I went to Kamicks. So far so good!

Funny thing, I was shopping for a boot jack to help get my muck boots off the other day and they didn't know what the heck I was talking about. I thought everyone knew what a boot jack was.

I am making them per order for my son who is giving them away to his hunting buddies and some of his clients.

Dad made me one years ago when I really did not need one, now that I am older and not as limber, I should be using it, but wife does not like the clutter of too many things by the door...

In the pacific northwest Muck boots are very popular. When LaCrosse ceased USA production of their steel toed high top milker's boots I fretted and resisted the new then Muck products. I have worn them for years now. I get two or three seasons and buy a new pair. There are three or four different sole configurations that seem to do the public real well around here. I think they are a real good boot. Friends say their Boggs are real good for a couple dollars less.

Isn't that the truth on both accounts!

Here in Maine the Muck's are the best. Ok, they only last 2-yrs. in the brush but they fit and are warm.
if you ware wig-warm socks.

Regular lacrosse-type rubber boots don't really compare to Muck boots. They work great for what they are, but you can wear Muck boots all day. If you did that with rubber boots your feet would be soaked in sweat. Also, Muck boots are much warmer and more comfortable.

First of all... even though it doesn't really matter... it's Bogs not Boggs. Started in 2002 Eugene, Oregon. Do like them. I don't the history of Muck but here are the Muckmasters that I absolutely love. YMMV. It really boils down to your specific use. Water, muck, warmth, comfort... haven't found better. Haven't snowed in them though but they are warm with proper socks.

I would never buy footwear or any clothes for that matter without trying on... well maybe underwear excluded. But Mucks for me run small. I'm an 11 tennis shoe but 12 boot with big socks.

I guess I am a Muck fan;I have at least six pair and wear them year round.I have three pair dedicated to hunting(three levels of insulation),the rest are work or leisure.I have extra wide size 10's feet and have a hard time finding anything that's comfortable;Mucks work for me and for sure are not the most durable. If I tear them ;Goop is my repair.

You sound like you work for the company! But I have to agree, I am a fan too.
