How Danner messed up a good pair of boots...

They discontinued my favorite shoes too. :grumpy:

Recently bought a pair of steel toe boots from Cabela's. They are Irish Setter 6" Work Hikers, not Cabela's own brand. They look nice and are comfortable, but the design is horrible: they stupidly used a mesh around the tongue, so water pours in. :mad:

I do not recommend these! :thumbdn:

Those are a nice looking boot. That's to bad they used nylon around the tongue:eek: You gotta wonder wtf they were thinking. Nothing worse than a boot that leaks, and having wet feet all day long...


Both of those companies have been around a long time. They aren't cheap, but they are very well made, and you know they will actually fit both of your feet.
 
Just got a word back from Chippewa's CS - they do not recraft their boots. I was instructed to find a local cobbler for any work needing to be done.
 
I have had some Chippewa Men's 6" Chocolate Apache Steel Toes for a short time, wear them in the field and enjoy them

I have had the wolverine 1000mi boots longer, and can't say enough about them
