I hate to send anybody to Wally World, but I discovered that the waterproof
steel toed work boots work great for me. I have a bad foot that I smashed
in a motorcycle wreck about three years ago so I need the support of a good
boot anyway. For some it may be too much foot wear for a day ont heir feet,
but I thinkt hey are great. As long as I don't submerge my feet they stay
dry. On those occassions when I have to submerge my feet like pushing off a
sandbar my feet still are pretty comfortable in these boots when wet.
Sorry, I don't recall the brand, bt they are clearly marked as waterproof.
They are cheap too. Running $40 or less. I would buy some mopre expensive
boots, but the guys in the outdoor stores that sell them don't seemt o want
to try and help me find a boot that fits.

I usually buy two pairs at a time, and I change every day from one pair to
the other. This gives a chance for sweat to dry out of the boots before the
next time that I wear them. They last a lot longer, and my feet stay dry
day in and day out. Also, I don't get a foot odor problem this way. I
never wear the same pair of boots two days in a row if I can help it. These
are the same boots I wear every day working. I do light construction, and
offcice work so my days can vary from spending all day sitting at my desk to
spending all day climbing up and down a ladder.

Int he past I would usually get 6 months out of a set of foot wear. By
switching back and forth with these boots I get a year and a half to two
years out of them. I do tend to wear out a lot of boot laces.

I am looking for a water proof shoe to wear when fishing in my boat. The
rain suit I have keeps me dry but my feet get wet. I would like to find
something comfortable to wear all day and easy to get off and on.
Lacrosse
makes one called Halsey. I cant find anyone local who has them in stock
so
I can try them on. Anyone have any suggestions for other shoes to try?

Thanks,
Kevin
