LaCrosse AeroHead Hunting Boots

Oklahoma is known for having unpredictable weather. Most of the time when I go out hunting, I have to trudge through plenty of mud and water. I feel the perfect hunting boot should do two things: they should keep your feet dry and they should be comfortable enough to wear all day without causing any foot pain. With boots in the past, I have found myself sacrificing one to get the other. I usually stay away from rubber boots due to their discomfort and stiffness. This sacrifice saves me from blisters and sore feet, but only until my feet get soaked and soggy. Nobody wants to spend their hunting trip worrying about having wet, cold, painful feet.

This is why I highly recommend the LaCrosse AeroHead Hunting Boot. This boot is not made of the same rubber as other hunting boots. The AeroHead boots are made from a neoprene core that is coated with polyurethane. This gives the boot much more flexibility compared to other rubber hunting boots, and the comfort is unrivaled. Also these boots are rated for temperatures as low as -30° Fahrenheit.

When I first got the AeroHeads, I was not sure what to expect. I was shocked at how lightweight and comfortable they were once I tried them on. This is a boot that is as comfortable as it is rugged and durable. After sloshing through puddles of water and thick mud, I can say with confidence that these boots will suit any conditions you throw at them. My feet remained bone-dry no matter what I walked through, and there was not a blister in sight. This boot is a perfect combination of form and function. Rarely do you see a hunting boot that is this aesthetically pleasing and equally useful in the field. The LaCrosse AeroHead Boots are a must for all hunters.

Quality

The adjustable back gusset and Ankle Fit design help make this boot very comfortable and of an extremely high-quality. The neoprene and polyurethane combination are far better than most common rubber boots. The boot looks great and will take years of punishment without wearing out.

Reliability

These boots are made of high-quality materials, and they will survive through the harshest of conditions. They come with AeroForm technology for comfort, and they are liquid rubber sealed to ensure they are 100 percent waterproof. After taking them through mud and deep water along with thick brush, they stood up to everything without fail.

Price/Value

At $130 they are not the cheapest rubber hunting boot on the market, but they are worth every cent. Also, LaCrosse offers their customers a warranty on all of their footwear, making these a great value.

Referability

Anybody who enjoys having warm, dry feet while out in the field should get these boots. Any hunter should be happy to have a pair. They are the most comfortable hunting boots I’ve had yet.
