    Lacrosse 4x Alpha, had for a few years. Waterproof and still semi breathable.

    A friend that kills turkeys in the NC mountains like it’s his job turned me on to hiking boots and gaiters this year and I doubt I ever go back to a tall boot. I paired a set of keen waterproof hikers with some kuiu gaiters this year and I swear it took a full second off my 40y time. Feet didn’t hurt at the end of the day, feet didn’t get hot, stayed dry, etc. Bonus is you can lay the gaiters flat and soak them in permethrin nightly.
    Are the Kuiu gaiters snake proof? I don't see anything about that on their website.

    I've had these for 4 years. Working on stands Saturday in shin deep water, no leaks.

    Lacrosse Grange with a turtle skin gator over them worked great for me this year. Get the comfort of the grange and have snake protection as well that weigh nothing.

    I'm on year 3 of my Sharptails, the liner just pulled out of one of them last week and I can't get it back right to save my life. Mine started leaking this year but I didn't take good care of them. They sure are comfortable for a snake boot though and I put a many of miles on them.

    Muck wetlands work fine for me. I got hit by a moccasin one spring two years ago in the shin of the boot and that was only because I stepped directly on him.

    I considered snake boots after that scare but like stated earlier that occurrence was extremely rare. 5mm neoprene and pants tucked behind it give me plenty of comfort

    I’ll be danged if I’ve got to lug a heavy/clunky pair of snake boots around the woods all day.

    I wear ankle socks in my Danners, had them on for 6.5 hours Saturday, very comfortable.

    I loved my muck and lacrosse rubber snake proof boots but neither lasted two full years. I hate lace up boots and won’t ever go back.

    Currently using plain old muck wetlands as pasture and flooded area boots. Theyre quite comfy but not snakeproof.

    I got Muck Wetland Pro Snake boots for $155 at a local feed store this morning. Couldn’t find such a thing online recently.
