I'm thinking about getting some new cold weather boots that are lightweight. I have worn rubber boots of varying amounts of insulation for the past 30 years. Overall I have always been satisfied with how well they kept my feet dry and how well they handled long sits in cold weather. The one drawback being walking comfort on long walks. Having started hunting more public land in the last few years, I have found myself walking farther in to more remote places. I have been thinking about buying a new pair of lightweight, waterproof insulated boots that leather/cordura uppers. I have heard great things about Crispi boots, but honestly they are way out of my price range. I have been looking at the LaCrosse Atlas insulated boot. LaCrosse uses their Dry Core waterproofing and primaloft insulation. I was wondering if any of you had any experience with this boot or any other LaCrosse boots using Dry core. How well did it work for you? Did they keep your feet dry and warm. How does Dry Core compare to Gor tex? How about comfort? Please let me know your thoughts.
