    Need Swamp boot advice

    Need some advice on a good pair of swamp boots. I made it through the holidays with less spent than I had thought, and the wife OKed me getting some new boots.

    I am looking for a reasonably priced pair of high boots 16" or up, that will last more than a year or two. Insulation is secondary to comfort and waterproofness. I have looked at the boots online, and am leaning towards these... http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/te...030&hasJS=true

    but I can pick up these locally but reviews dont leave me very confident. So any one have a pair of good swamp boots that they recommend??? http://www.gandermountain.com/modper...ID=4015&r=view

    For everday use, the plain old black concrete boots sold at the hardware are hard to beat. But for mild to cold weather I like Mucks.

    I would second the mucks. A buddy of mine got some and wanted me to try them out so I put them on. They are super lightweight and feel like you are walking on a cushion of air, waterproof, and the tops are neoprene to help keep you warm. My next pair will definately be the Mucks and I think he paid $90 for them.

    recommend the Mucks as well but I also own a pair of red head (Muck knock offs) that are pretty good too.
    If you can spare the extra $ you won't be sorry with the Mucks

    Well, sounds like its pretty unanimous about the Mucks. I have two places in two that sell them. Will go try on a couple and see how they fit.
    I have a big hoof, so finding my size is a PITA. Defiantely need to get a better pair of boots than the 6 inch boots I have been wearing into the swamps.

    Thanks to all for the advice.
