough really comfortable .I went back to the store in Wisconsin and bought another pair these were not cheep boots retail about 300.00. I use them for everything every type of hunting.

Lowa boots are the best boots for everything pricy but great

My dad had a pair of Kangaroo boots. They were expensive, and he loved them. We have no mountains here, and he was not the guy who willingly stomped cattails in the snow, but, he had them for years. They were light, more of an early autumn boot. He understood what they were for. He was old enough when he got them that he was doing more blocking than pushing, and he would bring them along when he went goose hunting, just in case the weather went bluebird on him.

They were almost green in color.

Glad he had the chance to have them. Can’t understand why a bureaucrat thinks it is his job to tell a man what he can wear on his feet.

Best,
Ted

Pretty sure both Brent and I hunt Pheasants the same way, lots of walking, often through CRP fields which wear out Kangaroo leather fast. Great boots for blocking on an early autumn day though, no denying that. No argument from me regarding the stupidity of outlawing Kangaroo leather in CA.
