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.

Can’t be beat when it comes to uninsulated boots, even though they aren’t as good as they used to be.

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.

Just got them for $130 also. I can't fit in the regular green lacrosse. Too narrow.

alpha burly pro
Ive had 2 pairs of AlphaBurly Sports in camo, and one pair of AlphaBurly Pro in green… most comfortable boots Ive ever had. All three pairs, the sole came off within the first year. I clean and pick my boots/waders up in closet whenever it’s not hunting season too.

Since then, ive had 2 pairs of Magellen knee boots over the last 7-8 years (on sale $23ish). Pretty frickin comfortable for the price so I just got a pair of magellan ankle high on sale for $17 a couple weeks ago. I leave the Magellans outside by the door all year long or they’ll stay in my truck too.

Sometimes that saying “you get what you pay for” isnt always true.
