Trade it for a cabelas card and get the cabelas lace ups. I've had mine 2 years and they are still 99% waterproof. I haven't seen a boot that was 100% after a year. They might make some but I'm not spending $300 on boots. I have also had good luck with the Cabelas lace ups; sometimes they are on sale for cheap. Got mine for $89. Only $109 regularly.

If I worked regularly in areas where I knew snakes to be abundant then I'd probably have some custom ones made or go with the Chippewa if they fit right. Would only take one time getting popped. I guess it's like a safety harness ... no one thinks they need it until they need it.

Dang, thats a good price. I just saved that site into my favorites. Same boot I had, but I was dumb and went with the 25111, steel toe.

I don't know if they carry Chippewa's, but I bought a pair of them before turkey season last year and really like them. No leaking at all so far too which is a first for a pair of snakeboots for me. They are expensive though They do but didn't see them in any camo color. Not so worried about that during bow season but turkey season is a different matter. And yeah, they are about $100 more than the other brands. Dr. B You don't need camo boots. Never had my brown chippewas cost me a bird. Now, there are about 1000 other things that did but the brown boots wasn't one of them. LOL  The first pic of these boots were a little more two-toned than I like.  I found another pair that was brown. They are certainly proud of them! I like that Tyler website though. Dr. B

LaCrosse strikers are bad. I have owned a ton of snake boots and by far the best are Rocky's.

You can buy waterproof socks, the zippers are worth it not to have to lace them every time.

Went and looked at BPS last night. They have a boot trade-in program on selected boots. Bring an old pair of boots in and get a discount on a new pair. I didn't buy last night because they didn't have my size. Will keep looking.

Anyone who wears the Chippewa boots, are they cut narrow in the toe or is the Wide style pretty wide?

Definitely check for waterproofness. I have some of the BPS-branded snake boots w/ gusseted zip on the side and they're comfortable but definitely not waterproof.
Nope definitely not! I have a pair also.
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!

I don't have a wide foot so I'm not the best to answer probably. I got the regular width boot and it fits me perfect. It's definitely not too tight in the toe area. The ankle area is a little tight at first, but I like having some support there.
