Been looking at a bunch of snake boots and really haven’t narrowed it down any further than when I started. I’d love to find a pair that’s for everything (mud water, spring time and hunting season weather) but if there not a option for all that I’d say for sure waterproof and snake proof. Not really worried bout price if they are good boots. I had a pair of the Justin boots but they got so uncomfortable I couldn’t stand to wear em and I wouldn’t consider them waterproof 100%. Already came across a snake yesterday so it’s time to go ahead and get a pair. Thanks in advance

Irish Setter Vaprtek Snake boots. They will fit your criteria and are one of the most comfortable boots I’ve owned right out of the box.

Irish Setter Vaprtek Snake boots. They will fit your criteria and are one of the most comfortable boots I’ve owned right out of the box. I concur with this. However, the only downside to the vaprtreks is they will leak sooner rather than later. The best pair of snake boots I ever owned was the Muck Pursuit Cool Snake boot. I got three years out of them turkey hunting and bow hunting.

Look at the danner options. The sharptail, I believe, was a great boot, but it didn't last me but a year, but they replaced for free. I wear my snake boots every day though, so they're put through more abuse than the average person.
I had a pair of chippewa's to begin with and sent them back. The right and left boot were a .25 size difference, and made overseas soemwhere, so I said no to them.

Just made the switch from Chippewas to Danners and am very happy with them.

I've gone through a few pairs of Justin's, I haven't treated them nicely and they've all held up. They absolutely need a new insole in them before you start wearing them.
Know a few guys with Danners and they swear by them.

Wore my Justin's yesterday. Still effective. Insole addition is important.

I have the Ariat Snake Boots and love them. I used to have Chippewas and they worked for years, but these are much better. More comfortable and water proof.
