| I usually buy a cheap pair of rubber boots every 1-2 years from the feed store. I want to get a good pair that will last this time around. What are some good quality brands of heavy duty rubber boots that are somewhat comfortable (as much as rubber boots can be...haha)? I'm not talking designer boots to wear around town. I need something that will be used on a daily basis for ranch work, feeding, etc.
Thanks!!! |

Hey I like those, can you ride in them too without feeling like your stuck in the stirrups? And, well heck I will just google them, lol.. |

Location: mi | I always did the same thing. This year I splurgged and bought myself a pair of Muck brand boots. They have kept my feet dry and toasty warm on our already below freezing mornings. They came recommended by several of my friends who were getting at least 3 years out of them. |

I don't know if you're supposed to ride in them, but I do... I went to redwing boots and bought their insoles. I can wear these boots all day and they don't hurt my feet. Plus, under jeans they don't look to hokey |

THESE ^^^^
Love my Lacrosse boots. They have held up to hunting and barn work for several years. And they do not rub despite miles of hiking in the woods. |

Yep, I agree....I bought 2 pair on e-bay and they were lots cheaper than in the store.
Hopefully the second pair won't dry-rot before I need them!

Ditto to this!!!! Muck brand Chore boots. They are so warm and I've had my pair for 7 years now and they are still going strong. I wear them all winter and in the summer too when the dew is thick.  |

Location: Indiana | Muck boots are what I have used the last 6 years at least. Have only had 2 pair in that time. I wear them outside in the winter with just wool socks on and my feet stay really warm. I take my other boot out if I'm going to ride because they're too bulky to fit in the stirrups. A guy who does a lot of outside work here uses Lacrosse and he really says they are great too - and he just wears his wool sock in those too.

| Muck Boots. Get the insulated ones if you're in a cold part of the country. They're so wonderful for winter!!!!!!! |

I just got men's insulated. They lasted me for over 15 years. That is what my husband wears too. |
