Need recommendations for a good rubber hunting boot. Already had Lacrosse Alpha 2 times that didn’t last.

Look at Muck boots

I wear a size 15/16 so Lacrosse is really what can only fit

Le chemeau, the leather lined rubber boots will wear you out before you can wear them out. Best damn rubber boots available!

I have muck boots and Irish setter rubber boots. I have size 14 flat feet and the Irish setters are more comfortable.

I just stick with lacrosse grange knee highs, I get 3 seasons or more out of them for $75. I had some of the other lacrosse boots but the sole separated from the upper.

I have the Irish setter rutmasters for when it’s below the 40s, but they have been discontinued. Started using water proof thorogoods more when it’s cold.

You said you had the alphas by lacrosse. Ever tried the alpha burly pro? These are on sale right now for $130 when all the cool camo colors are $250+. I usually get a few seasons out of them before the sole starts coming unglued, then I just glue them back. The camo starts fading after a couple years, so I went with the ol faithful green. I got these pros and the 800g for 260, I figured that’s a good deal for what they are. The stretch better for my big calves and are lighter than they look.

Because Lacrosse are Chinese plastic. They don't use rubber anymore. Gumleaf are expensive but will last years.

Gator Waders

I got a pair of these a few years ago and they have been great. Very comfortable and have held up fine.

I wear LaCrosse rubber boots. Don't know why, just what I have. I generally don't wear rubber boots except when fishing or it's a muddy mess feeding cattle.

I prefer a lace-up boot whenever possible.

Irish setters for the W. I grew up in Lacrosse boots, have had every style they make at one point. In the end they are just cheap Chinese made rubber boots. They dont last, period. I bought a pair if IS right at 3 seasons ago when the new LC Burly caught a hole walking across dry land from a stick. I have put my IS thru it all. not a problem one.

I just threw away my muck boots that I have used during hunting season for over 25 years. Only because the bottom fell off in the mud and I couldn’t find it. I have reglued the bottoms back on several times during the life of the boots. I just bought a new pair. I hear they don’t last these days. They look and feel the same.

Walmart carries some Muck Boot knockoffs by Ozark Trail that I prefer over Mucks. Damn good boot for $50.
