Gander Mt in Beaumont would be the closest place to find what you are looking for. Suggest Lacross,Muck, in the 800 series thinsalate or head to Lafayette Shooters in Lafayette.

I have the Lacrosse Alpha Burly 1000 gram that I bought at Nichols and love them. Have heard a lot of good about the Muck boots though. The Lacrosse are cheaper.

What kind of hunting you doing? If you're deer hunting & theres briars, muck boots (the upper part) don't like briars!

The new Irish Setters look nice. I have the Alpha Burly Sports 800 grams. With the right socks they are hard to beat. I would go somewhere that sells Mucks, LaCrosse, Irish Setter and Rocky and see which one you like best. it is almost like buying a bow. Each pair fit each person different.

Knee high Muck's can't be beat. Artic Sport version ($100.00 2 years ago) is what I have for sitting in a cold duck blind. Keeps feet warm and easy to walk in. Look @ Hanks clothing online. When I bought mine Hank's were cheaper than Cabela's. Look at what some ot the reviewer's at the Cabela's and Hank's are saying about Muck's and you'll see what I mean.

Muck boots are awesome. Have a pair of Arctic sport Muck's--they were around $100.00 2 years ago. Great for sitting in a duck blind in cold weather. Keep your feet very warm. Very comfy to wear and walk in. Got mine from Hank's Clothing online. Cheaper @Hank's than Cabela's. back then. Muck has different styles and you may not need some as insulated as mine. Neoprene type upper material as someone else mentioned would probably not hold up well in briars but I'm not using them there.

I use Rocky [Lynx] #7290, 15" snake boots for Dove & Pheasant, even deer... very comfortable, for the exception of the left boot, around the ankle, has to be broken-in more. Paid a little over a hundred for em. They're 1,000 Denier Cordura
Nylon w/ full leather grain upper, warm & waterproof, Anyone have a solution for breaking-in a stubborn boot?
