Hello,
I was wanting to know if anyone is using the Alphaburly Sport Hunting Boots for coonhunting. How warm do your feet stay in the non insulated boots. I am wondering how cold my feet will get when it is 10 to 20 degrees out.

Thanks
Matt

Had the sports last pair of boots I had and they were plenty warm and super comfortable but they cracked in the front and the back in about 6 months. This time I went to the cheaper pair that is a little more flexible, they are AWEFUL i hate them. Next pair will be the sports, ill buy a new pair every 6 months if I have to.

I bought a pair of Alpha Sports about 4 months ago and the sole has already separated from the boot. I'll never buy LaCross boots again.

I have a pair of the LaCrosse Grange boots, I love them although they are not insulated so they are way to cold on the feet for late fall/winter. I've had them for well over a year now and they are still holding up.

i've worn out two pair of them. and have a third pair. in the end they failed when i stepped down from a log and a stick caught the upper and ripped it. same thing for the second pair but in a little different way. i'm still using the third pair. i like them. last summer i bought a pair of off brand rubber boots. they don't have the ankle fit and flopped up and down. i got used them too and like them. they're easier to get on and off and only cost $40.00 on sale.

I bought some LaCrosse burly's with froglegs sewed to them and I got to get a new pair this year finally. They lasted 6 yrs. and I loved them. Wear a pair of wool socks in them and I was just fine. Chaps were the best too.

the past two years i have went thru 3 pair of huntn boots. two pair of them where muck boots and i do not recomend them. i have had a pair of lacrose alpha burly they have lasted bout 8 months but my socks always end up at my toes. they need to make them in 1/2 sizes, and reinforce the heels on both brands.

i like the insulated burly, not the alpha..the burly doesn't have the best traction. but its the only boot i found that will last a decent amount of time..my alpha boots pulled apart on the soles but i mended them with aqua seal and seam to be better than they were new..atleast now i don't feel water trickeling in on my feet when crossing water..
