    Schnee’s Quality Control Issues?

    I bought a pair of the Timberlines on sale during the holidays. On the first pair, the black leather near the eyelets was bunched up forming a roll. I sent them back and 2 weeks later got a replacement. On the replacement pair, the liner is sagging in the toe box and you can feel it while...

    Which boot for heel issues?

    So I tried Meindl comfort fit extreme and they seem to fit great especially in the heel area. Of course that all can change when I start going up and down slopes.

    Which boot for heel issues?

    I tried the timberlines in a 13 but my big toe barely hits the side...this would put me in a 14 which I feel like would make the boot way too big. I believe my brannock size is 13.

    Which boot for heel issues?

    Interesting....I just bought some Meindl comfort fit extremes and while they fit great in the heel, the toe box is big and the ankle/arch area feels too wide. I'm afraid that over time they will stretch out and not support as it's already borderline. They say order a half size down but they...

    Would the guide fit the same you think? I really want a tall boot

    Which boot for heel issues?

    I have an older pair of the quest 4d’s and they have fit pretty good without issues. I just really wanted a taller boot

    Which boot for heel issues?

    I tried Schnees timberlines and in a 13, my big toe is touching the side/end of the toe box barely so I sent them back. I was going to get a 14 but worried the fit will be sloppy. I really need a 13.5 but most companies don’t make one. The Kenetrek fit fine as a 13

    Which boot for heel issues?

    Yeah and almost like bruising on the back of my heel (like just below the Achilles’ tendon) from the pressure of the heel area. My heel is fairly narrow

    Which boot for heel issues?

    I bought a pair of Kenetrek Mtn Extremes last year and went through the break in period. They are terrible on my heels even now. I am a standard width but have a narrow heel/ankle. I also have mild Haglunds. My right foot has a larger bump than the left but it’s making finding a comfortable...

    Seek Outside Short tail vs Kifaru Stryker

    Yeah I agree....I just watched the video on their lid...man that material is noisy. I like the Merlin and it would likely work for me but I would still need a little more room during the winter and also want a little more organization

    Seek Outside Short tail vs Kifaru Stryker

    It's quite a bit to me too...I mean yeah I can carry 2.5 lbs extra....Im in decent shape but I don't train...so lightening a load will no doubt give me more energy to walk further in a days hunt

    Seek Outside Short tail vs Kifaru Stryker

    That's exactly my concern...I'm not worried about noise against brush, but if it's loud during the cold, that could be a problem. I mean it's not always 20 degrees here in Alabama but it does get cold. I tend to have to get into my pack several times during a hunt...either for food or...
