    Great video guys. One thing on Aigle boots: I have worn Aigle Wellington boots (as we call them in the UK) on nearly all my autumn/winter and even spring hunts for over 10 years. Aigle have some ankle support compared to other brands of welly boot and have definitely saved me over the years! I have walked over 17 miles in a day in mine with no problem of blisters or tired feet. Super well built boots and essential for any walked up bird shooting or deer stalking in wet conditions.

    In Louisiana, I think most popular hunting boot is lacrosse knee-high or hip boots..you usually go through a good amount of water somewhere... ankle tight perfect snug fit ,, very difficult to remove from feet.. a little trick I've learned is to place feet in a plastic shopping bag... Boots slip off much easier..

    Another downside to felt-bottom wading boots is that they're illegal to use in some states/areas due to invasive species getting stuck to the felt.

    Axe one of the two heavier boots and include a lightweight shoe like a trail runners. Your feet, knees, and back will thank you. Theyre perfect for quick jaunts or around camp. My boot mantra is wear the lightest possible shoe for the job. You will be amazed how much quicker you move not clomping around in a boot that is far too heavy for the task at hand.

    I wear rubber, non-insulated knee high boots warm weather and wear light wool socks when temps in 40's or above. 30's or lower, I wear medium insulated, neoprene topped, knee high boots and wool socks. Neoprene is warmer than rubber and more quiet. I like tall boots I can tuck my pants in, wade across shallow creeks, and less ground scent. In early season, tucking your pants in your boots, reduces the ground insect (chiggers, ticks) funnel effect. I used to get clusters of chigger bites around my ankles wearing shorter boots with un-tucked pant legs. I haven't hunted with leather type boots in 30 years, but I don't climb mountains... thanks for sharing.

    None of the four models you highlight would have been ideal for most of the hunting I did, which was upland bird hunting for ruffed grouse, prairie grouse and pheasants. My partners and I needed light, flexible, marginally waterproof boots that had smooth bottoms that would not load up with sticky mud. If you walk many miles a day in grassy fields, marshes or thick aspen coverts, you don't want insulation. The classic LL Bean hunting boots (soft leather upper, flexible rubber bottom) were just about ideal. A pair would last a season or maybe two. We never found anything better.
