I just ordered a new pair this week from huntsmart.com. I hope I get 15 years out of this new pair. However, the lacrosse boots can be heavy and a pain getting them off.

My Lacross boots are probably 14 years old or more. I am thinking of replacing them as my right arch is killing me in them. Problem I hear is that the new Lacrosses are made in china and are not the tight ankle fit as the USA ones.

I read somewhere that someone just bought his third pair of Wicks Lacross boots over the years and for the first time he had a blister. He called Wicks and they said it was because the chinese boots fit differently.

How are the areces on the three choices?

Over the past 15 to 20 years I had worn LaCross, but this year my wife bought me a pair of Much. I love them. Lighter and seam to fit better. They may not last a long, but I'll go for more comfort. Thanks Valley Creek Hunting Suppy and my wife Mary

I've had about 3 pair of the muck boots and love them. I wore one pair until they had no tread on them at all. I wear mine bow huntin sometimes and the temp. is about 20-40 degrees and my feet never get cold. If I can recall the muck boots are supposed to withstand up to -15 below 0, I may be wrong though.

i can tell ya that the alpha lite 3.5 are not all that great in the winter ....they freeze my feet if its below 30 ...i wish i would have gotten the 5mm instead...but they'll do fine this spring and summer....if they hold up well enough, i will go with the 5mm for winter.

so far so good as far as quality.
