Whats every ones go to shit kickers ? Mine wont see any shit unless i accidentally step in a pile . I've been a muck guy for probably 10 years and they are still holding up except the tread on the bottom is getting worn. I did see a different brand that i would like to check out before i buy . I would like to get a new pair of something non-insulated before October gets here.

I have 3 pairs of mucks with different treads that I have stashed different places (dumptruck, work truck, camper) and they are ok.

I bought a pair of bogs on sale and as long as they are available i won't buy another pair of mucks.

They go on easier, have handles to pull them on, and are so much more comfortable than any muck I have had.

I do have a really wide foot and it might just be me but I swear I don't want to take these things off at the end if the day.

Mucks are nice. So are Redwing 2233’s. I’ve been buying Twisted X pull on boots with decent luck.

I rarely use any rubber boots because hay will fall into them when feeding. So I just wear Twisted-X or Ariat boots with that tough sole in whatever is out there, water, mud, bone dry, whatever. Keep two pair and rotate 'em if one is too soaked.

And I expected to see a Barn Find near new pair of shiny Hi Point boots. Oh well. Continue on.

I have a few different boots but when it's mucky/muddy or snowing I wear my Sorrels. For most everything else I have a couple pairs of Keen slip ons that I rotate. They work for just about everything and feel like slippers, I wore them to a funeral a few weeks ago and now I'm shoveling shit in them.

Any Rocky boots.
Been a Mason for over 40 Years, work out in the elements all 12 months.
I was turned onto them when we finished up a Basement in knee deep mud/water in Michigan and a friend took his boots off, his socks were dry as he put them on in the morning.
Bought a pair next day....Never looked back.

Muck boots are now made by someone else. I have already tossed my 3 week old 130 buck mucks. They are now a joke, barely touch the side of a dozer track and they rip like a knife thru butter. Customer service was rude and pretty much said to bad, you wanna waste some more money.

Temps in the low 20s this morning ,I'm getting ready to head out for a second bird and I'll be wearing a brand new pair of arctic pro mucks that I bought last year. I did some more digging around and found the original owner of muck started a new company dryshod a few hunting sites gave them good reviews . My old muck boots were made so well.
