Leather boots w/chaps

What vendor has this cause i want a pair! Tired of these rubber boots springing a leak after 6 months. I've tried Lacrose, Muck, and the Dewey and not one pair have lasted like they should for 120.00 a pop.

I'm assuming the leather boots are waterproof but if someone has owned them let me know what you think of them.

Most comfortable boot I've ever wore, but only got about two months out of them before they started leaking. I treated them regular but once they started leaking even treating didn't work.

I got the Lacross work boot that valley creek offers. Hunted about 3-5 nights a week in them for almost 20 months. Had to break down and buy another pair around November this year.

Haven't had any issues with leakage with either pair.

Very comfortable boot as well.

for summer hunting i use lacrosse wellington on chaps. but you have to keep them oiled or heavey dew will gradually soak thru when walking thru high hay ground.

Valley Creek lacrosse with pro chaps you have keep them sprayed or oiled or your feet will get damp but they are comfortable.

Thanks- If I get a pair of the leather I do plan on sealing them consistently. I live around alot of rivers and consistently go for swims around here, if they're submerged walking through streams and what not will they leak?

I'm assuming they would if they get damp from walking through wet fields.

I can handle my feet getting damp occasionally but if its every night thing theyre prob not going to work out.

Really liked the leather boots til I tried a pair on...what do you do with your pants leg? Cant stand it bunched up on top of the boot.
