[QUOTE="gareyg, post: 2209253, member: 78874"] Uninsulated Danner Pronghorn, gen 5. Would be a very good choice for you I think. I've been using the original version, the same pair of boots, for many years hunting tough country (Texas, Mississippi, Idaho mountains, Northern Cali). The latest generation went back to the original version like I use for a more comfortable "athletic shoe" fit. These boots are tough! Well designed, breath great (100 degrees Texas hunting, and mine are insulated), are very comfortable standing and walking 12 hour days hunting. Bone dry always with a goretex bootie. If you actually do get any rain or water and your feet get wet, you won't have a very good day, so definitely stick with goretex. PS: Interesting story. I lived in Oregon (30+ years ago, before the metro areas turned into liberal sh7tholes). Talking to the reps at the factory store in Portland, they told me they initially had a problem with timber firefighters, because their heavy boots were so well insulated, they couldn't tell when their boots were on fire. I worked in the woods in the summers during college back then, chasing timber fallers. All the loggers wore Danners. [/QUOTE]
